Kilakila ke ku aka ʻōpua i ka laʻi
Kehakeha ka ʻōmaka wai o luna
He nani ia nou e ia i ko alo
He akamai noʻeau mikiʻoi
O ke kahua ia la

Hui:
E apo pūlama kaomi malie
E lawe lawe ma ke akahele
He akamai noʻeau mikiʻoi
O ke kahua ia la

He noho na manu no Wehilaulani
Honua paʻa i ka mole o ke ʻaʻaliʻi
Ke ala nanae kuhi i na pali
He akamai noʻeau mikiʻoi
O ke kahua ia la
