Kaulana o Kawaihae
I ke kai hâwanawana

E 'ôlelo mai kahiko mai 
O Puaka'ilima 

E kilohi iâ Mauna Kea
Kuahiwi kû kilakila
E 'ôlelo mai kahiko mai 
O Puaka'ilima 

Ha'ina mai ka puana
Kuahiwi kû kilakila
E 'ôlelo mai kahiko mai 
O Puaka'ilim

Restful Kawaihae
In the whispering sea

Telling from olden times 
Of Puaka'ilima 

Gaze at Mauna Kea
Mountain standing majestic
Telling from olden times 
Of Puaka'ilima 

Tell the refrain
Mountain standing majestic
Telling from olden times 
Of Puaka'ilima
