  Maika‘i Waimea i ka uka
  Kilakila kelakela i ka la‘i
  Nā pu‘u kinikini lehulehu
  ‘Olu‘olu ka mana‘o ke ‘ike

  Hui:
  Ke kokolo e mai ke anu
  Hu‘ihu‘i konikoni i ka ‘ili
  ‘Ōlala i ka lā a me ke ahi
  Pumehana nēia ‘āina

  Waimea i ka ua o ka Pa‘ahoa
  Kāhiko i ka luna o Ka‘ala
  Kuahiwi ‘alo anu o Waimea
  ‘Ohu‘ohu i ke oho o ka palai

  Ka waiho la‘i mai o Pu‘ukapu
  Me ka wai koe lihilihi o Waihaka
  I ka ne‘e a ka ua Kīpu‘upu‘u
  Me ka hau‘oki a‘o ka nahele
