Kai Tangata Lyrics – Alien Weaponry

He taua, He taua!

Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
Ka hopungia e maha nga upoko
Ka hopungia e maha taurekareka
E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

Anei rā
Te uhi o Mataora
Pai tuarā
Te kokongapere
Nga rape
Te kitemaimairu
Tatua taua
Nga tā moko puhoro
Anei nga tohu a Tūmatauenga

He pakanga nunui mo te whakautu
Tae mai nga tūpuna mo te whakaāwhina
Kia mau nga Tohunga mo te whakakarakia
E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

Anei rā
Te uhi o Mataora
Pai tuarā
Te kokongapere
Nga rape
Te kitemaimairu
Tatua taua
Nga tā moko puhoro
Anei nga tohu a Tūmatauenga

A Tūmatauenga
Mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

Whakatangi o nga pū, whakapatu nga taiaha
Te kikokiko rekareka ō aku hoariri
Nga umu whakakīa tātau kōpū ki te utu
E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

Anei rā
Te uhi o Mataora
Pai tuarā
Te kokongapere
Nga rape
Te kitemaimairu
Tatua taua
Nga tā moko puhoro
Anei nga tohu a Tūmatauenga

Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua

Kai Tangata Lyrics English Translation Meaning

He taua, He taua!

A war party, a war party!

Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
Ka hopungia e maha nga upoko
Ka hopungia e maha taurekareka
E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

Footsteps pound the sacred warpath
Many heads are sought
Many slaves are sought
This is the work of Tūmatauenga.

Anei rā
Te uhi o Mataora
Pai tuarā
Te kokongapere
Nga rape
Te kitemaimairu
Tatua taua
Nga tā moko puhoro
Anei nga tohu a Tūmatauenga

Behold
The chisel of Mataora
The strong back
The base of the spine
The buttock spirals
The thigh
The war belt
The tattooed bodies of warriors
These are the omens of war.

He pakanga nunui mo te whakautu
Tae mai nga tūpuna mo te whakaāwhina
Kia mau nga Tohunga mo te whakakarakia
E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

A mighty battle to avenge us
Our ancestors gather to assist us
Our priests prepare the incantations
This is the work of Tūmatauenga.

Whakatangi o nga pū, whakapatu nga taiaha
Te kikokiko rekareka ō aku hoariri
Nga umu whakakīa tātau kōpū ki te utu

The cry of guns, the blows of the taiaha
The sweet flesh of our enemies
The ovens fill our bellies with revenge
This is the work of Tūmatauenga.
