Lyrics
Pehea ho‘i au i tāu ‘ite mai lā
‘Ite mai lā ‘eā, ‘eā, ‘eā
Ma ‘ane‘i, ma ‘ane‘i mai ‘oe
Pumehana, pumehana tāua
Ma ‘ane‘i mai ‘oe pumehana
A pumehana ho‘i tāua ‘eā ‘eā ‘eā
A i ‘ike ‘oe ia mea he aloha lā
Taomi mālie, taomi mālie
Taomi mālie ‘oe ‘eā ‘eā ‘eā
Aia nō me ‘oe ka ‘ano‘i pau ‘ole
A nei pu‘uwai e ‘oni mau nei
E ‘oni mau nei, ‘eā ‘eā ‘eā
