Veesi1:
Matafi e tonga 'i he langi ma'a
Ka u 'ūpē au he kakala
Fala Mohokoi ko ho toka'anga
Sēnile e kako sialetafa
Mele Pusiaki ko e heilala
Pea mo e huni ‘o Matekifanga
Falahola 'o Langi Tu'ofefafa
Na'e hopo 'i 'Alo-ki-Ha'afata
'Eseni o ho'o kaloni mapa
He ko e fefine 'o e taulanga
Verse1:
Let the south wind sweep across the clear sky
While I sing a lullaby of the kakala
The mat of mohokoi is your sleeping-place
Your bedspread the plaited sialetafa
Mele Pusiaki the heilala tree
And the huni of Matekifanga
Falahola of the Langi Tu’ofefafa
That ripened at 'Alo-ki-Ha'afata
For the essence of your mapa cologne
For you are the lady of the harbour
Tau:
Siu’ilikutapu ke me'ite mu'a
Ke ke sāliote ‘i hoku uma
Ke ta 'eve'eva 'i he Hala Vuna
'O toli ho sisi tau'olunga
‘I he fisi 'o e ahi mo e vunga
Na’e fi i Ha'avaka'otua
‘O haha 'i loto Kolomotua
Pea mo e Sopu-o-Tāufa
Ta'engali koa e tūkuhua
He ko e fefine mei loto Mu'a
Chorus:
Hush, Siu’ilikutapu, do not cry
Use my shoulder as a chariot
So we two can stroll down Vuna Road
To pick flowers for your dancing girdle
Among the blossoms of the ahi and vunga
Plaited at Ha'avaka'otua
Threshed at the heart of Kolomotu’a And the Sopu-o-Taufa
These praises are by no means idle
For you are a lady of central Mu'a
Veesi2:
Singi songo e Tau'atāina
Ke ongona 'e he 'Otu Kinekina
Halatoaongo mo e fāhina
'Oku tapa ai e salaia
Ko e fa'u'anga ia e 'uhinga
Ka ta hola na'a lau ko e hia
Pea tautea noa ai kita
'E Tonga 'Eiki mo e Funga Sia
Hāngaitokelau ke kaila
Fefine Vava'u 'ilo 'e he tika
Verse2:
The singing of the Tau'ataina group Can be heard from the 'Otu Kinekina Halatoaongo and the fahina
Where flashes the sapphire
Designing place of your birth
But let us flee lest I am blamed
And punished for no fault of mine
By Tonga 'Eiki and Funga Sia
Hangaitokelau, shout out
The wise know you are a lady of Vava'u

Thank you so much for the translation. Tongan poetry is so beautiful and special thanks to Queen Salote for taking extra steps to preserve these aspects of our culture.
RIP Princess Siu'ilikutapu ❤️ toka e nonga moe fiemalie ae Eiki!

Thank you so much for sharing, I love Tongan music, the culture, the food, have me a Tongan husband too but I'm 🇨🇰 As a pacific woman, I see in our language & cultures in a sense too that we are all family ❤ so I feel privileged to be able to learn songs that really speak to me when the lyrics are shared. Malo aupito! 😘

Lyrics
Verse 1:
Matafi e Tonga ‘i he langi ma’a
Kau ‘upe au he kakala
Fala mohokoi koho toka’anga
Senile e ka ko sialetafa
Mele pusiaki koe Heilala
Pea moe huni ‘o mate ki fanga

[@yozerrr1026]

whats the meaning of the song?

[@gsekona7722]

Song dedicated to a Tongan Royal Princess / politician that passed away .

[@roseholani8071]

Her Majesty Queen Salote III was a composer so she wrote lullubies for her grandchildren. This song was dedicated to her eldest granddaughter, her second son’s daughter, Princess Mele Siu’ilikutapu, hence the song name “‘Upē ‘O Siu’ilikutapu” translated to Lullaby of Siu’ilikutapu. So technically, it was a lullaby to lull her to sleep or to soothe her cries when she was a baby…

[@evaang3616]

Rest in peace Siu’ilikutapu 🇹🇴🇹🇴

[@longolikiliki9528]

I just know HRH would have enjoyed this new twist to her song🤍 May she continue to Rest in Peace🕊️

[@johnlangi1699]

This song hits home because my mother and the late Siu’ilikutapu were very close becoming good friends especially during their evangelical work during their singles years. Rest in peace Mele Siu’ilikutapu and rest in peace mom Tupou Taanea F.
