Isa Roots. I used to live in Nabua and attended primary sch in Raiwaqa and this band was our national anthem. My school mates from Raiwaqa & Raiwai were always by my side. I later went to live in Raiwaqa once started work and Roots was still a hit and this song became more meaningful.
Isa this song...bak in the dayzz growing up in the West.Now decades later,things has changed alot.Our Fijian music has evolved so much..but this 1 still is one of our best Fijian songs of all time!
Isa Fiji - I really miss the island (its been 27 years now) - but lots of memories when listening to this song - start from Namadi ht - down to Nabua place drinking grog - thanks for loading the song.... Ioe, vinaka na sere Rootstrata
isa.... i still remember wen my uncle Iowane Burese was the lead guitarist in this band... this song brings me closer to home..:):) #Rootsalltheway!!!...
This is the only secpnd song that will b next to my bracas' 'noqu koronivuli uasivi' word by word on his school days. Everything was' Roosteata.' And i felt in love too. Twups to Roots.✌️✌️✌️❤
Listening today Friday 10th March 10:45AM in VOTUALEVU NADI, Thinking back when l was just a Form 3 in 1995,we used to sing this song in the classroom,,,,isaa memories
Yea.. She left the guy.. Wanda McKenzie lopez!!! The boy has done many great things to her, and he didn't know that the was cheating him.. So the girl run away nd he was like ,umm wondering,he did give his 100% to the girl nd the girl still find another one. He told the girl on the day they got marride,The boy told the girl 'I will take your hand has my wife,in good times nd bad times,rich or poor,i will be there for u as ur wife!!in everyday of our life..I will still be there for you..''
.. The girl left him.. I n the last verse the boy told the girl '' I Beg you please don't come back,if u know that u can't cope up with him, I remember what you tell during our marriage day, that u will be my Husband forever, nd now that you break that promise,, Don't you ever come back to me???
This is a love song , a man mezmarising the old times with his partner eventhough they were separated... remembering their promises to each other and will always be in his heart and soul forever...

Full lyrics and translation:
Noqu dodomo sa mai kani veiwali
Nodaru lasa sa mai tini tu oqo
Noqu bula ni dodomo sa mai tini koso
Ena rawarawa ni ko sa mai biuti au
E veibogi niu moce taudua
Wai ni mataqu e tuturu malua
Keu rogoca lesu tale na vosa ni yala
Isa buna ko sa guilecava
Au taura na ligamu mo mai watiqu
Bula vinaka se ko tauvimate tu
Vakailavo se ko dravudravua o na watiqu tikoga
E veisiga kece me kua sara ni mudu
Au na sega ni kerea mo lesu mai
Ke se tu vei iko na veilomani
Mo nanuma lesu tale na vosa ni yalayala
Isa buna ko sa guilecava
Au taura na ligamumo mai waitqu
Bula vinaka se ko tauvimate tu
Vakai lavo se ko dravudravua
O na watiqu tikoga
E veisiga kece me kua sara ni mudu (3x)
(1)
My love has been ruined, our fun has ended
My love life has ended abruptly in sadness when you left me
(2)
Every night when I sleep alone, my tears fall down slowly
If I heard the vow back then, oh darling you've forgotten
Chorus
I take your hand to be my wife in sickness and in health
Rich or poor you'll always be my wife everyday until forever
(3)
I won't ask you to come back if you have a heart
You should remember the vow back then, oh darling you've forgotten
@@Samizouza Thank you
Tombstone gang
