La’u Samoa, e matalasi
Ua si’osi’omia e le sami
Atu mauga lanu lau ‘ava
Feoa’i fiafia o ou tagata
{ TALI }
La’u Samoa la’u Samoa ea
Le Atua o lou fa’avae e moni lea
Le Ao o lou Malo tali’ilagi
Samoa ea i Malo aufa’atasi
Tu lata oe i le ekueta
E mafanafana fo’i ele vevela
So’o se mea aua le popole
E mamulu mai i le fa’amolemole
Malietoa ua malotau
O nai upu fa’alae’iau
Sema ane so ta taeao
Samoa lo ta va’a ia sao
My Samoa, so expansive (diverse)
Surrounded by the sea
Mountain ranges with lush green leaves
Your people roam joyfully, living their lives
Chorus:
My Samoa, oh my Samoa
God is your foundation, this is true
Your kingdom (governance) is from the heavens
O Samoa, among the United Nations
You stand close to the equator
Warm, yet never unbearably hot
In all things, do not worry
Grace and forgiveness will flow
Malietoa, the strong warrior
Words of encouragement and inspiration
Bind today to tomorrow
Samoa, may our ship sail safely
