E ko mākou Makua i loko o ka lani,
E ho'āno 'ia Kou inoa,
E hiki mai Kou aupuni,
E mālama 'ia Kou makemake ma ka honua nei.

E hā'awi mai iā mākou i kēia la
I 'ai nā mākou no nēia lā.
E kala mai ho'i iā mākou i kā mākou lawehala 'ana

[No ka mea, Nou ke aupuni, a me ka mana, a me ka ho'onani 'ia, a mau loa aku]
