ʻOku ai ʻi Māmani

Fofonga fiefia

1. ʻOku ai ʻi māmaní
ʻa e siasi moʻoní,
ʻA ia naʻe hāʻele mai mo Sīsū,
Kuo toe ʻomí ni
ki he ʻOtu motu ní
Tau hiva fakamālō kia Sīsū.

[Chorus]
Vakai ki he folofola
Hā mei he Tohi Tapú,
Tala ʻe Taniela
Ha fuʻu puleʻangá
ʻE fokotuʻu pea tuʻu maʻú.

2. Ne tā mei he moʻungá
Taʻe kau ai ha nimá,
Pea ʻe hangahanga teka atú,
Ke ʻosi mo ikuna
ʻa e ngaahi meʻa halá,
Hiva fakafetaʻi kia Sīsū.

[Chorus]
Vakai ki he folofola
Hā mei he Tohi Tapú,
Tala ʻe Taniela
Ha fuʻu puleʻangá
ʻE fokotuʻu pea tuʻu maʻú.

3. Fakahā ʻe Sihová
Ke ai ha palōfitá,
Ke taki totonu ʻa kitautolú,
ʻA e kau ʻapositoló
mo e kau ʻevangeliō,
Tau hiva hōsaná kia Sīsū.

[Chorus]
Vakai ki he folofola
Hā mei he Tohi Tapú,
Tala ʻe Taniela
Ha fuʻu puleʻangá
ʻE fokotuʻu pea tuʻu maʻú.

4. Pea nau tuʻi ʻaki
ʻa e Tuʻi māfimafí,
Tuku ʻa e mahafu ka tau hū atú,
Ki Hono puleʻangá
ʻo maʻu ha tofiʻá,
Hiva haleluʻiá kia Sīsū.

[Chorus]
Vakai ki he folofola
Hā mei he Tohi Tapú,
Tala ʻe Taniela
Ha fuʻu puleʻangá
ʻE fokotuʻu pea tuʻu maʻú.
