2 “ʻOiauē ʻa e faʻahinga ʻoku nau faʻufaʻu ʻa e meʻa ʻoku fakatupu maumaú,

ʻA ia ʻoku nau palani ʻa e koví ʻi honau ngaahi mohengá!

ʻI he maama mai ʻa e pongipongí ʻoku nau fakahoko ia,

Koeʻuhí ʻoku maʻu ʻe honau nimá+ ʻa e mālohi ke fai ia.

 3 ʻOku pōtoʻi honau nimá ʻi hono fai ʻa e meʻa ʻoku koví;+

ʻOku kounaʻi ʻe he houʻeikí ha meʻaʻofa,

ʻOku kole ʻa e fakamāú ki ha totongi,+

ʻOku ʻai ʻe he tokotaha tuʻu-ki-muʻá ʻa ʻene ngaahi holí+ ke ʻiloʻi,

Pea ʻoku nau faʻufaʻu fakataha ia.*
