what did you like about the song? I like how it is very catchy.
what did you like about the video? How there are many shots of New Zealand's beutiful scenary.
Translation from some of the lyrics? E Ihowā Atua,
O ngā iwi mātou rā
Āta whakarangona;
Me aroha noa
Kia hua ko te pai;
Kia tau tō atawhai;
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa


. O Lord, God,
Of all people
Listen to us,
Cherish us
May good flourish,
May your blessings flow
Defend Aotearoa



Mareikura

He ātua he tipua

Wairua

Who preformed this? Maimoa ( and twelve others)
Why did they create this? Wairua is a song encouraging ones belief in their natural instinct or spirit, we call 'wairua'. At times of adversity and hardship, it's that very natural instinct that will direct you. It's by trusting in that 'wairua' you will reach your full potential, so let your 'wairua' soar...
what did you like about the song? The song is stuck in my head.
what did you like about the video? The different people were eye catching.
Translation from some of the lyrics?
Te wairua tukuna ki te au
Te wairua tukuna kiarere
Te wairua te wairua hemawhaka aue
Waihoa ma wairua koe e kaue

The spirit sent to me
The spirit sends instant messages
The spirit is the shattering spirit
Make a living with your friends

Translation from some of the lyrics? E rere ra e taku poi poro-titi
          
Ti-taha-taha ra whaka-raru-raru e
               
Poro-taka taka ra poro hurihuri mai

Rite tonu ki te ti wai waka e\

I'm running my bicycle poi
          
One-way problem-solving is
               
Pocket-shaped ball rotation

It's like that of which waka
