taitai måsThis is an old Chamorro song, which is still popular today, about a chapel in the “Valley of Dreams.” It’s a lovely song for weddings, and this is a new rendition from the Tradewinds album sung by the singer from Microchild, Shannon Sengebau McManus. If you’re a beginner in Chamorro, this is a great song to learn for its pleasant tune and easy lyrics. In this post are Chamorro lyrics and an English translation for the song I Kapiya. Happy listening!

Taitai MåsWhen I first listened to this song, my love and I were driving on the Oregon Coast. When we were in the car, he was the one who played the Chamorro songs for me. Then he said to me, “Listen to the song and repeat the words.” My listening in the Chamorro language is not very good and Jay knows this. He really knows this. He often teases me and says, “You don’t like to listen!” Then I answer,” That’s not true! My ear is bad in every language!” Ai my love. When I listen to this song, I think of the first time we met each other. This post includes Chamorro lyrics and an English translation for the song Guinaiya by Ti Nåpu. Happy listening!
