Ne Fai pē mei Kālevale

Lyrics

1. 1. Ne fai pē mei kālevale,
   Fefaʻuhi pē mo e mate,
   Hake mei he faʻitoka
   Hoko ko e mataʻikoloa,
2. ʻOfa ē ka ko ha ʻofa,
   Fai ʻe Sīsū he ʻakau
   ʻOiauē ʻa e ngaahi kafo
   Ne mamahi ka tau hao.
3. 2. Ne Ne ongosia fau,
   He huhuʻi koe mo au,
   Taki ki he fakamaau
   Lami ʻEne ʻofa fau,
4. ʻOfa ē ka ko ha ʻofa,
   Fai ʻe Sīsū he ʻakau
   ʻOiauē ʻa e ngaahi kafo
   Ne mamahi ka tau hao.
5. 3. Vakai hono taki atu,
   Ke tutuki ki he ʻakau,
   ʻO Ne ongosia fau
   Mate koeʻuhi ko au,
6. ʻOfa ē ka ko ha ʻofa,
   Fai ʻe Sīsū he ʻakau
   ʻOiauē ʻa e ngaahi kafo
   Ne mamahi ka tau hao.
7. 4. ʻOku fuʻu ongo mai,
   ʻA Hono fetakiaki,
   Tafe toto he moʻunga
   Ko e fakatau fonua,
8. ʻOfa ē ka ko ha ʻofa,
   Fai ʻe Sīsū he ʻakau
   ʻOiauē ʻa e ngaahi kafo
   Ne mamahi ka tau hao.
