NZ OPEN WELCOME PARTY, ARROWTOWN 2016

After 5 weeks of absolute determination and commitment, our roopu welcomed the world to Arrowtown with one of the most polished performances a roopu from our school have EVER given.

Congratulations to our performers and tutors.  Thank you to our wonderful community for the tautoko and an especially warm thank you to Stephanie MacDonald who has tirelessly worked on the costumes for our group this year to bring them up to a standard that we were able to perform in with pride.

Kia ora koutou katoa!

WAIATA HOU MO TE POHIRI

NGA IWI E  - ARCHIE TAMANUI

Kaea: Nga iwi e                                                  All tribes
Katoa: E karanga e nga iwi e                              The people call
Kaea: Kua eke mai nei                                        As they come onto
Katoa: Kua eke mai nei ki runga te marae e       As they come onto the marae
Kaea: Mauria mai ra                                            Bring with you
Katoa: Mauria mai ra e ngá mate o te motu e      Bring with you the deceased
Kaea: Me ngá tini roimata                                    And weep over
Katoa: Me ngá tini roimata e maringi whánui e   Tears flow across the land
Kaea: Titiro e ngá iwi                                           People take note
Katoa: Titiro e ngá iwi i ngá mahi o te motu        Look at what is happening
E hora ake nei e                                                    Throughout these islands
Táne: Rü ana te whenua                                       The land quakes
Katoa: Rü ana te whenua, whati ana te moana     The land quakes, the sea breaks
Kaea: Aué te aroha                                                Oh what love
Katoa: Aué te aroha te mamae i ahau e                 Love and pain I feel
Táne: Rü ana te whenua, whati ana – Hï!             The land quakes, sea breaks – Hï!

It is a song for welcoming visitors to the marae, ALL TRIBES in this case.
The message is one of supporting each other, whatever difficulties lie ahead.
