Awiyaana
My little love poem is here translated into Awiyaana (Auyana, Awíyááná), a language of the Kainantu-Goroka languages family.
More precisely, Awiyaana, like Gadsup, is a language of the Western Kainantu family.
This language is spoken in the Eastern Highlands region of Papua New Guinea.
The speakers live in fifteen villages, in the districts of Okapa, Kainantu and, Obura, and their number is just over 11,000.
