Lyrics

E hoʻi i ka nani i Mokuʻula lā
I ka uka wale o Waineʻe lā ē

Kauaʻula mai ko uka lā
Kaʻalani mai ko ke kai lā ē

Huli aku ke alo i Lanaʻi lā
Ma ke kōwā iho o Molokaʻi lā

Ka malu o ka puʻu o Hāʻupu lā
Kēlā puʻu ʻoniʻoni ʻoi kelakela lā ē

I ka lehua o Kāʻana ke aloha lā ē
I ka luna wale o Kalae lā e

ʻO Makakeua ka makani lā
I ke kai wale o Mikimiki lā ē

Hāʻina ka inoa i ka laʻi lā
​No Mānoanoa he inoa lā ē
