Tānaki Ho Ngaahi Tāpuaki
1. ʻO ka ke ka fononga he faingataʻá,ʻOua naʻá ke manavasiʻi,ʻO mahalo kuo mole ia kotoa,Kae maʻu ho ngaahi tāpuaki.
Tānaki ʻaho tāpuaki.Tānaki ʻolau taki taha,Tānaki ʻae tāpuaki.Sio ki he ʻofaʻa e ʻOtua.
2. Pea ʻo ka faingataʻa ʻa e ngāue,ʻA ia kuo ui koe ke ke fai,Tānaki hoʻo ngaahi tāpuaki,Peá ke hiva koe ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho.
Tānaki ʻaho tāpuaki.Tānaki ʻolau taki taha,Tānaki ʻae tāpuaki.Sio ki he ʻofaʻa e ʻOtua.
3. ʻO ka ke ka sio ki he kakai,Mo honau fonua mo ʻenau koula,Manatuʻi kuo talaʻofa ʻe Sīsū,Ha koloa taʻe ʻi ai hano ngataʻanga.
Tānaki ʻaho tāpuaki.Tānaki ʻolau taki taha,Tānaki ʻae tāpuaki.Sio ki he ʻofaʻa e ʻOtua.
4. Tānaki ho ngaahi tāpuaki,ʻE tokoni ʻe he kau ʻāngelo,Te nau fakafiemālieʻi koe,Ki he ngataʻanga ʻo e fonongá.
Tānaki ʻaho tāpuaki.Tānaki ʻolau taki taha,Tānaki ʻae tāpuaki.Sio ki he ʻofaʻa e ʻOtua.
