Grassroots Comp looking fiiiyyyaaaaah🔥🔥

Kahura, kahura, kahura
Kahura tu manawa wiri
Kahura tu manawa pore
Kahura tu manawa uha
Tere ana te ika i te moana te pipiha
Whakaea, whakahotunuku, whakahoturangi
He poupou, he taketake
He huru manu, he roki hau
Ko to manawa, ko toku manawa
Ko te manawa nui no rangi
Ka whakaputa ki te whaiao, ki te ao marama!
He ora!
Whano! Whana! Haramai te toki!
Haumi e! Hui e!
Taiki e!

Kaore e roa e te whanau and the Grassroots will be here.
