林明福（1930-），泰雅史詩吟唱重要保存者。出生於桃園縣復興鄉澤仁村（大嵙崁群溪口台），因歷經不同的政權，而有三個名字，分別為Watan Tanga、戶山義男、林明福。他能演唱Msgamil（溯源史詩），從傳說中祖居地的神話傳說開始，到泰雅先祖－勒戈門波塔（IkmButa）的發跡，以「行前訓示－路線探勘－帶領遷徙」等嚴謹的三部曲形式來唱。也能掌握泰雅族遷移史，並精通泰雅傳統古調Lmuhuw的即興吟唱，這些都是源自父親Tanga Hola的傳承。父親熟稔周遭各部落遷徙過程，並在辭世前留下錄音資料，使Watan得以習得Msgamil。2012年Watan被登錄為文化部重要傳統表演藝術保存者。他的Lmuhuw引述了大祖宗Ikm Buta的訓示及叮嚀，如同一部活的泰雅史記於當代傳唱不朽。

Watan Tanga (1930-) is a major preserver of Atayal epic chants. He was born in Rahaw in Msbtunux , Ze-Ren Village , Fuxing Township , Taoyuan and given three names due to transitions of political power: “Watan Tanga”, “Yoshio Toyama”, and “LIN Ming-Fu” . He can sing Msgamil (origin-seeking epics) in the form of a rigorously structured trilogy comprising “pre-departure instructions, route searching, and leading the migration”, covering myths and legends of the ancestral home as well as accomplishments by Atayal ancestor IkmButa. He is also versed in Atayal migration history and improvising Lmuhuw, a type of traditional Atayal tunes. Watan inherited all these from his father Tanga Hola who was versed in the histories of neighboring tribes’ migration. Watan also learned about Msgamil with the recordings of singing left by his father. In 2012, Watan was recognized by the Ministry of Culture as an important preserver of traditional performing arts. His Lmuhuw refers to instructions and injunctions of Atayal ancestor Ikm Buta, which are eternally circulated and sung as part of Atayal’s living history.
