This American locker room is embracing our Maori culture by singing the waiata E Papa Waiari before they tale the playing field.
Although if they realized the lyrics that they were singing, perhaps they wouldn't be so cheery...
Lyrics below.
O Uncle Waiari,
All I've been doing
All I've been doing
Is shedding tears
Chorus:
Alas I will die;
Oh darling, return to me
Alas I will die;
Oh darling, return to me
2. I will count
Your footsteps
I will count
Your footsteps
