- Long ago, Kalā (the sun) raced across the sky as he pleased, leaving the land and its people with short days and long, dark nights. Among those suffering from the lack of daylight was the goddess Hina, mother of the demigod Māui. In order to make things pono (right), Māui summons all his courage and travels to the highest summit of Haleakalā, where he confronts the mighty Kalā.

Awesome 💖
I have to watch this every night without fail my daughter loves it
So wished there were more of these. Very well done!
I love learning about my history with these stories
You're Hawaiian?
Well this Hawaiian version is much more little kid friendly than our New Zealand version where Maui and his brothers beat up the sun so badly in a group attack, the sun is forced to hobble crippled for eternity across the sky. It is so nice however I wonder if this Hawaiian version of the Maui and the sun is the original Hawaiian version.
Rachael Bean Maui is the most cultural exchanges story in Polynesian culture so, who really knows who made it first 🤷🏼♀️ (but ps we Hawaiians made em first XD nah nah jk 😉)
I can't say that i know if this is the original version but i'm confident in saying many versions are incorrect and the reason why i say that is because whenever you pass down knowledge and stories orally from generation to generation the stories will naturally become a variant of the original version... with that being said its safe to say that most of our stories will definitely not be 100% accurate from its original stories and/or past events.
The story of Maui goes back further than Polynesia. He's technically an Oceanic hero, seeing that both Polynesia and Micronesia each have many different versions of the same stories. I noticed the three most prevalent recurring themes are Maui's adversity at birth, Maui's stealing/acquisition of the secret of fire, and Maui's pulling up the islands.
And Maui is pretty much alive in Aotearoa & the rest of the Pacific Islands aswel 😊
Kala is me in the mornings
I’m so glad
Very nice
Okey guys this video is for KIDS. It's paraphrased and cartoony on purpose. So pipe down with all the criticisms. Nothing is incorrect; there are many different traditions and variations of this story.
takethatthomas thank you 🤙🏽
you can say that again, lol theyre called legends, our ancestors always changing them lol
So Maui is the reason the sun is in the sky, pretty dope that he just threw him up and made him unable to sleep or rest, just work 24/7
He said "booooyyyy let me go !" XD
beautiful. thank you for producing such a wonderful film. i'm sharing it with everyone!
All ethnic Iwi have their own version. Nothing wrong with that.
Rock on💖💖

Tic Tac Yo what is a gacha kid doing in Hawai’i 😂
@@zknation6803 :P
oh and i lassoed the sun
noice
Maui and Jesus are good friends aswel.
I seen this at school Māui is very brave
I heard that in some versions Māui has to see his grandmother to get what he needs to snare the sun. Māui needed to make sixteen snares, one for each of the flaming tendrils of Kalā. The snares needed to be made out of the hair of his sister, which kept it from burning.
Does anyone know where I can find the entire story (mele) of Māui and Haleakalā?
takethatthomas that’s the same story I heard
That's buzzy our story is like that to he went to his sister who was a weaver her name was Hina and she wove strands of her hair in with the flax to make it strong and those where what he used to catch the sun
Kala in Hawaiian La'a in Tongan 😊
We are the rightful people of Maui he's ours
What????, he's mother gave him a fishing hook made of he's grandmothers jaw bone.. but stone???...
N
Nic'da Stream snooper this is the Hawaiian version son
Zane Devoux There are multiple versions within Hawai’i too. Some versions say that it was his grandmother’s bone.
There are different stories of same myths
I like it.
Rooster. Serious.
who's here only cause of school
Woooooòoooooow
So Maui transformed into a rooster in the tale instead of an eagle? In "The Legends of Maui" the story is different.
Lol no CHICKen haha
Plus Roosters cannot fly. Even back then they were still too heavy to fly further than 200 feet.
Sorry, no eagles in Hawaii. We have a small native Hawk but that's as close to an eagle as you'll get out here.
@@kapononaeole7872 Well, I was referring to the Disney version ;)
No kidding
Out of all the other animals he could have turned into.
A rooster 🐓?
Why couldn't they have him turn into the eagle first for transportation; that way he could've flew faster and effortlessly, then still at least have some energy left
Then the rooster call to wake up Kala; that would've been smart
Hard work is still ok
But work smarter not harder
Didn't Maui go with his brothers? Didn't his mother send him to his uncle, Wasn't there more then 4 sons? Was it just Maui's mum who needed more sun, or was it everybody else?
Official Mafi there’s different versions of this myth

Hell the sun is a bully

Show this to your kids and say it's moana
*Kia ora
Only Maori's will know
And a haast eagle
Hold on.......I thought da sun was in space??? O-o
Because it's not...the sun is in the sky above us that's why we see it...these stories is more proof..same as the Greek story about icarus who flew to close to the sun and It melted the wax that kept the feather in place...he would have to fly 93 million miles away to get so close to the sun.
But ofcourse anyone with eyes to see knows that the sun is above us...we would never see the sun at 93 million miles away no matter how big...but the masses have been tricked and dumb down by science Nasa textbooks school and the media.
dancing dancing is wut i think of u
say im maoi and your moana
the accents are fucking with my tiny kiwi brain
Not even Hawaiians talk like this

What version is this its so wrong
What part of it is "wrong", exactly? There isn't anything that is incorrect. Just a lot of stuff left out.
Why are they wearing modern clothes?in begining
Because it's about an elder telling a story to children in a modern context.
What? You gonna steal our other gods as well lol
Maui tiki tiki ataranga is and always will be the jewl of new Zealand maori people these guys read our stories and duplicated it
Chickens can’t fly
Wild chickens can but most chickens are tame and fat.
Mom😬
What is this america we call it mum
Michaelah Thomas Hawaii is apart of America, so yes it is
Chickens don't even fly man this is all shit Maui turned into a karearea Maori falcon
Maui you suck and shut your mouth you kandy ass. Goddess of bullshit
I'm kinda sick of Hawaiians stealing our stories Haleakala what the hell is that the sun is ra
You know Maui is a legend throughout Polynesia, Not just maori. Don’t forget you’s are descendents from Havai’i (Hawaiki)!!
