My group for inquiry is doing the Fijian cibi.
The meaning of the cibi haka.
The fijian haka chant started in 1939 but they think that the origins date back to the country's warring times with their Pacific neighbours. The cibi was meant for open battle to inspire the troops, but it was sung with more vigour when the victorious army returned home to celebrate.
In 1939 They went on there first tour through new zealand and the captain of fiji ratu sir george cakobau, had an idea to make their own war cry which was cibi sothe all blacks war cry is the normal haka
The meaning of the cibi haka is, Celebration of victory by warriors. So If they won a game they might perform the haka after for their victorious . but before the game they will perform the haka to inspire them so they are ready to play.
