Te Galu ka Tu Nei (with lyrics)

Te Galu kā Tu Nei - traditional song This song comes from the Nukunonu Baby Group. The song is about paddlers who steer their canoe through the reef. The moment when the canoe heads out from the safety of the lagoon through the waves that crash on the reef is a dramatic moment for all fishermen. Timing, teamwork, and wise decision-making are crucial. The song celebrates these skills. "Te Galu kā Tu Nei" can be translated as: A wave is now approaching. Paddle the canoe, paddle the canoe, Paddle the canoe forward. Yes! Go! Yes! Go forward! Go forward! Paddle the canoe forward. Alofa atu!
