E Kānehoalani ē,
E hō mai i ko mālamalama
I ao maila ʻo Wailuku
I ka malu ʻōhū o Kāne
Hui:
Eō, e ka hū, e hui like mai
A pualu i ka pono o nā wai
E hālana aʻe ka manaʻo
I ke au o kēia mua aku
E ka makani Hoʻolua,
Hoʻolale i ke Kiliʻoʻopu
ʻO ka ua noenoe o nā pali
Hāʻale i ka wai o Waiheʻe
E nā wailele hune o Waiehu,
Wai hiwahiwa i ke alo pali,
Wai aukahi, wai lāhui
Kahe i ka poli o Poliʻala
E nā pōkiʻi inu wai ʻawaʻawa
E ka poʻe i aloha i ka ʻāina,
Ua hiki Waikapū aʻi Māʻalaea
Ua ea, a he māealani
