He Nani Helena - Alvin Isaacs, Sr

E kuʻu ipo, kuʻu pua aloha
He nani Helena i kuʻu maka

Ko papālina mehana ai
Kou kino, kuʻu kino milimili

ʻAuhea nō ʻoe, e ke aloha
Hoʻi mai kāua lā e pili

Maʻaneʻi nō ʻoe ʻike ai
Ka nani iā mea he aloha

Haʻina ʻia mai ka puana
He nani Helena, e kuʻu ipo

My sweetheart, my beloved flower
Helena is beautiful in my eyes
 
Your cheeks are warm
Your person, mine to caress
 
Listen, my love
Let`s go back together and stay

Come here and see
The beauty of this thing, love

The story is told of
The beauty of Helena, my sweetheart.
