About the Song
Lyrics

‘Ā ‘oia! A e lilo ana ‘oe ia‘u
Ahahana!
Onaona lā ko maka i ‘ane‘i e ka ipo
Wahine u‘i!

He u‘i ‘i‘o nō ka wahine leo hone
He manu leo le‘a ia o ke kuahiwi
Na‘u ‘oe, na‘u nō e lei ha‘aheo

He li‘a wale aku nō ka mana‘o lā i laila
Ho‘ohihi!
Ua noa ko nui kino na‘u
Ho‘okahi wale nō

Me ‘oe au, pumehana kāua
Me a‘u ‘oe, ‘olu nei pu‘uwai
Aia lā! (Weeha!)
E lilo ana, lilo ‘oe ia‘u
