Lanakila ʻIaukea  (1917) 
Ernest Kaʻai (1881-1962)

He aloha ʻāina puʻuwai
O ka ʻoni paʻa
Kū kilakila no ka lahui
Neʻe ēwe o Hawaiʻi a
Kāu i ka lanakila
E ka moho ʻIaukea

Na ka I me ka Mahi
Nei lei mamo liko
Ō iwi ponoʻī no ka iwi kuamoʻo
A imua e ka alo
Me na mana koho
A lanakila ʻoi ʻIaukea

Lalau i ke ihe
Me ka mahiole
Ke kahua mokomoko pahu pāloka
I nui e ke aho
A e na pōkiʻi
A welo e ka hae ʻIaukea

Hui:
Kui ia e ka lei
Lei hiwahiwa
Wili ia ke aloha
Me ka lōkahi
I hōkū alakaʻi ʻIaukea
