Leʻo-maʻamaʻa

1. ʻE Saione ʻi ʻolungá,

Kolo ʻoku ʻofeina,

Pea fakaʻofoʻofa

ʻA hono ngaahi teunga,

ʻA e ngaahi matapā ʻi lei

Mo e fuʻu temipalé

[Chorus]

Ko e kolo fakaʻofa

hono maama ē

ʻA e nāunau ʻo Sihová.

2. ʻA e kau hiva ʻi Hēvaní,

Ke u ʻi ai pea mo au,

[Chorus]

Ko e kolo fakaʻofa

Pea fakakofu ʻakí,

Kofu hina ekiakí,

Te u fuʻu fai feinga

Ke u mālōlō ʻi hená.

[Chorus]

Ko e kolo fakaʻofa

hono maama ē

ʻA e nāunau ʻo Sihová.
