@xamehc You're right. I'm wrong. Same title but quite different waiata.

@davidtsmall - Actually Dave, you've mistaken this 'Nga iwi e, e karanga e te iwi e' with the revamped Kanak 'Nga iwi e, kia kotahi ra te moana nui a Kiwa' version. Factual satement, just the wrong waiata.

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!! !
Yes, it is also known as E Te Iwi E. We did a lot of research on the titles and translations which come in the CD booklet. A lot of the titles depend on which part of New Zealand you come from. This tune in particular has many titles, because the first line is often substituted with the Marae, Iwi, place name, or school of the people that are singing it.
