Mata Pupula

Punialavaa, Tenari | 4 comments

Samoan version of Art Garfunkel’s Bright Eyes

Sa ou le moe lelei

Mata’utia le miti nei
Ua sua tutu’i tele mai le tai, ua lolovai
A ua fa’auli le tafalagi
Malama maoa’e i le lagi
Leai se na iloa le pogai ua mafua ai
E la’u miti ua fai

chorus: Mata pupula e mumu pei se afi
Aisea e mumu ai ma mou
Pe faapefea na e pupula malosi ae fa’afuase’i ona mou
Mata pupula
Sa ou va’aia se ata
Ua lafoia i le po
Punitia ai mauga ma le sami, ua pogisa
Le matagi ua agi malosi
Le la ua le vevela
Leai se tasi na iloaina ua mou atu ai
Lana i ona foliga

chorus x2

It’s a dream, dream exploring the world of death!
If listen to the lyrics it’s pretty scary visually the setting of the dream
