Fiji - Chant Of The Islands Lyrics






E pāpā Wairangi
Taku nei mahi
Taku nei mahi
He tuku roimata

Ē aue, e aue, ka mate au
E hine hoki mai rā
E hine hoki mai rā

E pāpā Wairangi
Taku nei mahi
Taku nei mahi
He tuku roimata

Ē aue, e aue, ka mate au
E hine hoki mai rā

Māku e kaute
Ō hīkoitanga
Māku e kaute
Ō hīkoitanga

Ē aue, e aue, ka mate au
E hine hoki mai rā
E hine hoki mai rā
E hine hoki mai rā

Hear the chant of the islands
The chant of the islands
Now we're going to Africa

Ikulu lega
Ikulu lega
Uche ho huzo bugobelau (sabotekulu lega)

Ikulu lega
Ikulu lega
Uche ho huzo bugobelau (sabotekulu lega)

Ikulu lega
Ikulu lega
Uche ho huzo bugobelau

    The songs taking about tears falling on the ground , for a person who doesnt love the singer anymore, then the person starts getting a little suicidal 💜, then it goes into another language I don't know.

    This song Sounds African to me

    B.... T....

    The second portion of the song after he sings.."Now we're going to Africa" all the way till the end of the song is an African chant. But the majority of the song is Maori.

  74. A.... R....

    I'll be forever grateful for the lyrics. Thank you.

    A.... R....

    Well, if you look - we have several for you to choose from. All are similar. I'm glad to be back and hope I can continue visiting here. I'd love to start uploading again. It's been a rough few years. I saw where you found your own lyrics. Maybe these will supplement yours. Thanks for commenting. I know that you saw ... it's appreciated, Moppet

    A.... R....

    Where was this recorded, and in what studio? I'm glad the engineer mixed all the multi-tracks right. Sometimes they don't put all the harmonies at the correct volume. Great mix.

    A.... R....

    I lost my internet. Got it back after EIGHT DAYS on an emergency basis! I couldn't find out but it was on Ricochet label. Sorry to not be more help. (I've read he had his own studios and did most of his mixing. Don't know if that's true or just PR). My best, Moppet

  75. _.... R....

    YEYA! Who's listening to this is 2017?

    _.... R....

  81. P.... ....

    Could you please change your lyrics for this song? The person who told you they were what you've got in comments is completely incorrect and since it is a Maori song, from Aoteoroa, I thought you might like to have the right words in your description.

    e papa waiari
    taku nei mai
    taku nei mai e tu ko roimata
    I aue aue
    ka mate ao
    e Hine hoki mai ra

    maku e
    ko te o hokoitanga
    maku e
    ko te o hokoitanga

    I aue aue
    ka mate ao
    e Hine hoki mai ra .

    (and then add in the African part)

    Hear the chant of the islands (??? Naguivama)
    The chant of the islands
    Now we're going to Africa
    Ikulu lega
    Ikulu lega
    Uche ho huzo bugobelau (sabotekulu lega)

  82. A.... M....

  90. R.... ....

    i love this song sometime this song makes me cry

  91. J.... W....

    Im happy yaall are sining te reo maori songs, but a lil recognition to us maori of aotearoa wouldve been nice ... You menion african and fiji but not the true owners of this song. Nek minnet , doing a remake of hoki mai e tama ma, and saying its a samoan song😒😒😒😒😒

    J.... W....

    Jade Whara whara - No one said that it wasn't a Maori song, u came to that conclusion all by yourself Smh

    J.... W....

    Bruno Mars 8 Gianna beat Juju on that beat

    J.... W....

    This is called a Maori song all the way through the threads. You didn't read correctly. There is a bit of African towards the end. I think it's Zulu. His NAME is Fiji, so that may have caused you confusion. Please look and you will see that it's called a Maori song by most. We even have translations...maybe 3, maybe 4 up above in the drop down. You have to click to see it, Moppet

    J.... W....

    +Bruno Mars - Thank you. I've been gone and just saw this. I don't know where he came up with his ideas. He didn't read the threads for sure. Appreciate you input. My best to you, Moppet

  92. D.... N....
