Whoever dislikes got some serious issues. Jealousy or just lack love in your heart. Our people are talented have more potentials and gifted when they embrace it all . YAH bless

English translation:- Disclaimer: I have translated it as close as I can while taking into account what the song means to me. Samoan language is not and never will be an easy language to translate as some words have more than 3 or 4 meanings depending on the context it is used with. I've loved Puavasa's music for a while now especially this song and the song "Tina e pele lava oe" as I've lost both set of parents years ago. Faafetai lava mo fatuga ma pepesega malie, Lord's blessings. Verse 1: A'o tauasa le malaga ☆》While the journey progresses Fetaia'i mai o leaga ☆》Faced with challenges Saili o se filemu ☆》Looking for peace/tranquility Le aiga ia mautu ☆》Our family to be stable/without struggles Ua ou iloa nei ua na'o oe Tama ☆》Now I know, only you dad/father Galue ile ao ma le po ☆》Who worked day & night Mo se manuia ☆》For stability /wealth Bridge: Tele aso, o taimi ☆》Many days and times E lagona ai ole vaivai ☆》The feelings of tiredness/weakness Ma le tigā ☆》And pain/down (literal meaning for "tigā" is pain) Te le'i faavaivai ile alofa ☆》You were never discouraged with love Lau fanau ia manuia ☆》For your children to be blessed/successful/well/looked after (literal meaning of "manuia" is "blessed") Ch: Faafetai ile Atua ☆》Thank you to God I se tama ua sili ☆》For a great dad/father (literal meaning for "sili" is "to place first in a standing/competition") Sa e galue punoua'i ☆》You had worked hard Faainu ma fafaga ☆》To nurture us (water = faainu + and = ma + feed = fafaga) Matou te tausia oe ia maloloina ☆》We will care for you to be healthy/well/have no more worries Faafiafia oe ☆》To make you happy (literal meaning for "faafiafia" is "entertain") Verse 2: Mai lo'u lava ititi ☆》From when I was young Sa e faatonuina a'u ☆》You taught me I upu ole filemu ☆》With words of peace I afioga ole Atua ☆》With God's words A'oa'i ma ta'ita'i ile amio lelei ▪︎》Taught and guide to be virtuous Fa'amautinoaina o'u tofi ile Atua ☆》To affirm my place with God Bridge: Tele aso o taimi ☆》Many days and times E lagona ai ole vaivai ☆》The feelings of tiredness/weakness Ma le tigā ☆》And pain/down (literal meaning for "tigā" is pain) Te le'i faavaivai ile alofa ☆》You were never discouraged with love Lau fanau ia manuia ☆》For your children to be blessed/successful/well/looked after (literal meaning of "manuia" is "blessed") Ch: Faafetai ile Atua ☆》Thank you to God I se tama ua sili ☆》For a great dad/father (literal meaning for "sili" is "to place first in a standing/competition") Sa e galue punoua'i ☆》You had worked hard Faainu ma fafaga ☆》To nurture us (water = faainu + and = ma + feed = fafaga) Matou te tausia oe ia maloloina ☆》We will care for you to be healthy/well/have no more worries Faafiafia oe ☆》To make you happy (literal meaning for "faafiafia" is "entertain")

Love the song and u guys have a beautiful voice😍😘✌🏻️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

i was looking for a song for ' father and daughter dance ' for my wedding and God bought me to this song , it truly explains everything about my dad , my dad came to Malua theological college with the expectations of becoming a minister & serving God mind you he didn't speak Samoan at all , he only could speak English & Tokelauan , so being in Samoa wasn't easy for him , on his second year at Malua he met my mother ( a girl from Laulii ) & said he was going to marry her 😂 even though he just met her lol they got married within months of their relationship & my older sister was born while my parents were on their last year in Malua , just before dad graduated he then worked for the EFKS biblical translation office in Apia for a year & was blessed to serve God in his church in Samusu Fagaloa , where i born & was raised as a baby (well i was born in Motootua Hospital ) 😂 he's been a minister in Samoa for 13 years serving God in his EFKS congregational in Samusu Fagaloa & Fusi Saluafata , he then left to serve God in his church back home in Atafu , Tokelau for 3 years now we currently live in NZ and serving God in the EFKT (Tokelau) church , he's been here for 13 years just listening to this song just made me cry my eyes out 😂 God bless you , you're all very talented , continue to bless other people with your gifts God has given xox alofa atu mo koutou in Gods name xox

❤I love this song

tama UA sili ..👑👑👑

So Talented. Love the lyrics very meaningful.. Keep up the good work. God Bless
