"le kaisa e ma'i lauasa sola lafi i siamani o fea au folafolaga o lenei lava e tatali"

and

"tupu e o le atunu'u ua fa'atasina e le pulali fulu".....Love that, "bloody fool"

My great grandma was born on Upolu island in 1902, her favorite phrase when she got angry was "bloody fool".

There's a song "O le faga ta'avili" when the palagi shot the peaceful protestors...as a young kid just learning Samoan I never knew how important these songs were. Horrible things at the hands of the westerners.

@sandovalification

You may say that again, its a horrible thing, to think back at the courage and the wisdom of our fore fathers not to mention the love they had for the future of their descendants that they had to fight against bullets with will power.. Talofa i nai o tatou tua'a.. thanks for turning into my music house take care
