Talofa!

Welcome everybody to Tuvalu Islands Online! This Web site was developed by a Tuvaluan for the people of Tuvalu, the many friends of Tuvalu and for all welcome visitors. Tuvalu Islands Online draws together a wide range of reference material on Tuvalu in order to allow visitors to access this information from a common source. This information includes an extensive range of Tuvalu history, geography, myths and legends, singing and dancing, genealogy, World War II, travel and accommodation, as well as an extensive picture gallery of historical and contemporary images of Tuvalu.

The Tuvalu Links below also provide a gateway to all the Pacific islands on Jane's Oceania Home Page. Thank you - Fafetai!

TUVALU AND GLOBAL WARMING

Jane Resture

I hear the waves on our island shore

They sound much louder than they did before

A rising swell flecked with foam

Threatens the existence of our island home.

A strong wind blows in from a distant place

The palm trees bend like never before

Our crops are lost to the rising sea

And water covers our humble floor.

Our people are leaving for a distant shore

And soon Tuvalu may be no more

Holding on to the things they know are true

Tuvalu my Tuvalu, I cry for you.

And as our people are forced to roam

To another land to call their home

And as you go to that place so new

Take a little piece of Tuvalu with you.

Tuvalu culture is rare and unique

And holds a message we all should seek

Hold our culture way up high

And our beloved Tuvalu will never die.
