Lyrics
Ka huliau ʻana, ʻeā
O ka waʻa kaulua, ʻeā
Hoʻokele ʻia ma ka moana, ʻeā
O ka Pākīpika, ʻeā
Ka hōʻeu ʻana, ʻeā
I piha ai kēia ʻāina, ʻeā
E hoʻāla hou i ka waʻa kaulua lā
O Hawaiʻi kahiko, ʻeā
He kīpaipai i ka manaʻo, ʻeā
O ka Hui Huakaʻi Polenisia
E hana he waʻa kaulua lā
Hui ʻia nā hoe waʻa maʻa lā, ʻeā
E ka Hui Huakaʻi, ʻeā
E hoʻokele hou wiwo ʻole
I ke ala kahiko i Tahiti loa lā
Hānau ʻia ka waʻa laha ʻole lā
I kapa ʻia ʻo Hōkūleʻa lā
