[1st Verse]
A
Isa Isa, you are my only treasure
D         A            E7       
Must you leave me, so lonely and
    A
 forsaken?
        A
As the roses will miss the sun at 
dawn,
D       A        E7              
Every moment my heart for you is 
  A
yearning~

[Chorus]
A7   D                      A
Isa Lei, the purple shadow falling
          A          D          
Sad, the morrow will dawn upon my 
   A
sorrow

Ah forget not, when you're far away
A                E7   A
Precious moments at Suva

[2nd Verse]
A
Isa, my heart was filled with 
pleasure,
D            A      E7          
From the moment, I heard your 
             A
tender heart greeting,
A
Amid the sunshine, we spent the 
hours together,
D        A            E7        
Now so swiftly those happy hours
       A
 are fleeting.

[Chorus]
A7   D                      A
Isa Lei, the purple shadow falling
          A          D          
Sad, the morrow will dawn upon my 
   A
sorrow
A7     D            Bm7         A
Ah forget not, when you're far away
A                E7   A
Precious moments at Suva

[3rd Verse]
          A
Over the ocean your island home is 
calling,
D       A             E7        
Happy country where roses bloom 
     A
and splendor,
A
Oh if I could but journey there 
beside you
D      A         E7             
Then forever my heart would sing
     A
 in rapture.

[Chorus]
A7   D                      A
Isa Lei, the purple shadow falling
          A          D          
Sad, the morrow will dawn upon my 
   A
sorrow
A7     D            Bm7         A
Ah forget not, when you're far away
A                E7   A
Precious moments at Suva
A                E7   A
Precious moments at Suva
