The Lord’s Prayer translation from English to Fijian:
Our Father who art in heaven
Tamai keimami mai lomalagi,
Hallowed be your name
me vakarokoroko takin n yacamuni,
Your kingdom come
me yaco mai na nomuni matanitu,
Your will be done on earth,
me vaka sa caka na lomamuni e vuravura
as it is in heaven
me vaka sa yaco tiko mai lomalagi,
give us this day our daily bread
ni solia main a siga oqo na kakana e rauti keimami
forgive us our sins
ni bokoca neimani valavalaca
as we forgive those who sinned against us
Me vaka keimami sa bokoca oti, nodra era sai valavala ca veikeimami
lead us not into temptation
Ni kakua ni kauti keimami kina vere
but deliver us from evil
Ka moni vakabulai keimami mai na ca
For yours in the Kingdom
ni sa nomuni na matanitu
the power and the glory forever
keina jaukauwa keina lagilagi ka tawamudu
Amen
