448 ‘E Laumālie, hifo mai

‘E Laumālie, hifo mai
Ki homau fale ni:
Hā‘ele mo ho māfimafí,
‘A e ivi ho‘o kelesi.

Ha‘u ko e afi! Fakama‘a
‘A homau loto ni;
Keina kotoá ‘a e ngaoha‘á
‘O ‘emau ngāhi kovi

Ha‘u ko e lupe! ‘ō‘ōfakí
Hó Siá si ‘i lalo ni;
Poupou mo fakana‘a ki ai,
Tauhi mo taukapo‘í.

Tō hifo hangē ha hahau
Ki homau ‘atamai!
Ngaohi ke kelekele taaú
‘A e unga maka ni.

Tō hifo ko e fu‘u matangí!
Hangē ko Penitekosí,
‘O ‘omi ha ‘elelo afí
Ke mau fa‘á lea mālohi

‘E Laumālie, tali mai
‘A e lotu ‘oku ‘atú.
Hā‘ele mo ho māfimafí,
Ha‘u, Laumālie, ha‘u!
