1 Ko e monūʻia fakafiefia ʻoe puleʻanga ʻo Kalaisi. 3 ʻOku maʻu ʻae tokoni ʻe he vaivai; ʻi he lelei mo e tāpuaki ʻoe ongoongolelei.
1 ‌ʻE fiefia ʻae toafa mo e potu lala koeʻuhi ko kinautolu,
pea ʻe fiefia ʻae potu liʻaki, pea fisi ʻo hangē ko e lose.
2 ‌ʻE fisi lahi ia,
pea fiefia ʻi he fiefia mo e hiva:
ʻe foaki ki ai ʻae nāunau ʻo Lepanoni,
ko e lelei ʻo Kameli mo Saloni:
te nau mamata ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova,
mo e lelei lahi ʻo hotau ʻOtua.
3 Mou tokoni ki he nima vaivai,
pea poupou ʻae tui ʻoku fengataliʻaki.
4 Ke ke pehē kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto manavasiʻi, “Ke mou mālohi,
ʻoua ʻe manavahē:
vakai, ʻe hāʻele mai homou ʻOtua mo e tautea,
ʻio, ʻae ʻOtua ʻaki ʻae totongi;
te ne hāʻele mai ʻo fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu.”
5 Pea ʻe toki fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe kui,
pea ʻe fakaava mo e telinga ʻoe tuli.
6 Pea ʻe toki hopohopo ʻae tangata ketu ʻo hangē ko e hainite,
pea ʻe hiva ʻae ʻelelo ʻoe noa:
koeʻuhi ʻe tupu ʻi he toafa ʻae ngaahi vai,
mo e ngaahi vaitafe ʻi he potu lala.
7 Pea ʻe hoko ʻae kelekele mōmoa ko e anovai,
mo e fonua fieinu ko e ngaahi matavai:
pea ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga talākoni, ʻi he potu naʻe taki taha tokoto ai, ʻe tupu ai ʻae mohuku mo e kaho mo e mohuku ʻoe ano.
8 Pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae hala motuʻa, pea mo e hala,
pea ʻe ui ia ‘Ko e Hala ʻoe Māʻoniʻoni;’
ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ai ʻae taʻemaʻa;
ka e tuku ia kiate kinautolu ni:
pea neongo ko e vale ʻae kakai fononga ʻe ʻikai te nau hē ai.
9 ‌ʻE ʻikai ʻi ai ha laione,
pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu hake ki ai ha manu fekai,
ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻi ai;
ka ʻe ʻeveʻeva ai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi:
10 Pea ʻe foki mai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi ʻe Sihova,
ʻo haʻu ki Saione mo e ngaahi hiva,
mo e fiefia taʻengata ʻi honau ʻulu:
te nau maʻu ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka,
pea ʻe puna atu ʻae mamahi mo e toʻe.”
