Description:		Dirava Ena Tau Ta is in the Motu language and one of the historical Peroveta songs saying that they pay homage to those south sea island missionaries that came to Papua New Guinea to bring the gospel and especially from islands of the Cook Islands. This song is paying homage or acknowledging that Ruatoka was the leading south sea island missionary that was brought by the LMS London Mission Society from 1871 coming from the Loyalty Islands over to the Torres Strait and to Hanuabada village. Rautoka was in Hanuabada village teaching the Hanuabada villagers how to sing these wonderful songs so Divara Ena Tau ta says this is a man of God named Ruatoka. Song Lyrics: DIRAVA ENA TAU TA Dirava ena tau ta Ladana Ruatoka Ia Dirava ena hesiai tauna Ia tau mai harina namo [repeat section] Ruatoka e boi dobi e Ruatoka e boi dobi, “Lakanifoi e, Lakanifoi e Mani aoma, lau na oi na urahenimumu”. Ruatoka egwau, “Herevana binai, a he! "Lau na Dirava mauri Ena sivarai namo na mailaia”. Lakanitoi e gwau isi e Lakanitoi e gwau isi: "Basio aladia, basio aladia! Lau bavalagu guna, gabeamo bavaladia”. Unu amo Dirava hairaina, raua raua - a he... Unu amo Dirava hairaina, raua raua - a he.. - a hedinaraia.
