Uncle Tucksy, was there the day he translated from the english version to the vula'a language at Lapwing Drive Gordons. The english version of the song was sung by Johnny Cash I believe "There's a light in the window"
The uniqueness of our culture whether it’s Polynesia, Micronesia or Melanesia we always find a way to blend them together through our songs and dances. Beautiful!
Here is the lyrics for those of you who have been asking... 1. Lamepa e 'alana Iesu na e kea rana Ia genai e wai neina Aukavaku maparami Lani namana era Maguli lamepa e 'alana Chorus: Io gia e vewana Ralema ralemana Pane pue kapu vagi Aikina kina vagi 'Ala mo pene vaia Pene ao vanagi vanagi Kapuna wara Lamepa e 'alana 2. Mukuna aona na Io ve luga vagi Maguli io avu lelea... Irau e wai aomuna gena Gena waikule ai Maguli Lamepa e 'alana
For those of you after the lyrics, here it is. Verse 1: Iesu na ia e va'ilarana Vavine arawamu genai Pono veveni Walana oi arawamu oi repamu Keriso rupu repana veaina Chorus: Aurai ia pe veulamagi Oi au e Ia aunipara opunamo Oi au e Gera vearawa magulina Vanamana Pe opuna ia lualai Verse 2: Manuale arawamu pono ulamagia Walana ia oi auniparamu Pono ala naka naka venia Keriso rupu e ulamagi Ana veaina (incase you may be wondering what this song is about - this song basically depicts the scripture from the bible Ephesians 5:22-33)
@mariea6255 People only see the bad side of PNG, they need to show more of this. Tik tok is a good platform to show more videos like this. Png really is the centre of the Pacific where Polynesian, Micronesia and melanesian meet.❣️❣️
I lost my 3am on Sunday, Sept 2020...She speaks Motu and likes Papuan Gospels.... listening to this song , my heartfelt was overwhelmed, God is good and He works in different ways....Bless you all.
First heard the song after the composer of the song passed away. Surprisingly, he happens to be my biological dad. I grew up in Milne Bay Province and didn't get to learn Hula language.. RIEP Augi..
