ʻAuhea la o ʻanoʻi hoa pili ʻo moonlight
Hoa ʻalo ehuehu o ka pō mahina laʻi
Ua laʻi ka helena aʻohe auau kai
Ua maʻa i ka uli ke steer pololei

Hui:
Hoʻohihi ka manaʻo ia sweet Violet
Pua ʻala huʻihuʻi o ke anu ahiahi
Ahi wela ke aloha e lalawe nei i kuʻu kino
Kuʻu kino ke ʻalo nei i ke aloha o kāua

Ua laʻi no hoʻi ʻoe e kāua lani pili
Pili ʻia e māua kāua me ke koekoe
I mehana hoʻi au i ko leo eke hoa
Kuʻu hoa o ka ʻanoʻi o ke kulu aumoe
