Fais Fale Ilethow(Fais Women from the West)
Description This dance features three sons who have gone off to school abroad. This dance is usually performed by six or seven men of different ages. Long ago, only men were allowed to leave home to attend schools outside the island. This chant depicts how much the women missed their sons when they were away for school. It talks about their heartbreaking sorrow and their dire hope for not losing them and for having them back again.
