1. ʻI he māmani mo

ʻOku ai ʻa e paea

Fēfē hono lelei

ʻI he loto ʻofa

[Chorus]
ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá

Hono ngaahi ʻaho,
ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá
Fakafiemālié

Kapau te u feinga

ʻOua te tau foʻi,

Ka ke laka atu

ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá

Hono ngaahi ʻaho,
ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá

Tuʻu ʻi he tui

ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki
Heʻene fānaú.

[Chorus]
ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá
Fakafiemālié
Hono ngaahi ʻaho,
ʻAtu ʻa e ʻofa ki he masivá
Fakafiemālié
hono ngaahi ʻaho.
