  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
