Kamalani o Keaukaha

Lena Machado

Nani pua `a`ala onaona i ka ihu
E moani nei i ka pai pu hala
Mehana ku`u poli i ka hanu a ka ipo
I hui puia me ke aloha pumehana
    Beautiful, flowers sweetly fragrant
Scented, gentle breeze in groves of hala
My heart is warmed by my darling's breath
Kiss sweetly fragrant with the warmest love
 
Carnation i wili `ia me maile lauli`i
`Iliwai like ke aloha pili polu
Darling sweet lei onaona o ia kaha
E ho`oipo nei me ke Kamalani o Keaukaha
    Carnation entwined with the small-leaved maile
Love moistly clinging, level as water's surface
Darling, sweet fragrant lei of this place
Sharing love with Keaukaha's favored child
