Noho nani iluna ke ao ʻōpua
Kapu ʻihi kapu i Kilohana
Haiamū ihola ka lehua
I nā manu

Hui:
Kulikuli au iā ʻoe manu kapalulu
Hana wale mai nō iaʻu
He aha hoʻi ʻoe i koʻu manaʻo
ʻAe nō hoʻi

ʻŌlelo ana ʻoe i ko haʻi keʻe
Eia iho nō me ʻoe
Nā ʻaumakua peʻe i ka poli
I aʻo lūʻau ʻia

Kiʻina kahuna i Hawaiʻi
Kūkulu nā haʻilona
Kuhikuhi ke ola iā Kapo
ʻO ia nō hoʻi

Noho iho nō ʻoe ʻai pono iho
I kou pōmaikaʻi nui
ʻIke ʻia ai he ulakolako
ʻO ia nō hoʻi
