Ka Mate version of the Haka Ka Mate! Ka Mate! Ka ora! Ka ora! Ka Mate! Ka Mate! Ka ora! Ka ora! Tenei te tangate puhuru huru Nana nei Itiki mai Whakawhiti te ra A upa..ne! A upane kaupane whiti te ra! I die! I die! I live! I live! I die! I die! I live! I live! This is the hairy man Who fetched the sun And caused it to shine again One upward step! Another upward step! An upward step, another..the sun shines!

there was a problem at a sporting event with the dancers supposedly blocking the exit and the typical police over reaction was to spray pepper spray which got on the players and the audience excellent capture
