Auhea wale ana ʻoe lā
E kuʻu ipo huapala
Ma ku`u poli no ʻoe lā
Nau ʻoe e honihoni aku
ʻO kohu ulu aha ia lā
Kou neʻe neʻe mai a pili
A pili mai kahuahi manu
Olu wau ka hene kuʻu hana
Ke akamai noeau lā
A he mikioi ke kiʻina
Kauila ma ke neki
Pili kou puʻuwai kapalili
Ke aku ʻoe a mau
E kuʻu lei onaona
Haʻina mai ka puana
E kuʻu ipo huapala

Where are you
My beloved sweetheart
Resting here in my heart
I want to kiss you
Why do I have a rising excitement
My moving until we are together
Till you are close to me
Finding comfort in our progress
With clever thoughts
And sprightly fetching
The electricity between us is like a magnet
My heart flutters
With you I have value
My sweet fragrant lei
I dedicate this song
To my beloved sweetheart
