Lyrics
Aloha Keauhou i ke kua uli
‘Āina uluwehi i ka ua noe
He kumu wai ola e līhau nei
A kahe mau mai uka a ke kai
Kūmaka ka ‘ikena iā Kīlauea
Ka waiho kāhela i ka mālie
Waihona la‘ahia i ka mehameha
I ka meheu ‘ole iho lā e pono ai
I ala mai ke ao i ka ‘elepaio
‘Elele ha‘ilono o ka mālānai
Mālama ē ka ‘io kia‘i o ka lā
O hala auane‘i ka Pu‘ulena
I ‘āina nō ka ‘āina i ke ali‘i
E ola nō ka ‘āina i ke Akua
E ola Keauhou a e ulu mau
‘Āina uluwehi i ka ua noe
