Tatalo A Le Ali'i

Prayer of the Lord

Lo matou Tamā e, o i le lagi

Our father (you), who is in the sky1

Ia pa'ia lou Suafa

May your name be sacred

Ia o'o mai lou Mālō

May your rule come to pass

Ia faia lou finagalo

May your will be done

I le lalolagi

On the Earth

E pei ona faia i le lagi.

As it is done in the sky1

Ia ē foaʻi mai ia te i matou

May you bring forth to us (now)

O ā matou mea e ʻai e tatu ma lea aso

Our sustenance day by day

Ia ē faʻamagalo, i ā matou agasala

May you forgive us of our offense

E pei o i matou foʻi ona matou faʻamagalo atu

As we also in return forgive

I ē ua agaleaga mai ia te i matou

To those who offend (to) us

'Aua fo'i ne'i ta'ita'i'ina i matou ile fa'aoso osoga

Also, do not lead us to be impelled by enslavement

A ia elavea'i ia te i matou

(But) that we should be extricated thereof

Auā e ōu le Mana

Because2yours is the divine power

Ma le viiaga e fa'avavau fa'avavau lava

And the kingdom forever and ever

Amene.

Amen.
