Tala ʻe he Folofola

Lyrics

1. 1. Tala ʻe he folofolá,

   ʻI he tohi tapú,

   Ka ʻikai haʻaku ʻofa,

   Kovi ʻete lotú,

2. [Chorus]

   Ko e lea ʻofa,

   Hā mei he ʻOtua,

   Hono ʻikai mālie mai,

   Ko e ngaahi lea ofá.

3. 2. Ke te ʻofa he ʻOtuá,

   ʻAki hoto lotó,

   Mo e ʻatamai kotoa,

   Ko e fekau iá,

4. 3. ʻOfa ki ho kaungāʻapí,

   Hangē pē ko koé,

   ʻOfa ki ho ngaahi fili,

   ʻOua naʻa tuē,

5. 4. ʻA e kātaki fuoloa

   Mo e ʻamanakí,

   Ko e fua ʻo e ʻofá

   Lau ai mo e tuí

6. 5. Ko e koloa haohaoá

   ʻOku masani iá

   Maʻu ʻa e folofolá

   Pea fai ki ai.
