Sasi sasi o to aro aroO angi si nau boroi amuNi ma oe e fasi koronaDolali dasa na, lao dai afuimaeAfuta guau mauri, Afuta wela inomaeSasi sasi ae o angisi nauBoroi nima oe e fasi koro naDolali dasa na, lao dai afuimaeAfuta guau mauri, Afuta wela inomae Young brother, young brother you be quietAlthough you are crying to meYour father has left usHe has gone to the place of the deadProtect the head of the living, Protect the orphan childYoung brother, young brother hey? although you are crying to me Your father has left usHe has gone to the place of the deadProtect the head of the living, protect the orphan child Interpreting the Song:This interpretation and lyrics come from one very old lady, living in Fataleka (one of the Solomon Islands), as translated by her grandchildren. The song is said to be very old and hence the new generation does not understand every word.The song is about a young child crying because he does not see his father with the family. In response his elder sister sung this song to comfort as well as tell him the reality, with an appeal for their deceased father to protect this child in the land of the living (local ancient belief is that the dead care for loved ones they left behind).The old woman also said that the sample, if listened to carefully, used some words and sounds that were added to make it sound more melo. Expression of some words twice, as well pronounciation of most of the words are different from that of normal conversation. Eg. 'O' should be OE', Angiangi should be angisi. This is very common with local traditional songs.Thanks to the people of the Solomon Islands for the lyrics, translation, and interpretation

Sep 6, 2008 - I LOVE this song. I haven't seen this video in almost 10 years, and even then it was only a clip for the MTV International VMAs (best foreign song or something). I still remember hearing it in a car commercial, and that was the first time I heard Deep Forest. I wish they would come out with a new album that isn't a compilation or live recording

Sep 6, 2008 - this is not an actual langues. they use backward masking for vocals. a reverse playback reveals a secret satanic message.

Sep 6, 2008 - I think there´s no need for any songtext or translation... you can feel the intention of the song, cause you can feel pain, fear and desperation, but although something that encourages you to never give up, no matter what happens to you
