O-SHEN - ANAPANAPA

Cover by O-Shen "Anapanapa" from the "1 Rebel" album.


Text & Music by Toa'Ura


VERSE : 2x

'ANAPANAPA,
The stars are

I TE MAU FETI'A.
shining through tonight.

'I TERA PO MATA'I,
Feeling this night breeze,

TE PAE MITI NOA TAUA
there we stand by the ocean.


CHORUS:
A)-'OE I MUA IA'U,
As you sit by me,

MAI TE MEA MATAMUA,NO TA'U NEI HINA'ARO,
you're the very first thing I long for.

'OE TE TIARE HUA 'AI TE PO.
Gazing at you remind me of a "Tiare" flower that closes-in at nightfall.


B)-'OE I MUA IA'U,
As you stand by me,

MAI TE MOEMOEA IA, NO TO'U NEI ORARA'A,
you're the one I dream of and want to be part in my life.

'OE TE TIARE HUA 'AI TE PO.
Gazing at you remind me of a "Tiare" flower that closes-in at nightfall.


REPEAT...

END


Tiare = Other than the Tahitian Gardenia, it's also another word for "flower."
