Niʻihau:
Kaulana nō ‘oe nani Ni‘ihau
Pūpū lei nani o ka ‘āina
He nani hiehie ‘oi kelakela
Ka lei ‘ā‘ī o Kahelelani
Hō mai kou aloha pili me a‘u
Ke aloha pumehana no Ni‘ihau
Eō e Ni‘ihau i kou inoa
Pu‘uwai ‘olu‘olu me ke aloha
Ha‘ina ‘ia mai ana ka puana
Pūpū lei nani o ka ‘āina
Kuʻu Lei Pūpū:
Aloha a‘e ana i ku‘u lei pūpu
E kaulana nei a i nā malihini
He lei momi ‘oe na nā kūpuna
A he lei ‘ā‘ī na o‘u mau mākua
Ua hana ‘ia ‘oe me ka no‘eau
Nā u‘i like ‘ole o Kahelelani
He waiwai ‘oe ke loa‘a mai
He pono kaulike no ka lehulehu
Hō‘ike a‘e ‘oe a i kou nani
Ka mālamalama a puni ka honua
‘O ka Makua Lani ko‘u alaka‘i
Nāna e kia‘i me ke aloha
Ha‘ina ‘ia mai ana ka puana
Ku‘u lei pūpū poina ‘ole
Ha‘ina hou ‘ia mai ana ka puana
Ku‘u lei pūpū e kaulana nei
