- Na ke kelepona au i ha`i mai
- Ua noho hope `oe no ko lei
-
-
- I laila kulu iho ku`u waimaka
- Ho`opulu `ana i ka lau lihilihi

- Na wai `ole ko`u aloha
- I ka ua loku mai i ka nahele

- My sweetheart is in
Kohala
- With the wind-borne rain of
Kawaihae
-
-
- Wapine sets up a barking late
at night
- That dog that sniffs at the
footprints
-
-
- It was the telephone that told
me
- That you are again with your
darling
-
-
- Then my tears began to
gather
- Wetting the tips of my
lashes
-
-
- I have some right to you
- For you are imprinted in my
heart
-
-
- How can I help loving
- The rain pours in the
forest
-
-
- Go and obey the command given
you
- Then come back to be with
me
-
-
- You and I have known
- This great thing called
love
-
-
- This ends my chant
- For the six flowers that
complete my lei
