O Le Taualuga

Share these lyrics:

A song about the last dance of a celebratory Samoan gathering – le taualuga – performed by a taupou. 
O le taualuga o le a fa’ai’u mea uma
Olioli malie se’ese’e mai, ua matagofie
Fa’avai lou tino, tasi ou taga fo’i e manino
Ia faatamaalii, ua na’o oe lava e sili
Polenesia uma, ou te tautino atu, e sili o le siva Samoa
Afai la e te fia talitonu, sau ia se’i e maimoa
O si ona faiga e fesuisuia’i e le tumau i se mea e tasi
e le gata ile se’e, tino ao faamane’ene’e
O le sole na a tagata lautele
So’o se tasi e siva e tutusa uma tama ma teine
Siva ma le ataata ata, ole aso ua maualuga
Faaali lou fia fia i si ou siva Samoa
Polenesia uma, ou te tautino atu, e sili o le siva Samoa
Afai la e te fia talitonu, sau ia se’i e maimoa
O si ona faiga e fesuisuia’i e le tumau i se mea e tasi
e le gata ile se’e, tino ao faamane’ene’e
(Ou te le tala ole, Punialava’a)
Ou te le tala ole
e silisili tama o le lole
E alaala po fai sau sofesofe
ma tunu fa’avave sau kofe
Aua lou moa ne’i molemole
tamo’e faavave ma le ofe
E seu mai sega tala ma se safole
e tali ai o lo’u popole
Tago maia fusi atu a’u
ma fa’amafanafana lo’u fatu
Na ou tago atu lea opo mai oe
ma popo faamoemoe
Tago maia fusi atu a’u
ma fa’amafanafana lo’u fatu
Na ou tago atu lea opo mai oe
ma popo faamoemoe
E seu mai sega tala ma se safole
e tali ai o lo’u popole
Tago maia fusi atu a’u
ma fa’amafanafana lo’u fatu
Na ou tago atu lea opo mai oe
ma popo faamoemoe
