Lyrics

Eia mai au ʻo ka boy lā
Aʻo Laupāhoehoe lā
Kihikihi nā poʻohiwi lā
Pūkonakona ke kino lā
Mea ʻole ka piʻina pali lā
Ka ihona me nā ʻalu lā
I ke kahawai aku au lā
I ka ʻoʻopu nāwao lā
A he hoe waʻa ia hana lā
I ke kai hānupanupa lā
ʻAʻohe aʻu mea hopo lā
I nā ʻale o k e kai lā
Hoʻi mai au i ka hale lā
Nunui nā mikiʻai lā
Kūʻonoʻono ʻo loko lā
Pūkonakona ke kino lā
