Kipa i ka `olu o Pu`uwa`awa`a
E hi`i `ia mai la e Hualälai
Ia home i puia me ke aloha
Pihanakalani wehi i ka pua
Hui:
`O ka `olu`olu no me ka nahenahe
Ke kuini maoli pua o ka home
Keali`iheleloa `oe Kina`u
Ke ali`i wahine o Pu`u Wa`awa`a
Pumehana ke aloha `o Lope Haina
Keiki o ka `äina ha`aheo
Hanahono Hawai`i ua ki`eki`e
Kilohana nä kuahiwi `ekolu
Ke pä mai nei e ka Mumuku
Ka makani o lau niu o Kekaha
Kähea mai Kiholo i ka la`i
`Au`au i ke kai ko nahenahe
