I assume you meant: "le vi stuzi" :)

You could point at the ground and say:

mi stali ti ca piro nicte

Also, about just saying one of the following?

mi vizysta ca piro nicte
mi vi stali ca piro nicte

I would argue that just because an english sentence uses "here"
the lojban transaltion doesn't always need to treat it as a sumti.
