karakia


Tuia i runga
Bind above
Tuia i raro
Bind below
Tuia i whao
Bind without
Tuia i roto
Bind within
Tuia te here tangata
Bind together the people
Ka rongo te ao
Plan for the day
Ka rongo te po
By looking to the past
Tihei mauri ora!
Behold the sneeze of life

modern and traditional music in New Zealand 
The modern music in new Zealand is really any type of music but the top 40 songs are mostly pop songs. Although in New Zealand they still do kapa haka which is an avenue for Maori people to express and showcase their heritage and cultural through song and dance.

traditional music in New Zealand usually concludes of voices and sounds of hands and feet being moved to make a sound. Traditional Maori music can also be used for prayers. Not only can it be used to connect with the Maori gods, but also for funerals and ceremonies.
