Aloha Ka Manini - Lot Kauwe
Aloha ka manini me ka pôpolo
He i`a noho ia i ka laupapa

Kala ka nenue `o ka nahawele
Moani ke `alake honi aku

Âhole ia`a piko lihliha
Poi `uala kâohi pu`u

Ha`ina `ia mai ana ka puana
Aloha ka manini me ka pôpolo

Hail to the manini and pôpolo
Fish that live in the reef

Kala and nenue mixed with nahawale seaweed
The scent is inviting

The belly of the ahole fish is rich and fat
With sweet potato poi it slides down the throat

Tell the refrain
Hail to the manini and pôpolo
