Paroles et traduction Te Vaka - Te Namo

Te Namo

Fakateletele i te namo ki iuta
Fakatu pehe taumuliava
Te Lahu, Te Tufa, Te Loto, Te Alohi
Kikila i tamaliki ma tupu laga

He ma pehe
He ma pehe Tokelau

Fesili ake pe fano ki fea
Saloa na fetu kua motoki

Te gali ote aso tenei
Te matagi kua agiagi mai
Manulele kua eva ki luga
I te gali ote aso tenei
Fano atu ki luga o te tai
Fakateletele ai toku vaka
Te gali ote aso tenei
Te matagi kua agiagi mai

Ooh te namo
Te matagi
Ooh te namo

Ma tamaliki
Ooh te namo
Manulele

Te Namo

My love has gone off to sea
To row her boat beyond the reef
Te Lahu, Te Tufa, Te Loto, Te Alohi
Watch over our children as they grow

She is like a Tokelauan love song
She is like a Tokelauan love song

I wonder where she may be
Saloa and the stars have guided her

The wind of the day
The wind is blowing strong
The birds have flown into the sky
In the wind of the day
I sail my canoe into the ocean
My canoe is swaying
In the wind of the day
The wind is blowing strong

Ooh my love
The wind
Ooh my love

And our children
Ooh my love
The birds
