To commence your ceremony, have everyone gathered together and you open with the first verse of the karakia provided. Arise the eyes of the god, arise the signs of the year, arise Matariki who gathers the masses. Kewa hi hake te houtapu, befakahui hui tei hui, a katakinai honga karakia ki te nei fiti, mai aia ngamata o teariki, mai aia ngatohua o te tau, mai aia matariki huanui. The next verse of the karakia acknowledges Pohutukawa, and those of your whanau who have passed since the previous matariki. Behold Pohutukawa, who carries the dead of the year, onward that departed to the chest of the sky, and the body of the people who have been in the haka of the people. To become a star in the Milky Way. The next verse of the karakia is the name of Pohutukawa, and the name of the year, Matariki. The name of Pohutukawa, the name of the year, will be the name of the Lord, who is the King of the Kingdom. Thank you. Thank you, thank you. Thank you for your time. Thank you. Thank you. It's a great honour to be able to be a star in the haka of the people, and to be able to be a star in the haka of the people, se potege a te kuih. Hākua karehe fiore.
