Freedom Fighters

I'm 16 years old
And people are fighting for my rights,
My father included
Are trying to keep hope for our future in sight.
 
These fighters for our freedom,
with voices often ignored,
Use logic and honesty;
As their corruption killing sword.
 
Even when knocked down,
They just get up and battle again,
Not with guns or bombs,
But with the power of a pen.
 
They fight for integrity.
They fight for peace.
They fight for pointless wars
To cease.
 
These people spread
Far and wide;
Their numbers growing everyday
Rising like a tide.
 
They do it for kids like me
And to remind people of what truly matters.
They are an army of hope,
They are our true freedom fighters.
 
Translation

Tamatau Tau'ataaina

'Oku ou ta'u ngofulumaaono
Pea 'oku tau'i 'eku kaainga maa 'eku ngaahi ngofua
Kae'uma'a si'eku tamai
Ko ia 'oku nau 'ahi'ahi ke tauhi 'aki 'a e 'amanaki ki he mamata 'o homau kaha'u.
 
Ko e kau tamatau ni maa 'emau tau'ataaina
Mo e 'u'ulu 'oku ta'etokanga'i tuolahi
Faka'aonga'i 'a e angafakakauakau mo e angatonu;
'O hange ko honau heletaa tamate'i 'au'auha
 
Neongo 'e tui'i 'a nautolu ki lalo ni
Ka nau toe hiki ki 'olunga 'o toe tau'i
Ka 'ikai mo e me'afana mo e ngaahi pomu
Ka ko e maalohi 'o e me'atohi.
 
Nau tau'i maa 'a e totonu
Nau tau'i maa 'a e melino
Nau tau'i maa 'a e ngaahi tau fakavale
Ke ta'ofia ia.
 
'Alu 'a nautolu
Mama'o mo laulahi 'i Maamani
Tupu honau tokolahi 'aho kotoa pe
Tupu 'o hange ko e mamaha.
 
Nau 'ai ia maa 'a e kauleka 'o hange ko au
Pea ke toe fakamanatu 'a e kakai ki he me'a 'oku mahu'inga mo'oni
Ko ia ko e kau tamatau 'o 'amanaki
Ko ia ko homau tamatau tau'ataaina mo mo'oni.
