Lyrics
Aloha nō paha ʻoe e ka pua o ka hēʻī
Ke ʻī aʻe nei nō au, ʻo ka ʻoi o Kapālama
Mālama ʻia ko kino o lilo mai i ʻaneʻi
I ʻaneʻi nō māua i ka malu o ke kukui
Hui:
Sweet rosebud o ka uka onaona
Pulupē i ka hunahuna wai
I noho a kamaʻāina
Ka makani ʻŌlauniu
Aloha nō paha ʻoe, e ke anu o Waimea
E ka ua Kīpuʻupuʻu
Lei kōkō ʻula i ke pili
Hāliʻi maila i luna welelau o ke kuahiwi
Kuahiwi kū kilakila
Māpu ke ʻala me ke onaona
