Pāʻauʻau Hula
Aia i ka iʻa ha mau leo
Ka ʻiʻini, ka haliʻa, ka haʻupu ʻana ka
Haʻupu aʻe ana ka manaʻo e ʻike
E ʻike i ka nani o Pāʻauʻau o, Pāʻauʻau
E ʻauʻau ia wai kamahaʻo
Ia wai hoʻoheno a ka malihini
Malihini hoʻi kuʻu ʻike ia ʻoe
Kamaʻāina no naʻe i ke aloha
ʻO mai ka wahine nona ka lei
Kūliaikanuʻu e ō mai
A Pāʻauʻau au ʻike i ka nani
Ka waiho kāhela mai i ka laʻi
I laila hoʻola`i ai nā manu la
Mikiʻala i ka nani o nā pua
He ua no ʻoe ua ona ia
He lei ʻāʻî no ke kūpuna
Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana
Kūlia ka wahine noho i ke kapu
