I hope this translation proves useful to those unfamiliar with the Tongan language. Uisa he me'a mamahi Ko ha 'ofa 'oku tangi muimui Si'ene langa 'aho ka e tangi he po'uli Ka koloto koā ta'ahine ha'o faka'atu'i Uisa tā ko e mala si'eku mo'ui Oh, what a pain! A love that weeps in silent sorrow. It aches by day, yet tears by night. Oh girl, how will you ever comfort me? Perhaps, alas, this is the misfortune of my life. Si'i 'ofa ni ne fakaloloma mai mei 'api mahu Si'ete nofo mo e fu'u kato faka'amu Pehe ange mai 'e au keu tō 'i ha tau Ho'o faka'aluma holo 'aki au This tender love, exiled from abundant embrace, Lingers with a deep and aching longing. I wish I could fall with honor in battle, Rather than endure the mockery you bestow upon me. Ta'ahine pe'i lea mai ā kau fanongo 'lo he kuo mahino 'eni si'eku nofo Ka e 'amusia pe mu'a 'a e fu'u loto na ia 'Oku 'eva ma'olunga mo fa'iteliha Girl, please speak, let your voice be near, It’s clear now-this is my situation here. Your soul is so fortunate, unbound by strife, Soaring high and free, untouched by life.
For those who dont know, this is a love song about a boy who can't be with the girl he loves. He just wants to tell her his feelings but he is forbidden to do so because of hierarchical restrictions in the culture. Its a song of time telling her his steongest desires in his heart but it's all an imagination.
Still hits close to home when i hear or watch this video man im full Samoan but love my toko brothers and the music the put out in the world for us to hear n fall in love with I remember i first laid ehes on this vids in 2017 and man still love it to this day ofa lahi atu tokos ❤❤ malo le faafiafia
As always the vibes and the melodies are 🔥 🔥 🔥 . Samoan fan that has no idea what I'm listening to but I do know it's some of my favorite stuff to always play when smashing some brewskis to unwind from the work weekwith my wifey.
Uisa he me'a mamahi.. Koha 'ofa 'oku tangi muimui.. Si'ene langa 'aho kae tangi he po'uli.. Ka koloto koaa ta'ahine ha'o faka'atu'i.. Uisa ta koe mala si'eku mo'ui.... Si'i 'ofani ne fakaloloma mai mei 'api mahu.. Si'ete nofo moe fu'u kato faka'amu.. Pehe ange mai 'e au keu to 'iha tau.. Ho'o faka'aluma holo 'aki au... Ta'ahine pe'i lea mai a kau fanongo.. 'Io he kuo mahino 'eni si'eku nofo.. Kae 'amusia pe mu'a 'ae fu'u loto na ia.. 'Oku 'eva ma'olunga mo fa'itelina...
Lyrics: Uisa he mea mamahi koe palaku si oku mata ne’kuu maa’i aho o’ fei ia mai. Hange ko ha me’a ne ke loto aki he ikai I feu o no feinga ho fuu lotona si ene fe vani aki. Chorus: kau foki kau ki’utu malavā faka lotoloto ho ma’tua i’sa ta’ahine koho o’ samine kia hai koa Verse 2: Uisa he mea mamahi koe palaku si oku mata ne’kuu maa’i aho o’ fei ia mai. Hange ko ha me’a ne ke loto aki he ikai I feu o no feinga ho fuu lotona si ene fe vani aki. Chorus: kau foki kau ki’utu malavā faka lotoloto ho ma’tua i’sa ta’ahine koho o’ samine kia hai koa x2
Hands down my favorite guys to listen to <3 To those who don't understand the song/language, it's basically a sad love song of a man to a lady whom he's deeply in love with but he knows he doesn't stand a chance with her and she might not even know he exists or that he has feelings for her. The intro he shares the deep ache he feels "uisa he me'a mamahi ka ko ha 'ofa oku tangi muimui, si'i ete langa 'aho ka e tangi he po'uli" which I can roughly translate as "Oh how painful to have a love that follows you constantly, it aches during the day and cries at night".... "Ta'ahine pei lea mai a kau fanongo, 'io he kuo mahino 'eni si eku nofo, kae 'amusia pe 'ae fu'u lotona ia oku eva ma'olunga mo fai teliha" which goes something like "Please speak to me girl and I will listen, yes I understand my current path (situation) is already set, but how lucky your heart is to come and go as it pleases (maybe he meant she's free to love who she pleases but maybe never him)" This is one of my favorite Tongan sad love songs or "hiva kakala". I fell in love with this genre music at a young age thanks to my dad who used to jam and sing the solo parts with his siblings and at the kalapus "kava clubs" he would play at. Anyways hope my 2 cents helped lol 'Ofa atu everyone & God bless. -A Tongan American girl in love with her country: Kingdom of Tonga
What is the genre of music called?? I want to completely lose myself in every artists discography. This is such beautiful music and would love to learn more about where it comes from and the culture behind it :)
