We are singing a beautiful song about rainbows.

Last week we learnt the lyrics and this week we learnt the actions. Here is our song...

Titiro atu ki te rangi Look to the sky
Whiti te marama I te po Moon shinning at night
Heke iho ana te ua Rain falls
Te tini me te mano o nga whetu Thousands of stars

Te raukura hirahira The great/important feather
E kanapu ana I te rangi shinning brightly in the sky
Na nga tupuna tis our ancestors
Nga kaumatua tis our elders
E rere ana I te po Flying around at night

E rere Fly
Rere atu Fly on
E rere Fly

Hoki atu ra Return
Ki te po uriuri To the gloomy night
Ki te po tangotango To the very dark night
Ki te po te kitea e To the night that is seen/recognized
Titiro atu ki te rangi Look to the sky
Uenuku tu mai ra Rainbow stand tall
Na te huia a nga turehu Tis a Huia of our decedents
E rere ana i te po Flying around at night

Te raukura hirahira The great/important feather
E kanapu ana I te rangi shinning brightly in the sky
Na nga tupuna tis our ancestors
Nga kaumatua tis our elders
E rere ana I te po Flying around at night


E rere Fly
Rere atu Fly on
E rere Fly
