Aloha wale pua hinahina
I lei hoʻohie no kuʻu kino
Hui:
ʻAkahi hoʻi ka hikina mai
Ke aloha naenae hone i ka lipo
*alternate 2nd stanza
(Ka haliʻa ʻana hone i ka lipo)
ʻO loko hana nui ka ʻanoʻi
Ka haliʻa ʻana me ke aloha
|
Ever fond am I of the hinahina
A lei that is lovely, to adorn my body
Chorus:
For the first time it has come to me
This tender love that teases me
*alternate 2nd stanza
(The yearning that fills my heart)
It works within, stirring up much
love
Creating a longing and love
