ʻAuhea wale ʻoe
Mahina ʻo Hoku
Hōʻike aʻe ʻoe
I kou nani
Ua laʻi nā kai
Mehameha nā pali
ʻO ʻoe a ʻo wau
E hoʻoipoipo nei
E moani ke ʻala
O ka pua hīnano
E ʻapo mai ʻoe
Me kou aloha
Haʻina kou inoa
Mahina ʻo Hoku
Ke noho nani maila
Mauna lani kiʻekiʻe | Where are you
Full moon of the night
Reveal your
Beauty
The seas are calm
The cliffs are lonely
But you and I
Are making love
How fragrant
Is the hīnano blossom
That captivates you
My love
Tell of your name
Full moon of the night
There beauty sits high
Above the heavenly
mountain
