1. Fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua, Ki Heʻene palōfitá. Ke tānaki fakataha ʻEne kakai talangofuá.
Tānaki ʻaki ʻa e kōsipeli ʻA ʻEne kōsipeli ʻOku ʻi ai Ha fonua, kuo teu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻo fakatatau mo e talaʻofa, Ko ia te ne hū ki ai ʻe fiefia, Pea ʻe fai maʻu ai pē.
2. ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻE hoko ʻa e ʻaho, Te u tohi ʻEku fono he kakano honau lotó.
Tānaki ʻaki ʻa e kōsipeli ʻA ʻEne kōsipeli ʻOku ʻi ai Ha fonua, kuo teu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻo fakatatau mo e talaʻofa, Ko ia te ne hū ki ai ʻe fiefia, Pea ʻe fai maʻu ai pē.
