Te toea faahohoˈahia i te Sulami

(Sire a Solomona 6:13)

1. ‘Nehenehe oe, e ta ˈu here!

Rave rahi to maitai, te Sulami.

Aita roa e ino ia oe anaˈe.

Oaoa to ˈu, pihai ia oe.’

2. Te parau ra Iesu, te Tiai mamoe,

A rave i te maitai mure ore.

Nafea teie potii paari

Ia pahono atu i to ˈna Fatu.

3. ‘Ore te here mau e hoohia,

Uˈana to ˈna mai to te pohe ra.

Mai te auahi a Iehova moˈa,

Mai te reira ˈtoa, to here ia ˈu.’

4. Tei faatavaihia, eiaha e hema.

Ia vai mâ noa oe no to tane.

Te mau paretenia, a oaoa!

Te eˈa e te re, noaa ia oe.
