Hi, I want to talk about Haka. Haka is traditional folk dance from the Maori of New Zealand. And it means dance and song with dance. Expression is important for leader of Haka.
For example, Pukana: showing white of the eye. Weru: pushing lower lip out.
The most well-known Haka is "Ka mate".
Watch the Movie!!!
－Lyrics－
☆Ka mate! Ka mate! (Tis death! Tis death!)※Tis mean it is.
Ka ora! Ka ora! (Tis life! Tis life!)
(☆Repeat)
Tenei te tangata puhuruhuru (Behold! There stands the hairy man)
Nana nei I tiki mai, whakawhiti te ra! (Who will cause the sun to shine?)
★A, hupane! A, hupane! (One step upwards…another step upwards)
(★Repeat)
Whiti te ra (The sun shines!)

OMG! I thought this dance was Brazilian cause we also have this dance in Brazil, and here it's called "Dança do Siri" which means "Crab dance"! It's extremely popular here. BTW, nice blog!
