    The Sipi Tau (Tongan War Dance)

    'Ei e! Ei e!

    Teu lea pea tala ki mamani katoa

    Ko e 'ikale taki kuo halofia

    Ke 'ilo 'e he sola moe taka

    Koe 'aho ni teu tamate tangata

    'A e haafe mo e tautua'a

    Kuo hu'i hoku anga tangata

    He! He! 'Ei e. Tu

    Teu peluki e molo moe foueti taka

    Pea ngungu mo ha loto fita'a

    Keu mate ai he ko hoku loto

    Ko Tonga pe mate ki he moto

    Ko Tonga pe mate ki he moto

    'Ei e! Ei e!

    English translation:

    I shall speak to the whole world

    The sea eagle is starved

    Let the foreigner and sojourner beware

    Today, destroyer of souls I am, everywhere

    To the half back and the backs

    I have shed my human characteristics

    Maul and loose forwards I shall mow

    And crunch any fierce hearts you know

    I drink the ocean and consume the fire

    To death or victory my will is fine

    That's how Tonga gives to her motto

    To her motto, Tonga gives all

    To her motto, Tonga gives all

    Hi! Hi!
