Manuhiri Karanga
Out of the two sides in a powhiri, the karanga for the Manuhiri is usually the harder as you need to know the Marae Protocl for the marae that you are visiting, where to walk, where and when to pause and where to go to sit.

The most basic karanga for the Manuhiri is
Karanga Mai Karanga Mai Karanga Mai
and is delivered in one breath.
