We are learning to use Te Rakau for the stick song 'E papa Waiari'.
Here are the lyrics if you want to practice:
E papā Waiari,
Taku nei mahi
Taku nei mahi,
He tuku roimata
Chorus:
Ē aue, ka mate au;
E hine hoki mai rā
Ē aue, ka mate au;
E hine hoki mai rā
Māku e kaute
Ō hīkoitanga
Māku e kaute
Ō hīkoitanga
(Translation:O Elder Waiari
1. O elder Waiari my habit has been My habit has been to shed tears
Chorus:Alas I will die; oh girl, return to meAlas I will die; oh girl, return to me
2. I will count your footsteps I will count your footsteps )

Check out all our ideas!
