Beautiful, classic song about a guy asking a girl to elope with him
Faauli mai o mauga pei a faapua o ni timuga
O loto le tutusa ua alai ona le maua se iuga
O ai e le boy ua na opo ese ina Dear oe
Mana’o i ai le loto a e vaivai lona tino e
Sau, sau ia ta o, ta evaeva ane i o
pe ta te nonofo i le malie o si ou loto
Aua ne’i e toe masalosalo fuga
e te talitonu pe a ta sosola i mauga
Faapei ona naunau le mutia i le sau
e faapena ona ou naunau ia oe lou au
Si au amio o le agamalu ma le tauagafau
Ua tuia lo’u fatu ma lo’u mama talu le tuinanau
Sau sau ia ta o, ta evaeva ane i o
pe ta te nonofo i le malie o si ou loto
Aua ne’i e toe masalosalo, fuga
e te talitonu pe a ta sosola i mauga
english translation??
Mountains overcast with clouds of rain
Conflicting hearts the reason for indecision
So who was the boy who turned you about
The spirit’s willing but her flesh was weak.
Come and let us go, to stroll over yonder
Whether we’d be marry when given your consent
Don’t you dear be so suspicious
You’ll believe it once we flee to the mountains
As the grass thirst for the morning due
So my heart longeth after you my love
Your gentleness and gracefullness
Pierced my heart and my lung because of want
Thanks for sharing
