Hiva 222

Tauhi Ho Matá he Palé!

(2 Kolinito 4:18)

1. ʻI he toe ʻā ʻa e kuí

Pea fanongo e tulí,

Fisiki mai toafá,

Fonu vai e pakukā,

Topuna vave e heké,

ʻIkai ha māvae he maté

—Te ke sio ai ʻo ka ke

Tauhi ho matá he palé.

2. ʻI he toe lea e noá,

Talavou e motuʻá,

Mahutafea e fonuá,

Taʻengata hono fuá,

Fonu hiva e fānaú,

Melino ngāhi feituʻú,

Sio toetuʻu ʻo ka ke

Tauhi ho matá he palé.

3. Taha lami mo ulofí,

Pulu mo pea na lafí,

Taki nautolu kotoa

Mo ui ʻe ha kiʻi tama.

Mole ʻa e loʻimatá,

ʻOsi e faingataʻá,

Mamata ai ʻo ka ke

Tauhi ho matá he palé.
