HAU LA

Lyrics & TRanslation

(Languages: English and Gagana Tokelau)
​

I was born to move like this 
You were born to do this too
We were made to feel this groove
They don't need to understand 
Hiding tryna play it cool 
But we should give 'em something new
Baby won't you take my hand 
We don't have to play pretend 
Show them how we're different

Kua leva lava kave kehe
(Been a while since we parted)
Kua leva ki taua lue
(Been a while since we swayed)
Hakahaka mate mata malie
(Dancing with an easy smile)
Taku pepe
(My baby)

And with that look in your eyes I can see
That you feel the same way 
So just take my hand
Let's take it back

E ko te lue lue mai ve
(Hey, you gotta shake it like that)
Fakaaliali mai
(And really show it)
E toa tele tele kehe
(Hey, so bold so different)

Hau La
(Come on)

E koe ki na
(Hey you there)
Aua te mataku
(Don't be afraid)
​
He popole ni tagata matamata mai
(Don't worry about people looking)
Olo koe ki ei
(Just go for it)
