Lyrics:
| E ku’u pili aloha Ku’u lei kau po’ohiwi Onaona i ka ihu Nohea i ka maka Liliko i ka ua kilihune Kilipohe i ke kanilehua Wewelo ke aloha i ka ‘onohi ‘Ume’ume mai ho’i kau E kahi lei ho’oheno | My dear friend My lei that adorns my shoulders Sweet to smell Beautful to look at Glistening in the wind-blown spray Moistened by the kanilehua rain Love streams before my eyes Oh, how alluring you are My cherished friend |
