Sau vali vali

Found this email today written by Abba in 2006. I can still hear his voice singing it-

FYI, with love...

It's a Samoan song that I sang to your mother when we were courting; in particular, driving her to summer school from Las Vegas, in 1962:

Sau vali vali means go for a walk
Tau tala tala means too much talk,
Alofa ia te oe means I love you,
Take it easy, sai sai le mu!

Love, --Abba
