He nani no `oe ia Ninini
He beauty maoli no
Kuahiwi nani `oe a`o Ha`upu
Ka pua mokihana, ea
Ka pua nani o Kaua`i
Ho`ohihi ka mana`o a`o Kaua`i
E o mai ko leo aloha
Ke kani a`o Pi`ilani
Ha`ina `ia mai ana ka puana
Kaulana mai nei Nawiliwili
He nani maoli no
George Manoa Huddy II
You are lovely, because of Ninini
Very beautiful, indeed
You are a beautiful mountain, Ha`upu
With the mokihana berry
The lovely flower of Kaua`i
I cherish my thoughts of Kaua`i
Your beloved voice answers
The call of Pi`ilani
Tell the refrain
Famous is Nawiliwili
Very beautiful, indeed
