• Lyrics

  Aia i ka uka o Piʻihonua
  Ke kīhāpai pua ulumāhiehie
  I laila au lā ʻike i ka nani
  O nā pua ʻala a he nui wale

  Hoʻohihi nā manu o ke kuahiwi
  Nā ʻiʻiwi maka pōlena
  I ka ʻono i ka wai o nā pua
  O Moanikeʻala i ka uluwehiwehi

  Mahalo iā ʻoe e ka hoa aloha
  I ka hoʻokipa e nā malihini
  Eia ko lei poina ʻole
  ʻO Leimakani, Leionaona

  Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana
  Moanikeʻala i ka uluwehiwehi
  Hea aku mākou e ō mai ʻoe
  Kimo o ka uka ʻiuʻiu he inoa
