1. Kakala ‘o Tonga teu luva atu               1. Sweet-scent flowers of Tonga I yield to you

Kulukona langakali heilala ngangatu         Fragrant kulukona, langakali, and heilala

Motelolo moe pua teu toe ‘oatu                 And motelolo and pua too, I shall add

Ko si‘o kakala ‘o ka ke folau                      As your sweet-smelling garland for voyaging

2. ‘Ikai ‘aupito teu ‘ilo ‘e au                             2. Very little do I really know

‘Oku langa pehē ‘ae ‘ofa manatu                   That memories of love do so ache

Vaivai ‘ae sino moe ‘atamai                           Weakening both body and mind

Koe mate tene lava ke toe tatali                    That even death can wait

Tau: Teu ‘ofa atu teu ‘ofa pē                           Chorus: I love you aye I really do

Teu ‘ofa ke a‘u kihe mate                                I love you ‘til death do us part

‘E lelei ‘eku mate ‘aku he lose                        Dying for the rose, a greater good

He ‘ete mo‘ui mamahi pehē                            Than living a life of misery

Koe ki‘i fakamatala moe huluhulu nounou.
