Lyrics
He nani, he beauty maoli nō
Oh, lovely sunrise HaleakalāKuahiwi nani a he kū kilakila
Kehakeha i ka maka lā o ka ʻōpuaKaulana ko inoa puni ka honua
Mākaʻikaʻi ʻia e nā malihiniMoani ke ʻala ma ka hikina
No ka pua roselani lei onaonaKaulana nā hono a Piʻilani
Hoʻoheno pū me nā wai ʻehāPuana he beauty maoli nō
Oh, lovely sunrise HaleakalāSource: Song Contest 2009 program
