Fanongo ki he Palōfita

 


Lyrics

  1. 1. Fanongo ki he palōfita mo e ʻEikí,

    ʻAkonaki ʻofa fai e ngāue ʻa e ʻOtuá.

    Ui ʻEne tamaioʻeiki ke ne malangá,

    Folofola Hoko ko ʻEne fakaʻilongá.

  2. 2. Ongona palōfita he fonua kotoá,

    Fakahā ki māmani ʻa e ongoongoleleí,

    Pōpoaki toputapu ko e fakamoʻoní,

    ʻA e kau palōfita kotoa ʻi māmani.

  3. 3. Hosana! Fakafetaʻi ki Hono tāloní,

    Fiefia! Pea fakahā ʻoku Ne ʻafioʻí,

    Tokanga ʻa māmani pea fanongo ki aí,

    Maʻu ʻa e kī ʻo e lakanga taulaʻeikí.
