Sipaita Si’i Si’i (Incy Wincy Spider)
Sipaita si’isi’i kaka he fakatali
Tō ‘ae ‘uha pea nē tafia ai
Ulo ‘ae la’ā mōmoa ‘ae fakatali
Pea toe kaka leva ‘ae ki’i sipaita
Incy wincy spider climbed up the water spout - Sipaita si’i si’i kaka he fakatali
Down came the rain and washed poor Incy out - Tō ‘ae ‘uha pea nē tafia ai
Out came the sunshine and dried up all the rain - Ulo ‘ae la’ā mōmoa ‘ae fakatali
And Incy wincy spider climbed up the spout again - Pea toe kaka leva ‘ae ki’i sipaita
