Piki Sau (Traditional)

Valuvalu au penu, tutu au moa

Valaʻau le sapelu, ʻai ʻua lēiloa

Tālofa e ia Piki, ʻua sau ma toloaʻi

Alu atu e sefulu ma le lua

ʻAe foʻi mai e selau ma le tasi

Piki sau, sau e ʻai au popo Popo ʻua ʻuma ona sali

Ma fafao i totonu o le ʻato

Oʻo i le Aso Sā, sau Piki ʻua ‘īvā

Oʻo i le Aso Gafua, sau piki ʻua mū ʻo le ua

Oʻo i le Aso Lua, alu Piki suʻe sona toʻalua

Oʻo i le Aso Lulu, sau Piki ʻua veke le ulu

Usu atu ʻo le sue, tutu lana faʻapusa

ʻOtegia le ʻavaʻava, ʻua susū ʻaulama

Oʻo i le Aso Tofi, sau Piki ʻua māʻosiʻosi

Oʻo i le Aso Faraile, ʻo Piki na ‘ai e le maile

Oʻo i le Aso Toʻonaʻi, sau Piki ma lana faʻamaʻi

Oʻo loa i le Aso Sā, sau Piki ma si ana āvā

Translation

Grate the coconut, feed the chickens

Call for the machete, it was probably lost

Poor Piki, he’s come back crawling

He left and there were twelve

He’s returned and now there’s a hundred and one

Piki, come, come and eat your coconut

It’s already been prepared And put inside the basket

On Sunday, Piki was exhausted

On Monday, Piki burnt his neck

On Tuesday, Piki searched for a spouse

On Wednesday, Piki was bumped his head

Prepare the material, light the oven

Scold the fish, ʻcause all the tinder got wet

On Thursday, Piki got all scratched up

On Friday, Piki was bitten by a dog

On Saturday, Piki got sick

On Sunday, Piki found a wife
