Lyrics - Tahitian
(Folk song)
Taoto pepe,
Taoto te pepe taoto e,
Era mama tei te a’ au,
Era papa tei te peho,
E ti’ i atu ra i te fe’i,
Hamani popoi na ‘ aiu.
English Translation - Sleep baby
Sleep baby,
Sleep baby sleep, yeah,
Mama went to the reef
Papa went to the valley
To pick plantains
To make baby’s porridge.
