“WAIVOU – NA VANUA NI KALOU”

Verse 1
Long before the roads, before the lights,
E dua na vanua, born of the river’s life.
Rewa flows slow, carrying names,
Na itukutuku makawa, whispered in flames.

Waivou na yavutu, where the first feet stood,
Vanua e tubu kina na bula kei na dodonu.
Danudanu na yavusa, rooted in soil,
Blood of the land, sweat of the toil.

Pre-Chorus
Na qele e vosa, na wai e rogoca,
Every footprint, the spirits remember.
From generation to generation we stand,
United by faith, by vanua, by hand.

Chorus
Waivou, Waivou — na yalo ni Rewa,
Vanua ni lotu, vanua ni veivakadeitaki dina.
From the river to the sky we rise,
E sega ni yali, our story survives.

Waivou, Waivou — stand tall and strong,
Na itovo makawa e liu ga, e sega ni coko.
Past, present, future in one breath we sing,
Na vanua tabu, forever our king.

Verse 2
Chiefs spoke softly but their words were law,
Veiliutaki vakavanua, respect and awe.
Mataqali bound by land and name,

Each tokatoka keeping history’s flame.
Drums in the night, lali calling home,
Sevusevu laid, yaqona foam.
Lotu brought light, but culture stayed,
Na vakaturaga, never to fade.

Bridge
Floods may rise, winds may test,
But Waivou hearts beat stronger than the rest.
E dau lutu na yagodra, ia e sega ni yalo,
We rebuild together, tomorrow follows.

Chorus (Repeat)
Waivou, Waivou — na yalo ni Rewa,
Vanua ni dina, vanua ni veivosoti levu.
From the elders’ voice to the children’s cry,
E sega ni cavuka rawa na noda i tovo ni bula.

Outro
So when the river speaks, say our name,
Waivou Village, forever the same.
History written in land and soul,
Na noda vanua, our eternal home.
