Beauty of Kowali

Famous loving land
Wai`ânapanapa
The lei that has passed
With bonding love to Hanoma`ele

You're the beautiful mountain
Ko`olauloa
The beauty is seen
Of Pueokahi

The whispering sea
Of Waikôloa
Directly in front of
The hill of Ka`uiki

There in the calm
Of Hâmoa
The elders of the land
Of Kaluanui

Let my song be told
Of Hâna
The white rain
The beauty of Kowali
