It’s called a Karanga it’s a ceremonial call

It’s called a karanga it’s a welcoming done by the women to welcome manuhiri (guest) in this case because we hosted the women’s World Cup this year it was a welcome to the Australian team and all other teams in the tournament.. The Black ferns won the World Cup in that tournament to

​@user-gu4tv4hp6swill you shut up bot.

This is dumb!

Back in the day, when the All-Blacks would come to England, you couldn't hear the players on the field as the whole crowd would be screaming Swing Low Sweet Chariot at the top of their lungs. To fear the haka is normal. To cower before it is unforgivable.

Being Māori I can tell you that when haka is performed in this setting it is an acknowledgment of the bravery and prowess of their opponents. It should be well met. The opposing team should also be inspired to feel heart, body and soul their own pride of country and know they absolutely are worthy opponents and that they will give everything they’ve got. Of course there’s a constellation of aspects from the Māori pantheon of gods to the actual and practical as well. Funerals, graduations, war, peace, weddings, there’s a haka that can be eloquently composed and magnificently performed for them all. The principle wahine Māori knew their te reo and had great singing voices. Tihei mauri ora!

I hope in next 50 yrs Tibet will be free and in its full glory. Namo budhay.

@@Fontana-sb9uiI bet you don’t have the balls to say what your country you come from🥱

Look for England or Germany find your roots

I'm a 28 year old indigenous American and everytime I see someone perform haka it brings me to tears. My culture is your culture, we're all here on turtle island, we're all brothers. We just need to tune in together.

Same. It really makes me emotional. It’s beautiful, scary and in tune with one another.

What about any cult of American Indians in states ?

Wow. I envy anyone who sees it in person! That must be awesome.

I know right!! One thing I love about the haka is the look of ferocity on the performers faces

Did they win finally?

That's fine but who won?

Did They win?

They are going into battle! Remember this! It could be with swords or a rugby... respect the tradition.

@@yayaseen127 I wasn’t disrespecting it 🙁

i know you werent being disrspectful ::) i was just making a statment .

@@FeminineAroma Is it not Beutiful ? I love the HAKA and would love to see it in person .

@@yayaseen127 Oh, okay. Just making sure because I’m American, and it’s already a stigma Americans have with not respecting others’ cultures. 😅 But the culture of Pacific Islands is very beautiful, and I love learning about it.

can you translate it to english

Yes! This is Dumb AF

Not only you are blessed, even I have the same energy at my home

@@user-rc7og3cy2y 👍😅

Quit leaving the seat up.

😂😂😂

@@venkatvenkatesh8411 😂😂

This is not really a traditional one they had to make one for the woman because the other ones are masculine and woman weren’t aloud to do the Haka traditionally

@@ruthlessgaming3869 im saying how they have remained traditional generally. But i hear you.

@@ruthlessgaming3869 I'm guessing you have no idea what went on there??? Karanga, whakatau, wero - 100% appropriate & traditional. Yes, wahine haka, though its different to the men. Perhaps leave the cultural explanations to those living the culture.

@@mostpeople_ I am Maori

@@PipiakaMe-bx3uh yeah women did do a different haka but it was different to the male war haka’s and look your tribe can say that they had women warriors but from all the research I’ve done on the musket wars there were no women warriors but women did follow the war parties as camp followers on campaigns to keep the men company and cook and for Tapu ceremonial reasons but women on the frontlines did not happen say for like the very rare few and I ain’t talking like Viking women rare which is a lot rarer than shows like Viking try to depict but I mean even rarer it was only the New Zealand wars were you start to see women taking a bigger role in combat as they would be in the forts loading guns for the men to fire at the enemy and this was only due to the fact that a large portion of the male population was wiped out in the musket wars

Ka Mate is a real haka from the Ngati Toa tribe. ABs have adopted, shortened and commercialized it for their own use. Don't Down play it

You need to see the kappa o pango haka. That is intimidating

@@jrmop0965 I don't expect you to oblige me, but what is AB?

@@moobocksniffle from context AB = All Blacks. Kiwi mens team.

Haha, clowns

As a Scottish ancestry living in Canada try going to Highland games. They are amazing

@@Human4PeaceAs a Scot who has visited a Māori place of welcome. Picture the lone piper and make that a Māori warrior singing in the hills. Then know how they feel and the Scottish warrior would feel it’s the same. Stirs the heart and takes you to another place. Like the sound of the bagpipes coming over the hill.

love the HAKA

Then search for Bhoota Kala Celebration

I get afraid I don't know why

A real magic.❤

@Hamish Banish I like the equality ideals of a good contest too. I do think culture can make an event or occasion a little more memorable - especially if it is authentic and honours the contest- think big marching bands that play before grid iron games in the US or the elaborate ceremony before Thai kickboxing contests. Most visiting teams / athletes/ fans savour the experience. Try talking to the Irish team / fans that defeated the All blacks in 2022 - they rate the series win as the single most significant moment in their 120 years of playing test rugby.

@@dallashibbs6540 That's because ireland have mostly been s*** in their rugby history.

