Heʻene fanga sipi.
Lahi ʻa e ʻofa ne tuku,
Kiate kinautolu.
ʻOku ʻofa ʻa e tauhi.
He fanga sipi ne hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu ke kumi.
ʻI he potu fulipē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu fano pē,
Ke kumi ʻa e sipi hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu ke omi,
ʻOmi ki he lotoʻā.
2. ʻOku ʻofa ʻa e tauhi,

ʻA e fanga lami ne hē,
Maʻu ʻo Ne fiefia.
ʻIlo ʻa e lami ne hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu fano pē,
Ke kumi ʻa e sipi hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu ke ʻomi,
ʻOmi ki he lotoʻā.

Ke kumi ʻa e sipi hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu ke ʻomi,
ʻOmi ki he lotoʻā.

ʻIo te mau tali leva,
Fiefia ho ui.
Tuku mai ho mau ngafa,
Hoko ko e siʻi kau tauhi.
Tuku ke mau ō ʻo kumi.
Hoʻo fanga sipi ne hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu fano pē,
Ke kumi ʻa e sipi hē.
ʻOkú Ne ʻalu ke ʻomi,
ʻOmi ki he lotoʻā.
