Hoʻo komo i kau apo aʻo Mahukona
I ka nuku kaulana o ka ʻāina
Ahuwale nā Kuahiwi o Kohala
Ke holo aʻela mai uka a ke kai

Huʻi huʻi kai hona aʻo Waimea
Me ka wai ili ula
Ka ua Kipuʻupuʻu
I ka kuʻi kā ʻolu o Kawaihae
Ke one pua kea i ke kai hāwanawana

Alawa aʻe ua
I ka nani aʻo Maunakea
Pumehana i ka poli kaupu aʻo Maunaloa
E ae ou Huālalai e kuʻu mai la
Na kuahiwi kaulana i ke kapaʻau



Let us go to Mahukona and
Enter this famous land
Mountains of Kohala are in plain view
That run from the uplands to the sea

Water of Waimea is cold
The water burns the skin
The chilly rain Kipuʻupuʻu
The smooth pounding sea of Kawaihae
The white sand and whispering sea

Let us glance up
At the beauty of Mauna Kea
Think of the heat in the heart of Mauna Loa
There is the top of Hualālai
The famous mountains where the gods dwell
