Iā māua i ho‘ola‘i iho ai
Kaha ‘ana ke ka‘upu i ka la‘i
I laila ke aloha ha‘anipo
Ha‘alipo i ka poli pumehana
 
Kuhi au ua like me ia nei
Ka lalawe ninihi launa ‘ole
‘Akahi a ‘ike i ka noe
Ua loha i ka wai ho‘olana
 
‘O ka hana nipo kau ‘ē ke ānu
Ua maewa poniponi i ka nōe
Poahiahi wale ka ‘ikēna
Ke koni iho koni aku koni a‘ela
 
Hui:
Inā pēlā mai kāu hana
Pākela ‘oi aku ka pipi‘i
Kāu hana ‘olu no‘eau
Kohu like me Wai‘ale‘ale
