The Echo of Our Ancestors: Wisdom Through Songs and Stories

The words of our ancestors live on through the stories, songs, and chants they left behind—echoing through time, guiding us in the way we live today, and lighting the path for future generations. The wisdom in these expressions carries the essence of life itself, teaching us about patience, unity, survival, and harmony with the land and sea.

From Aiina Mai, which reminds us of the long journey of our forefathers, to Sifoa, where ancestors shaped islands from the ocean’s depths, these songs hold the foundations of our heritage. The ocean’s call in Lau Omea, the lessons of patience in Kiko, and the teachings of selflessness in Wela Nau Sawe all serve as reminders of the values that shape our people.

Through Roi Roa, we honor those who have walked before us, celebrating their contributions. Isia teaches us to live in harmony, embracing the unity of all people. These songs, like sacred chants, are not just melodies—they are the heartbeat of our culture, a bridge connecting our past, present, and future.

As we pass down these words and melodies, we ensure that the spirit of our ancestors remains alive, guiding us forward. Let us continue to treasure and share them, for they hold the wisdom of where we have come from and where we are going.
