Waiata tāwhito

Tēnā koutou whānau. So last year I came across a waiata on youtube. I thought we would give it a go for our school kapahaka group.  Does anyone know if we are allowed to sing the waiata. Check out the link. The Matua twins & Grace Takawe
Why not aye?


Hutia te rito o te harakeke
Hutia te rito o te harakeke                                         Kei hea te komako e ko
Ki mai ki ahau
He aha te mea nui te mea nui o tenei ao
Maku e ki atu kia koe
He tangata, he tangata.
If the center shoot of the flax is pulled out
Where will the bellbird sing
If you were to ask me
What is the most important thing in the world
I would reply
It is people, it is people, it is people.

Have an awesome weekend everyone.
