Lyrics:
Ulili ë(Ahahana 'ulili ehehene 'ulili ahahana)'Ulili ho'i(Ehehene 'ulili ahahana 'ulili ehehene)'Ulili holoholo kahakai ëO ia kai ua lana mälieThe sandpiperThe sandpiper returnsSandpiper runs along the beachWhere the sea is peaceful and calmHone ana ko leo e 'ulili ëO kahi manu noho 'ae kaiKia'i ma ka lae a'o kekaha'O ia kai ua lana mälieThe voice of the sandpiper is soft and sweetLittle bird who lives by the seaEver watchful on the beachesWhere the sea is calmHone ana ko leo kölea ëPehea 'o Kahiki? Maika'i nö'O ia 'äina 'uluwehiwehiI hui pü 'ia me ke onaonaThe voice of the 'ulili is soft and sweetHow are you, stranger? Very wellYou grace our landWhere the sea is always calm
