A tatou mafaufau i tala fa’asolopito o Samoa, e iai nai tala faanoanoa. Tala o puapuaga ma faigata. Sau ia! (If we think back on the history of Samoa, there are many stories of sadness. Stories of pain and haroship. Lets go!)

Tala o tagata fia iloa ma mea ofoofogia na latou faia (A story of people with greed and the horrific things they caused)

Le tiga ma faigata na o'o ai le atunu’u o samoa (the pain and agony that Samoa experienced)

A o le mana ma le alofa (x 3) (But with the courage and love for their country) (x 3)

E le mafai ai ona faia’ina (They are unconquerable)

O nu’u tetele na omai e tau. Tau ma tama, fafine ma nai fanau (The worlds strongest countries came to battle and conquer the men, women and children)

O pomu tetele ma pulufana na feoti ai le tele o samoa (Huge bombs and bullets killed countless Samoans)

A o le mana ma le alofa (x 3) (But with the courage and love for their country) (x 3)

E le mafai ai ona faia’ina (They are unconquerable)

Sau! E tau! Le fia ma fia selau (Come and fight! The many hundreds)

Sau! E tau! Olaga mai'mau (Come and fight! Of wasted lives)

Sau! E tau! Fafine ma nai fanau (Come and fight! The women and children)

Sau! E tau! Le toto ua masa’a (Come and fight! Their blood spilt)

Sau! E tau! Le fia ma fia selau (Come and fight! The many hundreds)

Sau! E tau! Olaga mai’mau (Come and fight! Of wasted lives)

Sau! E tau! Fafine ma nai fanau (Come and fight! The women and children)

Sau! E tau! Samoa mo Samoa! (Come and fight! Samoa for Samoa!)

Aiga ma nu’u ua vaevaeina ona o nei tagata ese (Families and villagers turn against each other due to these foreign countries)

O malumalu ma fale ua tanumia e le afi (Churches and houses engulfed by flames)

Leai se auala e puipui ai latou mai au'upega faigata o le fili (No way to defend themselves from these foreign weapons)

O le loto o le samoa e le solomuli (the heart of a samoan never backs down)

Samoa mo Samoa! (x 3) (Samoa for Samoa!) (x 3)

Ua fa’ato’ilaloina ae e te le fiu (You foreigners were defeated but you wouldn't give in)

Le tou fiapule i le matou atunu’u (Your determination to rule our country)

Le po uliuli na fafau ai tonu e fetaua’i po’o ai e pule (The blackened night all 3 foreign countries assembled to create a new plan to see who would rule us)

Ua potopoto aiga ma nu’u i le le mautonu ae e loto tetele (Our families and villagers gathered together confused but fearless)

Ua va’ai, va’ai atu i tai ua atagia le masina i le malu o le sami (As we gaze cautiously out into the ocean, the moon reflects off the calm sway of the sea)

Ona o le alofa o le tatou matai le lagi, ua agi malosi lea o le matagi, ma ua tafefea va’a i le sou o le sami (Because of the love of our messiah in heaven, the calm seas transformed to a raging storm. The foreigners battleships were destroyed at sea)

Ua fa’atumulia le faga i va’atau tetele (The harbour was filled with big battleships)

O latou taupulega o le a taunu’u (Their conquering about to commence)

Ae o le fa’atuatua o le tatou talita (But with our faith in our shield)

E pei ona fa’aalia i le afa. Sou! Sou! (The storm revelled its power. Rage! Rage!)
