17 Te u sio kiate ia, kae ʻikai he taimí ni;

Te u sio kiate ia, kae ʻikai vavé ni.

ʻE haʻu ha fetuʻu+ meia Sēkope,

Pea ʻe ʻalu hake ha sēpita+ mei ʻIsileli.+

Pea te ne mātuʻaki maumauʻi ʻa e laʻe ʻo Mōapé*+

Pea mo e ngeʻesi-ʻulu ʻo e ngaahi foha faifakaʻauhá kotoa.

 2 Ko ia te u tuku atu ha afi ki Mōape,

Pea te ne keina ʻa e ngaahi taua fakakolotau ʻo Kiliotí;+

ʻE mate ʻa Mōape ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ha fuʻu longoaʻa,

Mo ha kaila ʻo e tau, mo e ongo mai ʻa ha ngaahi meʻaifi+ ki he faitau.
