Despite the years gone, love remains young, “Ua Vai ‘Āpī”. The song is about someone who is reminiscing the good old days, the time he was younger, on the beach and in love.

Tahitian Lyrics – Ua Vai ‘Āpī
I terā rā tau
I to’u vai ‘āpīra’a
Ua here ho’i au ia ‘oe
Tahiti Nui e
I ni’a i te one
I te hiti o te pape
I mana’o ai au i to’u vai ‘āpīra’a
E noa atu te tau ‘aita i mo’e
Ia’u to ‘oe nehenehe rahi
E noa atu te tau e te mau matahiti
Ua vai ‘āpī noa to’u here no o’e
I ni’a i te one
I te hiti o te pape
I mana’o ai au i to’u vai ‘āpīra’a
Ua ‘ite au ua vai ‘āpī to’u here no ‘oe
