Tokanga ki he Taimi

Toʻotoʻo pē

1. Tokanga ki he taimi,

Fakaʻaonga maʻu pē,

Lotu he mōmeniti,

He houa fulipē,

Ngāue pē he ngoue,

Fai ʻaho mo e pō.

ʻOku vave ʻa e mate,

ʻOua ʻe mālōlō.

2. ʻOua maumau taimi,

ʻOua ʻe nofo noa,

Ngāue pē he ʻEiki,

ʻE ʻikai taʻeaonga,

Ka hoko pē ʻa e taimi,

ʻE maʻu pē ʻa e fua,

Ka haʻu pē ʻa e ʻEiki,

Toe tuʻu fiefia.

3. ʻE ʻikai tuʻutāmaki,

ʻE he faʻa ngāué,

Ka hoko hā mamahi,

Taʻe hā palōmesi.

4. Ko e fē nai ha poto,

Talu pē ʻa e taimi,

Ke puke pē moʻuí ni,

Ke lau ʻitāniti.

Kuo pau mei he ʻEiki,

ʻE ʻikai toe toloi,

Ha kiʻi mōmēniti.

ʻIkai ko e ʻapi ē,

ʻOku pau ke veteki,

Ko e tokangaʻi maʻu,

ʻA e monūʻiá,

ʻA e nofo taʻengata,

He kolo ʻo e ʻOtua.
