English original Tok Pisin translation

I
O arise all you sons of this land,
Let us sing of our joy to be free,
Praising God and rejoicing to be
Papua New Guinea!

Shout our name from the mountains to seas
Papua New Guinea;
Let us raise our voices and proclaim
Papua New Guinea!

II
Now give thanks to the good Lord above
For His kindness, His wisdom and love
For this land of our fathers so free,
Papua New Guinea!

Shout again for the whole world to hear
Papua New Guinea;
We're independent and we're free
Papua New Guinea!

I
O arais, ol yu pipel bilong dispela lan,
Larim singsing bilong amamas malolo bilong milpela,
Lotu God na mekim tu bilong
Papua Niugini!

Kolim neim bilong mipela bilong maunten na solwara
Papua Niugini;
Larim rais nek bilong mipela na tok
Papua Niugini!

II
Nau yumipela tenkim gutpela Lod antap
Long kainis, wisdom na laikim bilong em
Long dispela lan bilong yumipela papas so malolo,
Papua Niugini.

Tok strong gen long graun tu harim,
Papua Niugini;
Yumi independan na yumi malolo
Papua Niugini.
