Fofonga fiefia

1. Fakamālō ki he ʻOtua,

ʻI Heʻene fakanofo,

ʻI māmani ha palōfita,

Ke fai Hono finangalo,

Mo tataki ʻa kitautolu,

ʻI he meʻa ʻa e ʻOtua,

Mo e hala ʻoku totonu,

Ke tau maʻu ʻa e fonua.

2. Fakamālō he toe ʻomi,

ʻA e kosipeli ʻo Sīsū,

Ki māmani ʻi onopooni,

Ki he Senitaile mo e Siu,

Tau hiva ʻaki ʻEne ʻofa,

Hiva he ʻaho mo e pō,

Vīkiviki ʻia Sihova,

He folofola kuo tō.

3. Pea neongo ʻa e manuki,

ʻA e fakatanga ʻa e kakai,

ʻE ʻikai lava ke taʻofi,

ʻEne puna ʻa e matavai,

He kuo pau pē ke mafola,

ʻI he funga ʻo māmani,

Ko e fakahaohaoaʻanga,

ʻOe kakai māʻoniʻoni.
