| Ho`oheno ku`uipo Ku`u pua ku`u lei aloha I haku i`a me ka maile O ku`u pua mai Ka u`i mau `oe O ka punawai A`e pua i mohala Me ke `ala onaona Onaona ku`u maka I ka na`i `oe i`a pua O ko`u leo nahenahe Ke aloha e maliu mai Ê ô ê mai ku`ulani Ku`u pua ku`u lei aloha No ka welina i haku i`a Me ke aloha ku`u pu`uwai |
Cherished sweetheart My flower, my lei of love Intermingled with maile Come, my flower Your unceasing beauty Like the bubbling spring Best of the blooming flowers Soft and sweetly scented My gentle eyes alluring Trying to obtain your love My soft voice Begs, listen to me, my love Answer my heavenly one My flower, my lei of love This greeting of love intermingled with The love of my heart |
