'Kia Ora' technically means 'for life', I think, but when they scream it in the All Black's haka I want to hide.

The expression on Piri's face when he lead them in their haka at the 2011 World Cup was the really terrifying part. You half expected his head to start spinning or a chest-popper to show up. It made it really hard to remember he's one of the shortest on the team.

Kia ora means "be well", but the words in the haka are "ka ora", which can be interpreted a number of ways, including "it is life" and "I live". You should be scared, though -- it's a war chant, and the immediately preceding line is "ka mate", which is "it is death" or "I die". It's not really fair to take a war chant and assume that therefore the whole language is violent-sounding, though. Check out "Pokarekare ana", for example (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITee3lUKYmc), which is a love song, or the news at Te Kaea (http://www.maoritelevision.com/tv/shows/te-kaea) for some alternatives.
