- Ku`u `ohu lei änuenue
- Ko`iaweawe nei i ke pili
- `O ka paia ka makani Kiu
- Ka `iniki `ana iho welawela
-
- Hui:
- Ho`i mai käua e pili
- My sweet sweeting
- `A`ohe pili hemo `ole i ke kau
- My sweet sweeting
|
- My adornment, a rainbow
lei
- Lies spreading over the pili
grass
- When lifted by the Kiu
wind
- One feels a sharp pinch
-
- Chorus:
- Come let us be together
- My sweet sweeting
- Never more to be separated
through the seasons
- My sweet sweeting
