Kaloaloa - John Piʻilani Watkins
Kaulana mai nei o Kaloaloa lā, ʻeā, ʻeā
O puʻu kaimana pua kalaunu lā, ʻeā, ʻeā

Ke kani kapalulu kahi mokulele lā, ʻeā, ʻeā
O kuʻu aloha aʻe kēia lā, ʻeā, ʻeā

Hoʻokipa ʻia mai ke aloha lā, ʻeā, ʻeā
Me pua kalaunu kau i ka `iu lā, ʻeā, ʻeā

Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana lā, ʻeā, ʻeā
O puʻu kaimana e hulali nei lā, ʻeā, ʻeā

 Famous is Kaloaloa
Diamonds, crown flowers

The roaring sound where the airplane is
My love approaches

Welcome is my love
With crown flowers held in highest regard

Tell the refrain
Diamonds sparkling there
