Tuvalu mo te Atua

Ko te Fakavae sili,
Ko te alu Foki tena,
O te manuia katoa;
Loto lasi o fai,
Tou malo saoloto;
Fusi ake katoa
Ki te loto alofa;
Kae amo fakatasi
Ate atu fenua.
"Tuvalu mo te Atua"
Ki te se gata mai!


Tuku atu tau pulega
Ki te pule mai luga,
Kilo tonu ki ou mua
Me ko ia e tautai.
"Pule tasi mo ia"
Ki te se gata mai,
Ko tena mana
Ko tou malosi tena.
Pati lima kae kalaga
Ulufonu ki te tupu.
"Tuvalu ko tu saoloto"
Ki te se gata mai!

"Tuvalu Almighty"
Are the words we cherish most,
For as a people or as a leader,
From Tuvalu we all share;
The knowledge that God
reigns forever in heaven above;
And that we
are united in His love in this land ;
We build on a solid foundation
when we trust in God's great law.
“Tuvalu Almighty”
be our song forever!

Let us entrust our lives to
the King we pray to,
With our eyes fixed on him,
He will show us the way.
“May we reign with Him in honor”
Be our song forever.
Because his almighty power
is our strength from coast to coast.
Calls out loud in exultation
To the King whom we honor.
"Tuvalu Free and One"
Be our song forever!
