No ke aha o ke aha
E ʻoluʻolu e haʻi mai iaʻu i ke kumu
Ua kū ʻoe i loko o nā ʻauwaha a kali a make?

I ka wā o ke kāne e mālama ana, ua ʻōlelo ʻo "go over the top" No ke aha mai ʻole ʻoukou a pau
ʻ Saylelo "Kū, kū, kū"?

Me kou mau wāwae i ka lepo ʻO kou poʻo i ke ao A ʻaʻole paha lākou i haʻi iā ʻoe
Hele ʻoe i ka hale me ka uhi?

A hoʻi kēlā poʻe i hoʻi i ka home A me kāu poʻe keiki hānau ʻole A me kēlā mau miliona i waiho ʻia e kanikau

Nā keikikāne āu i pepehi ai A kou mau hoaaloha i make Hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻi iaʻu i kēia manawa He aha ka mea i māʻona?

Ka poʻe mālama. ʻAʻohe mea e hāʻawi
Akā ka luku loa
Ua kāhea lākou i nā mea ʻē aʻe.

Pehea lākou i loaʻa ai iā ʻoe
E inaina aku i kekahi i kekahi
Ke hohonu maoli i lalo
He kaikaina ʻoe na kekahi kaikaina?

Pepehi kekahi i kekahi
ʻAʻohe ona wahi ma ka honua
Pehea ʻoe i ʻike ʻole ai
ʻAʻole ia kou waiwai maoli?

Loaʻa iā mākou nā mea like he kanaka
A me nā mahele āpau o mākou
ʻAʻole lākou e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia.
