About the Song
Lyrics

Ho‘oheno nei no ku‘u ipo aloha ē
No ku‘u aloha, ku‘u milimili

A‘u e pūlama mau nei (‘ae)
Mea ho‘ohau‘oli pu‘uwai

A he waiwai nui ke aloha (aloha)
A loko a‘e hi‘ipoi nei

Ua hiki, ua lana ka mana‘o (ua kō)
A eia ‘o ia ala i ku‘u poli

‘Ōiwi nani kū kilakila (u‘i nō)
Kehakeha i ka ‘ike a ka maka

Makamaka hale kipa ‘oe no‘u (mai)
‘Oiai ka manawa kūpono

Ua pono, ua kō ka ‘i‘ini (maika‘i)
‘O ko‘u aloha nō iā ‘oe

Hea aku nō au ō mai ‘oe (eō)
‘O ka nani o nā pua kou inoa
