Āwā hoʻi ke kani a kau hānaiāhulu
Ka ʻaka helē ʻuhene i ʻō i ʻaneʻi
Lā wai kēia lei pāpahi?
No kuʻu pua ʻuʻi ke aloha
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Resounding is the voice of your cherished caregiver
A smile, a playful giggle flutters here
For whom is this adorned lei?
For my beautiful flower, the love
Mohala maila i ka mauna
Māewa i ka maka o ka ʻōpua
Lupea ka nae kolopua
I hali mai i ke āhea makani
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
She blossoms on the mountain
Graceful in the eyes of the clouds
The adorned brow is covered in blossoms
Carried here by the gentle breeze
