Indeed my bretheren, Fijians have such beautiful voices that God has given them. This is my kinda music, nothing fancy, just the pure honesty of these voices and the lyrics....Good on Ya bros...Oh I'm originally from PNG
Translation of lyrics As the sun goes down on this day Darkness falls on my world We received the news about you Oh my child your leaving makes me sad When you were growing up Adi Ateca You were loved in your home Your humbleness and obedience Made you precious to your parents You left home to pursue your studies Delai Tamavua in the nursing school Adi Ateca Romacamaitali 1991 was your class Why oh why did you leave us my child All our hopes for you have been dashed We cry so much because it hurts us that you’ve left us My child I am so sad and I just can’t stop crying Bye the owner of a good heart Adi Ateca let you be blessed Were so surprised by your passing What can we say but say goodbye my daughter
In Fiji, we have our own way of singing, this is the Northern way of singing especially the province of Cakaudrove. This is usually sung at a Kava Session and is so nice to listen too
Thank you ☺️ Much to my shame, I know absolutely nothing about your culture(s), but I would like to learn. Could you recommend me a website with good information about Fiji? Last, but not least, what is this song about? Can I find the lyrics in English anywhere? I do not trust AI translations.
Beautiful song! I miss fiji so much, the english cannot compete with the passion you put into your music, especially when i want to have a proper grog session, i miss the lads singing. Vinakaaa!
The song is about a young woman who paased away' while shes in Nursing school in Fiji..The song desribes the good characters of the girl & also decribes how their parents felt towards her passing...
Indeed they are the best Group singers ever to be heard in Fiji. Please, can someone tell me is Adi Ateca whom they are singing about, is she the eldest daughter of Ratu Mara ???

I agree with you 100%.
Translation of lyrics
As the sun goes down on this day
Darkness falls on my world
We received the news about you
Oh my child your leaving makes me sad
When you were growing up Adi Ateca
You were loved in your home
Your humbleness and obedience
Made you precious to your parents
You left home to pursue your studies
Delai Tamavua in the nursing school
Adi Ateca Romacamaitali
1991 was your class
Why oh why did you leave us my child
All our hopes for you have been dashed
We cry so much because it hurts us that you’ve left us
My child I am so sad and I just can’t stop crying
Bye the owner of a good heart
Adi Ateca let you be blessed
Were so surprised by your passing
What can we say but say goodbye my daughter
Jone Waqa I’m sure every islander around the world feels home call like this.
Thank you 😊
Isa Tavalequ sa tuga na sere me lagataki kina nomu gone yalo vinaka, dauveikawaitaki sa ko yali......Isa Teca😭😭
Yes, I'm finding that all people from the South Pacific have wonderful harmonic voices. The singing is very soothing & comes from the soul.
In Fiji, we have our own way of singing, this is the Northern way of singing especially the province of Cakaudrove. This is usually sung at a Kava Session and is so nice to listen too
