This song is definitely a classic. My understanding is the lyrics of the song was penned by the late Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara. A high chief and one of Fiji's most honourable statesman.During one of his official travels overseas, and as always thinking and remembering his beloved Fiji, he penned the lyrics while looking through the windows of the plane. On returning, he passed on the written lyrics to the late Ratu Sir Josua Rabukawaqa(a musical genius) to create it's music and melody. Hence, the origin of this beautiful, timely classic from these two great men.
I have a record of the Phoenix Choir. Lovely songs, Adi Mei sings in the choir. I worked for Ratu Josua Rabukawaqa when he was Fiji High Commissioner London, UK, from 1970, after independence
Sa totoka dina ni rogo vinaka na qaqa ni sere kei na yaya ni qiriqiri. Old is definitely gold!!! Sivia na sere ni kavoro, Kauta ga mai na kakavorovoro ni bula kei na vuvale. Na vosa e bibi na kena volai na sere. Ni vakalesuya mai Turaga na vakasama vinaka vei keimami na lewe ni vanua o Viti. 🙏🏻❤
na sere qo dau lagata tu vei au noqu Tutu ena yabaki 2008, dau tataunaka tu ga Noqu Tutu “Veigauna kece o dau rogoca na sere qoka, kabulu ga qai no vakamalua”. Isaaa duatani ga na vosa ni noda qase. Vinakavakalevu na sere totoka
Vaka vinavinaka taki na nodra vuki kei ba rai liu nodra na qase. Bau buli kina e dua na sere ena sega ni oti rawa na kena taleitaki. May God bless Viti..
