Lupe I Le Vao Maoa
La'u lupe uai le vao maoa
Tagi o le loto ma le fa'anoanoa
Mafaufau ua le taulau
No'u ua musu le fuala'au
[Chorus]
Aue a e
O le alofa e
Fia va'ai ia te oe le amio mamoe
A o la'u fa'amaoni
Tumau ia te oe se'i o'o i le oti
La'u lupe
Sau ia se'i tautino
Sou alofa o e fa'alilo
Mafaufau ua le moe
Talu le fia va'ai ia oe
[Chorus]
Aue a e
O le alofa e
Fia va'ai ia te oe le amio mamoe
A o la'u nei fa'amaoni
Tumau ia te oe se'i o'o i le oti
My dove lost in the forest
My heart cries with sadness
Our hopes have left unfulfilled
Because of the fuala'au have refused
[Chorus]
Oh oh
The poor love
I want to see you and your gentle ways
But as for my commitments
Remains with you until death
My dove
Come I want to see
A love you held in secret
Thoughts have kept me from sleeping
Because of my desire to see you
[Chorus]
Oh oh
The poor love
I want to see you and your gentle ways
But as for my commitments
Remains with you until death
