Lyrics

Iā ‘oe e ka lā e ‘alohi nei
Ma nā welelau a o ka honua

Hō‘ike a‘e ‘oe a i kou nani
I ka mālamalama ‘oi kelakela

Nāu i noi‘i nowelo aku
Pau nā pali pa‘a i ka ‘ike ‘ia

‘Ike ‘oe i ka nani a o Himela
I ka hene wai‘olu lawe mālie

Mauna i lohia e ke onaona
Kaulana i ka nani me ke ki‘eki‘e

Ki‘eki‘e ‘o Kalani kau mai i luna
Nāna i ‘a‘e nā kapu o Kahiki

Hehihehi kū ana i ka nuku ‘ale
I ke kai hāla‘i lana mālie

Ha‘ina ‘ia mai ana ka puana
E ola ‘o Kalani a mau loa

Hea aku mākou e ō mai ʻoe
ʻO Kalākaua lā he inoa
