The song was composed by the late Tu’imala Kaho also known as Tonga’s nightingale. The song is titiled “Manava kuo hala” or “The fatal breath” and was composed after Tu’imala’s daughter Heimataura Anderson married the late Prince ‘Alaivahamama’o Tuku’aho who was later appointed to the Ma’atu title before his death in 2004. He was an older brother of King Tupou VI. The wedding in 1980 cost the Prince his title because he disobeyed the kingdom’s constitution and the king’s prerogative after marrying a commoner. Five years later Heimataura died of cancer and the ex-prince returned to Tonga from Hawai’i. Tu’imala has been lamenting the loss of her daughter since her passing in 1985 which depicts in most of the songs she composed. Often refer to her daughter’s choice in marriage (cost the prince his title) and Heimataura premature death due to short terminal illness as “Fatal Breath”.

Seuke he manava kuo hala
Mapu hoi uhu pea toe langa
Fiu 'ukuma kae 'ikai malava
Hanu hoku loto ki tanekinanga
Ofongia hoku loto 'e he mamahi
Ianu ianu moe vai Sari Sari
Ratu tuki lau ke talia mai
Inu lo'imata e lava 'e hai
Munomuna ‘a Tuineketi Kinarusa
'A e sisi fungani lolo Lakemba
Rewa e koe turaga ona maga
'Alaha 'i mauhu hoko koe fa
Siota sisi Alamea Heilala
Na'e tui mei Pule Kasaga
'E Tu'i Savau koe pale kuo lava
Ho'o puli hoku tui tu'u Heilala
'Isa he Matangi Kuo ta'emingao
Hamumu he 'ea tuu lau lau
Ta koe tau ena kuo kafo
Otu Lau e ko'eni kuo u kafo
Munomuna ‘a Tuineketi Kinarusa (2)
'A e sisi fungani lolo Lakemba
Rewa e koe duraga ona maga
Rewa e koe turaga ona maga
'Alaha 'i mauhu hoko koe fa
