ʻAuhea wale ʻoe e ka moaʻe
E lawe hele nei i kuʻu aloha

Ahea la ʻoe hoʻihoʻi mai
A he lei poina ʻole ia naʻu

A he wehi kāhiko nō kuʻu kino
A he hoa i ke anu pili hemo ʻole

E lei aku ʻoe i kuʻu aloha
I koʻolua nou nō kahi mehameha

Mai noho ʻoe a hoʻopoina
I kahi pōkē pua lalana

A kāua la i kui iho ai
Kāhiko nō ka pō ua liʻiliʻi

Ilihia hoʻi au a i kō leo
I ka pane ʻana mai me ka nahenahe

I he aha nei hana nui au
E haʻi mai `oe e kuʻu aloha

He aloha i pili ʻia e ke onaona
Kuʻu ipo i ke kai malino aʻo Kona

Nō Kona mai nō ke kai malino
Nā hau o Mā`ihi e kaulana nei

Haʻina ʻia mai ka puana
Kuʻu ipo i ke kai malino aʻo Kona
