- Na ka pua kenikeni koʻu hoʻohihi
- Ke ʻala hoʻoheno i kuʻu poli
- Onaona i ka ihu ke honi aku
- A ke kēhau aʻe hali mai nei
- Na wai e ʻole koʻu hoʻohihi
- Ke ʻala huʻihuʻi o ia pua
- E kui nō au a lawa
- I lei hoʻoheno no kuʻu kino
- Haʻina ʻia mai ka puana
- Na ka pua kenikeni koʻu hoʻohihi
- Ke ʻala hoʻoheno i kuʻu poli
- The pua kenikeni is what
enchants me
- The cherished fragrance at my heart
- Softly fragrant to inhale
- That which the dewdrops bear
- Who would not share my enchantment
- The thrilling perfume of that blossom
- I will string enough to make
- A cherished lei for my person
- Tell the refrain
- The pua kenikeni is what enchants me
- The cherished fragrance at my heart
