A he nani Ni`ihau o Kahelelani
Ku`u lei pupu e kaulana nei

Ho`ohihi ka mana`o la i laila
I ka pua lei momi poina `ole

`A`ohe he lua e like ai
E kaulana nei puni ka honua

Puana ka inoa ua lohe `ia
I ka pua lei momi poina `ole

Ha`ina `ia mai ana ka puana
A he nani Ni`ihau o Kahelelani



Beautiful Ni`ihau of Kahelelani
My famous shell lei

There, the mind is enraptured
By the shell lei, so unforgettable

None can compare
They are famous throughout the world

The refrain is heard of the name
The shell lei, so unforgettable

Tell the refrain
Beautiful Ni`ihau of Kahelelani
