Lyrics
Hoʻomanaʻo aʻela ala wau
I kuʻu wā liʻiliʻi
Kapa ʻia mai au he hūpēkole
A nui aʻe he wahine uʻi
Hānai ʻia au a nui puʻipuʻi
I ka nui miki ʻai a Tūtū
ʻAi a māʻana, inu a kena
Ke aloha ia o nā kūpuna
A nui aʻela ala wau
Mai hea hōʻea ana ʻo iala
I ka milimili me kahi sweet oil
A lilo ana au iā iala
Haʻina ʻia mai ka puana
Hoʻomanaʻo aʻela au i kuʻu wā liʻiliʻi
Kapa ʻia mai au he hūpēkole
A nui aʻe he wahine uʻi
