Lei No Kaiulani - John Edwards
I lawe` ia mai no ku`u lani
I wili ia me maile lau li`i
I ohu i wehi no Kaiulani
Me he pûnohu` ula ala i ke kai
Ka nohea nohea ke `ike aku
I ku`u wehilani
E ola mau e Kaiulani
Hui:
E ki`i mai ho`i e lei
E Kaiulani i ka`iu o luna
I kô lei lehua pua kea
I wili ia me maile lau li`i
Princess Kaiulani
Are brought for my princess
Entwined with strands of dainty maile
Adorned to beautify Kaiulani
As a rainbow over the sea
Is beautiful to see
So is my royal darling
Long may you live, Kaiulani
Chorus:
Come and wear your lei
O Kaiulani, Heavenly-one-above
Your lei of white lehua
Entwined with strands of dainty maile
