Telek
Taken from Telek‘s album Serious Tam, released in 2000.

Lyrics:
You will blow the bamboo flute
And you’ll turn
And you will dream hai-ho
And that lady with two colourful leaves
As you come face to face with the spiral hai-ho

Mauna riri-i-i
Ma una ririwon eao
Ma namo iamagit ra ura ngenge
Namidal
Uwarboboi mara tulungeam eao
