Fijian Haka cib

First of all we are doing a dance that is cultural to Fiji and used before rugby games and after rugby games. We have our certain parts and actions that we have to do. We have been practicing it and then we will perform it in front of the class. Another dance that is in our group will be performed by 2 people . The meaning of the Haka was to inspire themselves before a rugby game or celebrate their victory. It is also a rememberence of when they were in war with their pacific neighbors. It was made when they were vs New Zealand and the captain thought of a Haka to compete with the All blacks.
The Haka goes like this.

Ai tei cibi.                                                                                          
Ai tei vovo, tei vovo          
E ya, e ya, e ya, e ya
Tei vovo, tei vovo
E ya, e ya, e ya, e ya
Rai tu mai, rai tu mai
Oi au a virviri kemu bai
Rai tu mai, rai ti mai
Oi au a virviri kemu bai
Toa yalewa, toa yalewa
Veico, veico, veico
Au tabu moce koi au
Au moce ga ki domo ni biau
E luvu koto ki ra nomu waqa
O kaya beka au sa luvu sara
Nomu bai e wawa mere
Au tokia ga ka taserev
