    ‘ALO I OU FAIVA’ Lyrics
    Chorus
    Alo i ou faiva ia manuia
    Aua e te loto vaivai pe a o’o mai faigata
    Lua te fa’atasi ma le Atua
    I so’o se ala e te uia
    Verse 1
    Lo’u atali’i ia e fa’alogo mai i la’u nei upu o le a fai
    Ia e nofo sauni, aua e te solomuli i lau fa’ai’uga ua fai
    O le lalolagi nei e tumu i mea masei
    E tele fa’aosoosoga e vaivai ai ou lagona
    Ia e loto tele. Aua e te fefe
    Alu ma le fiafia lo’u atali’i ia e manuia
    Chorus
    Verse 2
    Lo’u afafine se’i e fa’alogo mai i le ma upu o le a fai
    Ne’i e manatu mama i loimata o lou Tinā
    A o e folau i le vasa loaloa (e faigata)
    O oe e malu ai le aiga nei, lo’u afafine se’i alofa fai lelei
    Ta’ai ese lou fala, tu’u ese le aluga
    Fa’amalosi mai se’ia o’o i le taunu’uga
    Chorus
    Rap/Bridge
    O ou māmā na, lo’u uso, Alo ia i ou faiva
    Ia uluulumatāfolau lou faamoemoe auā le taua
    Ia toa lou loto ia manatua oloo tu’i le mulipapaga
    A nai matua ma nai aiga aemaise alalafaga
    Nofo tatalo, tapua’I, ia faaloaloa le ala
    Auā lau savaliga nei tuia lou vae i se maa
    Lou uso faalogo lelei
    I le aunagi a Ma ma Papa
    O fautuaga e fai mo oe
    Tua ai i manū lau faigamalaga
    Fa'alogo lelei ma e manatua
    Alu ma amo nai ta mātua
    'Aua te fefe, lototele
    O oe le lupe o le a fa'alele
    Tete'e le fili, tete'e le pia
    Tago e sapo le manuia
    To’aga i le lotu, to'aga tatalo
    'Aua ne'i galo lau Tusi Pa'ia
    Oi se sole se 'aua e te tagi

    Ia ua tele na fautuaga
    Teu I lou loto ma lou agaga
    Ae sau loa ta fa'atōfā
    Ia tu Ieova i lo ta va

    ***OFFICIAL TRANSLATION***
    Talofa lava everyone! Just wanted to take this time to say a huge thank you to you all for the lovely comments and for sharing your personal stories and experiences through #AloIOuFaiva. I know a lot of you have been asking for translation of the song for further understanding so here is the official translation of the verses and chorus. The rap is a work in progress :) Love and blessings to you all from Livi and I!
    Verse 1
    My son hear these words
    Prepare yourself and stand firm in the choice that you have made
    This world around us
    Is full of hardship and temptation
    That will weaken your resolve
    You must be strong and courageous
    Go forth with a joyful heart and may you prosper.
    Chorus
    Embark on your journey, may it be prosperous. Holdfast and stay strong in times of trials. God will be with you along every path you travel
    Verse 2
    My daughter listen closely to these words.
    May you never forget the tears of your mother as you travel along the vast seas of your journey.
    I stress to you, you are the protector and keeper of this family.
    My daughter I bid you to do well.
    Arise, fold up your mat and put your pillow aside.
    Remain strong till the very end!
    ✨✊🏽🇼🇸🇦🇸❤️

    Hi im not Samoan I am Puerto Rican but I grew up with a Samoan family. So yes I fully understand there language and I can reply to alot of things they say in Samoan. Every time I herd this song reminds me of my Aunty as I call her. So what I did was learn this song word per word and it took me 3 months but I did and now when I sing I sound more and more Samoan and I am very proud of saying I am Puerto Rican/ Samoan lol My next goal in life is to go to Western Samoa as soon as Corona Virus is over.

Thank you uso. this jam will forever remind me off roots and will also help with my study’s, it will encourage me and remind me of my parents, family and also my country. Thank you so much uso and keep it up.

    I'm samoan and I understood every word in this song and the message behind...i gotta say, I've been looking for a song just like this for a long time because no matter what i say or do, my siblings won't understand how important our parents are....they may be strict but they do that for our safety and our life...our parents will always do what's best for us even if it means for them to be strict..they love us with all of their hearts and will ALWAYS protect us. I made my siblings listen to this song and it brought tears to their eyes even myself and our parents..I opened their eyes with the help of this beautiful song so thank you..without this song, I dont know what I would do....THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤❤

    I’m not Samoan, but saw this video when I was living (over 15 years) in Samoa with my Samoan husband. The depth of emotion and feeling you poured into recording the song brought me to tears. My Samoan isn’t really good, but my husband was able to translate the message for me. Though I was raised in an entirely different culture in the US, I, too, have deep respect for my parents and grandparents. I appreciated the message in the song and just loved way you put everything into singing it.

    I attended a birthday where a father and mother danced to this song for their eldest son with special needs.
    I've never heard of this song before until I attended this birthday. I was an emotional wreck! The lyrics melted my heart, so deep! As a Samoan Christian wife and mother of 4 children. It had spiritual truth behind it, Gods grace towards us through His son Christ. A son plays a huge role within a home, one day he will become a leader in his own family, leading his wife and children. No matter what obstacles, pain and suffering we go through in life, we continue to persevere through it all in our FAITH in Christ alone. Thank you for writing such a deep and meaningful song. It has a profound message. 🙏🏼❤

    I don't understand the words to this song as I'm Maori but I sing this song with so much passion, I feel the glory of God threw this song and love it so much. I'm slowly learning tho as I live with Samoans but must I say I do love all island songs no matter the culture. Thank you so much as I feel island songs speak more to me then my own culture xx
