Nani wale kuʻu ʻike `ana i ka nani
O ke aloha e, e hoʻoipoipo nei

Ilihia wale au i kou leo lā
I ka pane ʻana mai, pehea au

I laila kuʻu ʻupu ke kuʻu haliʻa ana
E hoʻi kaua aʻe pili

Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana
ʻO ʻoe e kuʻu lei pili hemo ʻole



So beautiful in my sight
My love, let us make love

Your voice excites me
Asking, how am I

There is my desire
We must be together

Tell the refrain
Of you, my love, always close
