ʻOku Maʻongoʻonga ē Hoʻo ʻOfa

 


Lyrics

  1. 1. ʻOku maʻongoʻonga ē,

    Hoʻo ʻofa Sīsū ē,

    Taki au Ho Laumālié,

    Ke ʻoua naʻá ku hē,

    ʻAve ʻeku angahalá,

    Pea fakangalomiá

    Huhuʻi ē mahuʻingá,

    Ki hotau faʻahingá.

  2. 2. ʻOku maʻongoʻonga ē,

    Kuo hā ho ivi pē,

    Neongo ʻa e vaivaí,

    Ka ʻokú ke tataki,

    Hoku hala ki he ʻEikí,

    Hala ʻoku fāsiʻi,

    Huhuʻi ē mahuʻingá,

    Heʻikai hē ha tahá.

  3. 3. ʻOku maʻongoʻonga ē,

    Fakafiemālié,

    Ki he loto naʻe ʻauhē,

    ʻI he vanu ʻo e maté,

    Fakanonga ʻa e peaú,

    Ko ha lotomaumaú,

    Huhuʻi ē mahuʻingá,

    Nofo ai taʻe ngatá.
