A`oia - John K. Almeida
A`oia a e lilo ana `oe ia`u, ahahana
Onaona kô maka i `ane`i e ka ipo
Wahine u`i
He u`i i`o nô ka wahine leo hone
He manu leo le`a `ia o ke kuahiwi
Na`u `oe, na`u no e lei ha`aheo

Li`a wale aku nô ka mana`o la i laila
Ho`ohihi
Ua noa kô nui kino na`u ho`okahi wale nô
Me `oe a`u pumehana kâua
Me a`u `oe `olu nei nei pu`uwai
Aia lâ lilo ana lilo `oe ia`u

That's it, I am going to win you, oh, oh
Your pretty eyes are attracted hither
O lovely dear
You are pretty indeed and your voice is so sweet
Like a sweet-voiced bird of the mountain
You are mine, mine to cherish with pride

For my thoughts are drawn there to you,
My fancy taken
You are all mine and mine alone
With you I find the warmth of love
Having you with me soothes my heart
There now, you are won, won by me
