Tele i`a o le Sami
Tele fo'i la'au o le vao
Tele manu felelei i le lagii
Tele tenia afakasi
Ae sili ai oe la`u pele
Le lalelei o Samoa
Mate mai o la`u Tupua
Pe ete iloa le igoa
Tau moe atu fe le mamoe
Talu lei loha
Darling ia oe ta oona mea hai
Talu lefe ia vai
Ole mata ua
E mo`o mia e tanata
Elale lei Samoa
Ole fili ia tama
- Let me hear you whisper
Let me hear you sigh
Let me feel your arms around
me
As time goes by
Let the words you
whisper
- Make my dreams come true
- Let me hold you near me
- My whole life through
-
- When your lips caress me
- I'm all aglow
- They tell me truly
- What I want to know
-
- So hold me close dear
- Never let me go
- Let me hear you whisper
- I love you so

Hawai`i Version
- Tele i`a ole sami
- Tele fo`i la`au o le vao
- Tele manu felelei i le lagi
- Tele tama a`oe la`u pele
- Le aulelei Samoa
- Ma te mai lo`u tupua
- Pe e te iloa le igoa
Let me hear your whisper
Let me hear your sigh
Let me put my arms around you
Let me hold you tight
- Tu`u mai lo`u lima
- Tautala my dear for a while
- Sau ia, e le iloa
- `O lo`u alofa lena
There are plenty of fish in the sea
There are plenty of trees in the woods
There are oh so plenty of birds flying in the sky
There are oh so handsome boys
But there's only one I love
He's the one I love and adore
He's the boy of Samoa
