Fānau Au ʻa e ʻOtuá
1. Fānau au ʻa e ʻOtua,kuó ne fekau maí.Ke u haʻu ki he māmanimo e ongo mātuʻa.
Taki au, ʻeva mo au,ke u ʻilo ʻa e halá.Akoʻi au ke u fai lelei,Ke nofo mo Ia ha ʻaho.
2. Fānau au ʻa e ʻOtua,lahi ʻeku fie maʻú.Tokoni ke u ʻiloʻi pau,naʻa fuʻu tomui.
Taki au, ʻeva mo au,ke u ʻilo ʻa e halá.Akoʻi au ke u fai lelei,Ke nofo mo Ia ha ʻaho.
3. Fānau au ʻa e ʻOtua,kuo mohu tāpuaki.Kapau te u fai ho finangalóte u nofo ʻiate koe.
Taki au, ʻeva mo au,ke u ʻilo ʻa e halá.Akoʻi au ke u fai lelei,Ke nofo mo Ia ha ʻaho.
4. Fānau au ʻa e ʻOtuáPau ʻene talaʻofáTe u maʻu ʻa e nāunaúKapau te u kātakí
Taki au, ʻeva mo au,ke u ʻilo ʻa e halá.Akoʻi au ke u fai lelei,Ke nofo mo Ia ha ʻaho.
