Lyrics:

Auhea wale 'oe e Hualâlai 'eâ
*Kaulana ka inoa 'o Hualâlai 'eâ
Ke kuini 'o ke kai Pakipika 'eâ

'O 'oe ka 'ulua a'o ka moana 'eâ
A ka lawai'a a'e li'a mau nei 'eâ

Ahê sure maoli no me ke onaona 'eâ
Ua 'ohu i ka lei o ka hînano 'eâ

Ho'okomo i ke awa a'o Honolulu 'eâ
Ua piha hau'oli nâ malihini eâ

Ha'ina 'ia mai ana kapuana 'eâ
*Ha'ina ka inoa 'o 'eâ Hualâlai 'eâ
Ke kuini 'o ke kai Pakipika 'eâ

Listen, this is for you, Hualâlai
*Famous is the name of Hualâlai
Queen of the Pacific
You are like the ulua in the ocean
A favorite of the fishermen

Surely, I smell the native fragrance
As we are adorned with the hînano lei

Landing at Honolulu harbor
Newcomers are filled with joy

Tell the refrain of
*Tell of the name of Hualâlai
The queen of the Pacific
