He aloha kuʻu ipo
Kuʻu hoa maka onaona
Noho i ke kuahiwi
E hoʻi mai nō kāua
Me au e pili e kuʻu ʻiʻini
A ka puʻu wai
O ka pā kōnane
A ka mahina la
Ahuwale no ka pae ʻopua
Haʻina mai ka puana
Kuʻu hoa maka onaona
Noho i ke kuahiwi

Love for my sweetheart
My gentle-eyed companion
Who resides in the mountains
Let us return, we two
My desire (for you) is
Always in my heart
Brightly shining
Is the moon
Revealing the cloudbanks
Tell the refrain
My gentle-eyed companion
Who resides in the mountains
