Just like new

Walt : write a rap to share the facts on  a Ta’ovala.

Just like new

In the kingdom of Tonga

As a sign of respect

People wear Ta’ ovala

to a special place

to avoid family disgrace

To a funeral people wear black

If you don't you're really slack

On top of that you wear a decorated Ta’ ovala to make it flash

Ta’ ovala is passed from generation to generation

sometimes to another nation

Kiekie are the modern style

you wear it to birthdays  

and even down the aisle

Homemade ones are the best

because they beat the rest

They are made from flax

and thats a fact

with lots of love

from deep down in the heart .
