Malo e hiva. Nice to hear the old skoo harmony singing of Tonga. Rarely hear it any more. Thanks to the Siasi Tongaz (Tauataina/houeiki) and of course Uesliliana.
Its good that Siasi Tonga Tau'ataina know thishimi pelu back then, even around 1885 that's when the lovely Siasi Tonga Tau'ataina put up, fokotu'u, but that's good when STT and STH doing the himi because its suitable for our church ,keep up with that. 'Ofa atu to where I tupui S.T.T ,Love you all

Just to add on to huikavapalangi's comments. In British/European culture, wearing a hat was a formality/symbol of respect. So Queen Salote wanted to replace this European practice with our own native sign/symbol of respect which is donning on the ta'ovala. FAKATONGA! This is why most of the South Pacific Churches still wear hats. Apparently in Tonga, only the Siasi Tonga Churches still keep to this tradition. Siasi Tonga Tau'ataina, the first Christian Church in TONGA...
Which part of Auckland is that? I love your strong testimony about you as who you really are! Pls make sure you document your visit back to your family back in Tonga by video! It will be heart warming to see you tracing your identity back to where you generation came from!
lol i didnt know any other church sang this because this is our himi 219... every Siasi Tonga Hou'eiki knows this himi probably by heart, but there are many many different Fasi or tunes.... good to know though
hi, yes it does depend on what church you go to, I believe that only the 3 Siasi Tonga Churches still wear hats, the SUTT church used to, but when the late Queen Salote unified some STT and Wesleyan to form the SUTT, she brought back the ta'ovala and is a reason why Tongans in other churches still wear ta'ovala. In the Siasi Tonga, when a women chooses to carry the cross, or become a leading memeber of the church she wears a hat, similar to the red scraff of the SUTT. hope that helped. Ofaz.
Love this song!but I'm siasi tonga tau"ataina and my other half is siasi tonga Houeiki but im both.I go to siasi tonga tauataina Riverside but reping were I'm from
When the missionaries arrived and instructed women to wear hats, or cover their heads. It was not a European practice but based on Paul's exhortation to the Corinthians Any man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head it is the same as if her head were shaven. ... For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God but woman is the glory of man 1 Cor. 11:4-5, 7
