Pua wale mai nō ke aloha
Ka paia puīa i keʻala
I ka wai huʻihuʻi aniani
Koʻiawe ka huila wai
Aia i laila ka ʻiʻini
Ka ʻanoʻi a koʻu puʻu wai

Hui:
Old Plantation nani ʻoe
Home pumehana i ke aloha
I ka ʻolu o ka niu
I ka poli o ke onaona

Nahenahe ke ʻala o nā pua
I ka pe ʻia e ke kēhau
Hoʻolaʻi nā manu i laila
Hoʻoipo i ke oho o ka niu
Luhe ʻehu ka palai i ka nuʻa
I ka ʻolu o ka Old Plantation
