Lyrics

Ma kuʻu poli mai ʻoe
E kuʻu ipo aloha
He ʻala onaona kou
No ke ano ahiahi
Mamuli aʻo ko leo
Ua malu nēia kino
He kino palupalu kou
I ka hana a ke aloha
Ua laʻi nō hoʻi au
I ka hanu o ka ipo
E hoʻoipoipo nei
Nanea pū kāua
Haʻina mai ka puana
E kuʻu ipo aloha
He ʻala onaona kou
No ke ano ahiahi
