E ku`u lei, e ku`u lei
Aloha lei makamae
Eia au ke kali nei
E ho`i mai kâua e pili
Kou aloha ka`u e hi`ipoi nei
Na kau a kau na kau a kau


E ku`u lei e ku`u lei
Aloha lei makamae
Nou ho`okahi a li`a aloha
A hea la `oe maliu mai
E ku`u lei e ku`u lei

My lei, my lei
Precious lei of love
Here, I wait for you
Return to me so both of us can be close
Our love is mine to cherish
For all times


My lei, my lei
Precious lei of love
My greatest (first) desire
I call to you, heed (me)
My lei, my lei
