Fakatotoka

1. Naʻe ʻaloʻi mai ʻa Sīsū Ka-
laisi ʻi he ʻaiʻangakai ʻo e manu
Naʻe ʻikai siʻano mohenga ka
ko e mohuku pē naʻe ʻaloʻi aí.

2. Tangi ʻa e pulu pea ʻā ʻa e pēpē
ka ko siʻi Sīsū naʻá Ne naʻa pē
Sīsū ē kuó Ne ʻafio mai mei langi
ʻokú Ne leʻohi au he poʻulí.

3. Afe mai ā Sīsū ē ke ta nofo,
ʻAofi au pea ke ta feʻao
Tāpuakiʻi fai homau leʻohi
pea tau nofo maʻu ʻi hēvaní.
