Kahelahela mai uka o Hamakua
O Hamakua lele i Koa'e kea
A ka muliwai o Waipi'o

I ke aloha Ki'owai maila o Hi'ilawe
E luana i ka noe
E'a'e'a mai i luna i ka uhiwai
I ka uhiwai, noho i na pali
O ke aloha, e pili mau ai
E lawe mai i ka wehi o Hi'ilawe He inoa no, no ku'u 'aina o Hamakua

O keia 'aina, uluwehi i ka nahele
Me ka Hau'oki o Mauna Kea
He inoa no, no ku'u 'aina o Hamakua A fragrant soft breeze beckons the never ending rain, Ualanihela.
Spreading over the uplands of Hamakua,
Hamakua where the white tailed Koa'e soar the cliffs,
To the rivers of Waipi'o, I recall my thoughts of love. Above is the sacred pool of Hi'ilawe
Where the mists greet the cliffs and sit above
There they linger together in love
These are the riches brought forth from the waters of Hi'ilawe I honor Hamakua, land of my birth
Call and answer you the lei of Lehua of this land
This land rich and abundant is its forests undergrowth
And the strong winter snow rains of Mauna Kea
For I honor Hamakua, my land of birth, Hamakua |
