Mahalo a`e ana au I ka nani a`o Hanauma Ke kai kû`ono hâla`i Pô`ai `ia e nâ pali Ua makemake nui `ia Ke alanui kîke`eke`e E iho aku ai i lalo I ke kaha one âkea He kahua na ka lehulehu E luana hau`oli ai E ho`olono like a`e ana I ka leo hone o ke kai `Olu`olu i ka pe`ahi A ka makani aheahe E ho`oluli mâlie nei I na lau a`o ke kiawe Ha`ina mai ka puana No ka nani a`o Hanauma Ke kai kû`ono hâla`i Pô`ai ia e nâ pali
| I am admiring The beauty of Hanauma A restful bay Surrounded by cliffs Much do I enjoy The winding road That leads downward (to) The wide and sandy beach A place for the public To relax happily To listen together To the pleasant sounds of the sea Cooled by the fanning Of a gentle breeze That set in motion The kiawe leaves This ends my song (of praise) For the beauty of Hanauma A restful bay Surrounded by cliffs
