The 7 Sisters of Matariki

In a far away place that nobody dear goes,

There are 7 sisters that you might already know.

And those 7 sisters made a kite one day,

They went up a hill and the kites flew away.

Do you all want to know why they made a kite?

Well that will be easy to tell at night.

They wanted to make a kite for the new year.

Beautiful kites flying up in the air.

But wait what’s this? Look at the sky!  

Shining so bright like God’s big eye.

They look just like the sisters’ kites.

Dancing on that lovely night.

The sisters were very pleased.

And that’s the story about Matariki.
