Lyrics
Nā Peʻa O Hōkūleʻa:
Huki mai ke kaula
Huki mai ka lau
Pā mai ka makani
Popoho nā pe‘a
Pōhai nā ‘A‘a
Lā i ka wa‘a
Ho‘okele pololei
Iā Hōkūle‘a
Imi nō nā pe‘a lua
E ‘ike ala pono nō
Kū aku i ka ‘āina
Me ka lanakila
Hoʻokele:
E ho‘okele pololei lā ‘eā
Ma ke ‘Alenuihāhā ‘eā ‘eā
E ho‘opa‘a ka hoe uli lā ‘eā
O ka wa‘a kaulua ‘eā ‘eā
‘Elua ki‘i e mālama ai lā ‘eā
Akahele i ka papa ‘eā ‘eā
‘Ikea nā manu lā ‘eā
(Aia) ka ‘āina Kahiki ‘eā ‘eā
Ha‘ina ‘ia mai ka puana lā ‘eā
Ka ho‘okele Hōkūle‘a ‘eā ‘eā
