Lyrics

Aia i ka la‘i a‘o Haili
Haili a‘e au o kou hiki mai
Hiki mai nō ‘oe ‘olu iho au
Ho‘i pono ke ko‘i‘i kō ‘ia a ka pu‘uwai

Waiwai ka‘a ‘ana, na‘u kou aloha
A ka pu‘uwai a‘e mālama nei
Ma ‘ane‘ine‘i mai nō kāua
Ma kahi o ka mehana e luana a‘e nei

Ka‘a ‘ana i ka pono i ke kaulike
Pono ai ho‘i ‘oe pono kāua
Kāua like nō ka ‘i‘ike iho
I ka hana ho‘oluhi a ka makemake

Makemake nō ko‘u a‘e ‘ikemaka
I ke kahawai kau mai a‘o Kupanihi
Ha‘ina ‘ia mai ana ka puana
O ku‘u momi a‘o ku‘u pu‘uwai
