A low power level shifter circuit for integrated circuits, and a design structure on which the subject circuit resides are provided. The low power level shifter circuit includes an input inverter operating in a domain of a first voltage supply. The input inverter receives an input signal and provides a first inverted signal. An output inverter operating in a domain of a second voltage supply coupled to the input inverter and provides an output signal having a voltage level corresponding to the second voltage supply and a logic value corresponding to the input signal. The second voltage supply is higher than the first voltage supply. A leakage current control circuit includes a finisher transistor connected between the second voltage supply and the input to the output inverter and a path control transistor control a path between the first voltage supply and the input inverter.
