Nani Hawaiʻi ka moku o Keawe
Lei haʻaheo i ka lehua
A me ka maile aʻo Panaewa

Kilakila ʻo Maui lā iā Haleakalā
Ua kapu roselani
A noʻu hoʻokahi wale nō

ʻOhuʻohu Oʻahu i ka ʻilima
He kohu manu ʻōʻō
Hulu melemele o ke kuahiwi

Lei Kauaʻi i ka mokihana
Lauaʻe o Makana
O kaʻu aloha nō ia

Kaulana Molokaʻi i ka ulu kukui
O Lanikāula
A me ka wailele aʻo Moaʻula

ʻO Niʻihau, Kahoʻolawe, Lānaʻi
Hoʻoheno me ka pūpū
Ka hinahina me ke kaunaʻoa

Haʻina ʻia mai ana ka puana
Na lei o Hawaiʻi
Na lei o Hawaiʻi e ō mai
