Stunning Roopu from the South island!!

[@glenneshachildress5954]

Hello from Philadelphia Pennsylvania, I've been and will continue to watch the "Stunning Roopu from the South island" video on KZbin. I fell in love with your music. Keep up the good work!

[@mysticmaori9146]

The fact that I learnt this from how many times I’ve heard it is soooo amazing it’s a shame nobody here knows it cause it’s so beautiful

[@levimartin3802]

Whats the chords do you know

[@Josii]

@Archibald Valentine do you have the lyrics written down? Can you post it here?

[@erinwilson9032]

I first saw this performance on Facebook about a month ago. I remember watching it and getting chills. I'm not even ashamed to say this made me tear up. I don't understand the language, but I felt this song and knew it carried some kind of sweet sentiment. They sound so beautiful!

[@uchihahikaku1630]

As guy from a hearty Ngapuhi whanau. I love your falla's gentle wairua from down South. Mauri Ora.

Beautiful! Is there a way to have lyrics to this?

[@okbutjikook]

Usually for Maori songs and performances you either know the language or not, there’s hardly ever any translations. 😅😅

[@eaqua56]

@@okbutjikook Not necessarily looking for translation. Just the lyrics.

[@okbutjikook]

eno c aquaowo yeah I’d say it’s the same thing with lyrics too. I’m not sure with this song but a lot of Maori songs that are performed are made by the people themselves rather than popular singers.

[@SpicyT257]

@@okbutjikook Can confirm that; this one was written by the guitarist and some of his friends and family
