[ Yele maoulo! ]
The conch shells are sounding,
The roosters haven’t crowed yet,
The sun hasn’t risen yet,
The workers are on their feet!
Ranpono has begun!
Laborers, let’s put our hands together,
Let’s join together,
The work has begun!
Little by little, the bird makes its nest.
My brothers, my sisters,
Join together, let’s move forward!
Heads together, in harmony,
We will come to see the navel of an ant.
With perseverance, we will see the navel of an ant.
The load that you bear on your head falls on your shoulders.
Little by little, the bird makes its nets.
[ Yele maoulo! ]
Wasting time is not part of the game.
We must work today to harvest tomorrow.
Work is over!
The sun is setting,
The workers are dismissed,
A job well done.
Ranpono brings life.

TEXT:
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
I need Thy presence every passing hour.
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
Amen.
