Lei Lehua O Panaʻewa
ʻO ʻoe no ia e kuʻu lei lehua
Ke ʻala onaona o Panaʻewa
Ua kohu no ʻoe me ka nani mae ʻole
I lei hoʻohie no Hilo Bay
ʻO ʻoe no ia e maile lauliʻi
Ke ʻala onaona o Hanakāhi
Hoʻokahi no liʻa e hoʻi e ʻike
E pili me iala me mahina laʻilaʻi
Ua liʻa no au e ʻike ia ʻoe
I ka wai lehua a ka manu
I ka ua kilihune noenoe i ka lehua
E wehi aʻe la i kuʻu home
Hoʻi mai ke aloha me kuʻu lei lehua
E lei i ke one o Punahoa
He hoa no ʻoe i ka wai kilihune
I ka wai huʻihuʻi o Hilo Bay
Me ʻoe ke aloha e ka nani mae ʻole
Ke ʻala onaona o Hanakāhi
ʻAkahi ke aloha ua hiki mai
E pili ka lehua o kuʻu home
Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana
Kuʻu lei lehua o Panaʻewa
