Kiribati lyrics
- Teirake kaini Kiribati, Anene ma te kakatonga,
- Tauraoi nakon te mwioko, Ma ni buokia aomata.
- Tauaninne n te raoiroi, Tangiria aomata nako.
- Tauaninne n te raoiroi, Tangiria aomata.
- Reken te kabaia ma te rau Ibuakoia kaain abara,
- Bon reken te nano ae banin Ma te i-tangitangiri naba.
- Ma ni wakina te kab'aia, Ma n neboa i eta abara.
- Ma ni wakina te kab'aia, Ma n neboa abara.
- Ti butiko ngkoe Atuara Kawakinira ao kairira,
- Nakon taai aika i maira, Buokira ni baim ae akoi.
- Kakabaia ara Tautaeka Ma ake a makuri iai.
- Kakabaia ara Tautaeka Ma aomata ni bane.
