Aia i Kaʻalaʻalaʻa
Kuʻu wahi kupuna wahine
Ua nui kona mau lā
ʻO ka noho ʻana i ke ao nei
 
Kana hana i ke kakahiaka
ʻO ka wehe i ka Paipala nui
Kiʻi akula i nā makaaniani
A penei e kau ai
 
Hui:
E aloha kākou iā ia
E mālama kākou iā tūtū
E hoʻano kākou iā ia
Ko kākou kupuna wahine
 
A kau mai e ke ahiahi
Hoʻomākaukau e pule
Kiʻi akula i nā makaaniani
Auwe! Ua nalowale
 
Aia i kā lae
I ka lae kahi kau ai
Ua poina loa ʻia
I luna i ka lae
