Ko e ʻEikí ko ʻEku Maama
Ngaahi Himí
(1994, 1994 ed.), 45
1. Ko e ʻEikí ko ʻeku maama,ʻI he ʻaho mo e pō kotoá,Ko hoku falalaʻanga pē iá,ʻO kau ka mamahi pe fiefiá.
[Chorus]Ko ʻeku maamá,Mo ʻeku fiefiáʻAho mo e pō,ʻOkú Ne tatakiʻi au.
2. Ko e ʻEikí ko ʻeku maama,Te u tui ki he ʻAfioná,Angimui ki Heʻene folofolá,Fakatupu ai ha fuʻu koloá.
3. Ko e ʻEikí ko ʻeku maama,Pea ʻikai te u ilifiá,He te Ne ʻomi mo ha fuʻu ivi,Keu ikuna ʻaki hoku filí.
4. Ko e ʻEikí ko ʻeku maama,Te Ne fakangalo ʻeku hiá,ʻI Heʻene fuʻu manavaʻofá,ʻO kau ka fou he hala ne tofá.