What is haka, I come accross this for the first time. Is it a local dance practice or something else. I read comment of some people saying it brought tears to their eyes, why?

@@rajveerkumar642 The haka was a war dance that Maori tribes would perform in front of the opposing army before the battle to intimidate their opponents & to act as a war cry for themselves.

Same here. Always almost moves me to tears

Yeh there’s a reason for that. Because girls arnt supposed to do it

Energy off the Hook

Legit thought it was the best haka I’d ever seen when watching it in the stadium! It was unreal

Les Elder came out right in front of us to join in. I was shaking nearly crying. The the Aussies scored twice 😮. Lol

That haka, was kaka 😭

It completely breaks Māori tradition but that's good. Tradition is for anuses

Clever man

😂bro

and those five to seven days out of every month make the haka that much more intense

😂😂😂😂😂

OMG..I choked when he said that..hilarious ! That is as it should be Bwahahahaha bwahahahaha

This was definitely Arihiana Marino-Tauhinu's best. I always enjoy when she's one of the leaders for the Chiefs.

Did you soil yourself? 🥺

@Hamish Banish I'll pass. Thanks anyways, though ☺

Hash tag me too! Thanks for the laugh!:) Who was the other team? Nice response with advancing on field.

u got a water gun for protection? 😂

@@peterpiper3790 lol that too... squirt someone in the eye and run away really fast

@@moobocksniffle ur emoji was a water gun sweetie

Yes and bulldozing homes and worshipping places of minorities.. that's also part of your "ancient" civilization.

दिल जीत लिया भाई।

Red Indian?

It's not folk music or dance .It's warrior cry

Like the way you think!!

Not just a Kiwi, but what it means to be Māori. Appreciate your appreciation for our culture.

Who keeps count of their goosebumps. Lol!

😂

You Should watch the kiwi league team best hakas, not for the feint hearted.

its so powerful and resonating to i think every human

chalk white😂 hey casper

​@@peterpiper3790 😂😂

I'll be that guy, literally not me

I remember some dipshits doing this here in a karaoke bar in lexington, KY. They got their asses beat. Lol

Bro same here...that was straight Mana

@@joshuaorika5751 yup i dont know why either

I couldn't see any of that through World Rugby's pandering bs cloud.

My pee came out !

Happens to me every time

She rips it up HARD. The power of her oratory at the start is breath-taking.

@@mikelnomikos That's what I'm talking about! 👍

The Kaka should be Banned, in Foreign-countries....as it's an Affront to those-Hosts(1stly), & Obviously, Gives the AB an Unfair-advantage(as the other nations, only Have their Anthems, for Inspiration....although I'm Sure, many also have their Own(Pictish, Zulu, etc)-war-Cries....which would just Add-time, to matches(but I wouldn't see a problem, if the Home-team were Allowed to perform, their countries(Defensive)-battle-Cry)) . 💪

This was definitely Arihiana Marino-Tauhinu's best. I always enjoy when she's one of the leaders for the Chiefs.

It inspire From katha kali parampara And Prayed of the Nature Shree Shiva

​@@shubhadipnath2487😅😂it's their native war cry n you are talking about invader aariyas made castes based slavery system Hinduism sanadana n made up deities stories by.... You people of India who were far more ferocious Indeginous people now turned into cattle back water drinkers n slaves of Brahmins by forgotten all native culture.....

We have a lot of folk dance like this.

Silver ferns is netball🤦‍♂️ this is the black ferns lol

@@bladeakl196 akin to womens rugby post showing the men😂

Did they win this match? And who were they versing

@@kurdtttCobainnn they beat Australia

Me too even if i am german

Oh gee thanks for letting us know ya half wit

But in india we don't care about tribal people people fight over their reservation even though they are not able to use it. How sad this is😢.

Pagal lag rahe 😂😂

Muze bhi😂​@@abhishek6575

But when Arjan Vaili is sung in movie, Feminist and weak double standards lobbies loses their mind 😅😅

​@@tusharkhanger8558 for European all Indian culture are tribal

This inspired strength for you? 😂😂 all it inspired for me was a huge cringe and a laugh

It's obvious that you don't understand the cultural significance of the haka along with a lack of respect

@@BenDover-oc7vl I know you get inspired by that bloke behind you aye, when you BEND OVER n he pokes your little brown eye !

@@BenDover-oc7vl 😋🤣🤣

I wish other cultures still had their traditions because then they could reply and then bam fair

​@@emptysoul5057 I don't know if the English rugby team following it up with a Morris dance would have quite the same effect.

@@mirandahotspring4019 I wish they would this whole give up tradition for homogeneous modernity is sad in a way culture don't revive once they die usually

@@emptysoul5057 I'm not sure what you meant by that, but the Maori culture is alive and very strong in New Zealand. Practically every high school has a Kapa Haka team and many have their own school marae.

@@mirandahotspring4019 they're doing great I mean European culture and in America it seems people don't really have anything to do with their own cultures any more we just put it all under western white and call it all the same but idk the non Maori team probably had a traditional dance from their culture but it's gone out of style and been mostly forgottoten by now I guess
