He pua ʻoe o ka lani
Me kou ʻala e mapu nei
Moani i ka ʻāina, he wehi nō i ka uka
Makemake iā ʻoe


E pulupē kāua i ka ua
E pāhola mai i kou aloha
Me nā moemoeā e punihei ai
Nohea nō ‘oe


He wehi kō beauty e hoʻoheno ai
E ō mai ʻoe

You are a flower from heaven
With your fragrance that pours sweetly
Wafting the land (your fragrance)
----an adornment for the uplands
How I’m wanting you now

We are drenched in the rain
Spread forth by your love
And with the dreams that I become
---- so easily (helplessly) caught in
How lovely you are

Your beauty is an adornment to be cherished
Call to me...
