E kuʻu lani e kuʻu beauty My beloved one Ka liʻa ʻoe a ka manaʻo Ka ʻanoʻi a ka puʻuwai Ohaoha wale nā hiʻohiʻona O kuʻu ipo Linohau, minoʻaka ʻoluʻolu He gorgeous mai hoʻi kau Nou ka ʻiʻini me ke ohohia E lady love ʻO ka heke ʻoe o nā pua ʻO ka uʻi o ke kaona Onaona ko maka e ka ipo E kuʻu ever sweet ʻO ka nani kau ʻoe lā i ka wēkiu ʻO kou helu ia Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana lā He mele no kuʻu lei Ke ʻala onaona tuberose Moani o ke awakea |
