Matariki ... Matariki ... Matariki
It's a time to celebrate
and share some kai
A hangi with the Whanau
or a hearty mince pie.
Matariki ... Matariki
Have you ever looked up at
the dark night sky
And seen the seven stars
shining way up high.
Matariki ... Matariki
The stars are in the shape
of a fish
It's a time of year to
plan and wish
Matariki ... Matariki
Have lots of fun with
your family and friends
Learn new things,
share and make amends
Fly a kite
way up high
Learn about the land
and learn about the sky
Matariki ... Matariki ... Matariki
YEH
