Lyrics

Aloha ku‘u moku ‘o Kaho‘olawe
Mai kinohi kou inoa ‘o Kanaloa
Kohemālamalama laukanaka ‘ole
Hiki mai nā pua e ho‘omalu mai

Alu like kākou, lāhui Hawai‘i
Mai ka lā hiki mai i ka lā kau a‘e
Kūpa‘a a hahai, hō‘ikaika nā kānaka
Kau li‘i mākou, nui ke aloha no ka ‘āina

Hanohano nā pua o Hawai‘i nei
No ke kaua kauholo me ke aupuni
Pa‘apū ka mana‘o no ka pono o ka ‘āina
I mua nā pua, lanakila Kaho‘olawe
