MAMA i Lani,
Eabu na thatamu.
Ge laga main a iioamu.
Ge tanonama na naoamu i vua elivana i Lani.
Go vuwatea mai i nene na vana ge thadanana i nene.
Go nai vatau na molai palumami elivana i ami-ami nai vatau na molai paluda.
Gose lugataini ami tana tovotovo,
go ade ami vatau tana kilboa.
Namoa na vule, mana nanama,
mana lada, ge lae me lae. Amen.
