ORASAUN SANTU FRANCISCO ASSISI NIAN
Na’i, halo ha’u sai instrumentu ba Ita-Boot nia dame.
Wainhira iha laran-hirus, husik ha’u kari domin;
wainhira iha kanek, husik ha’u hato’o perdaun;
wainhira iha laran rua-rua, husik ha’u hato’o fiar;
wainhira iha dezesperu, husik ha’u hato’o esperansa;
wainhira iha nakukun, husik ha’u hato’o naroman;
no wainhira iha laran-susar, husik ha’u hato’o laran-haksolok.
O, Mestre Divinu, husu-boot katak ha’u sei la buka buat barak atu hetan konsola duke fó konsola;
hetan komprensaun duké iha komprensaun;
hetan domin duké hadomi.
Tanba liuhosi fó de’it mak ita sei simu;
liuhosi fó perdaun mak ita sei hetan perdaun;
no liuhosi mate mak ita sei moris hikas ba moris rohan-laek. Amen

PRAYER OF SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen
