  1. Vote for Austin s. Best answer by far.


  2. NO

  3. well, you are right that the All Blacks use that Haka, in fact the first time was 1906, but in 2005 they performed their new Haka, Kapa o Pango for the first time against South Africa.  This new version will compliment Ka Mate and be used for special occasions.

    The words are:

    Kapa o pango kia whakawhenua au i ahau!

    Hi aue, hi!

    Ko Aotearoa e ngunguru nei!

    Au, au, aue ha!

    Ko Kapa o Pango e ngunguru nei!

    Au, au, aue ha!

    I ahaha!

    Ka tu te ihiihi

    Ka tu te wanawana

    Ki runga ki te rangi e tu iho nei, tu iho nei, hi!

    Ponga ra!

    Kapa o Pango, aue hi!

    Ponga ra!

    Kapa o Pango, aue hi, ha!

    English Translation

    Let me become one with the land

    This is our land that rumbles

    And it's my time! It's my moment!

    This defines us as the All Blacks

    It's my time! It's my moment!

    Our dominance

    Our supremacy will triumph

    And will be placed on high

    Silver fern!

    All Blacks!

    Silver fern!

    All Blacks!

  4. There are many hakas (haka is a Maori dance), but I'm sure you're talking about the All-Black's haka:

    Ringa pakia

    Uma tiraha

    Turi whatia

    Hope whai ake

    Waewae takahia kia kino

    English Translation:

    Slap the hands against the thighs

    Puff out the chest

    Bend the knees

    Let the hip follow

    Stamp the feet as hard as you can.

    Ka Mate! Ka Mate!

    Ka Ora! Ka Ora!

    Tenei te ta ngata puhuru huru

    Nana nei i tiki mai

    Whakawhiti te ra

    A upane ka upane!

    A upane kaupane whiti te ra!

    Hi!!

    English Translation:

    It is death! It is death!

    It is life! It is life!

    This is the hairy person

    Who caused the sun to shine

    Keep abreast! Keep abreast

    The rank! Hold fast!

    Into the sun that shines!

    That's taken from the official site (see link below), but for all your haka needs visit the NZ Folk Song site: http://folksong.org.nz/ka_mate/
