ʻUʻina Loko (Nolupe) - Namoolau & Peters

Kuʻu pua hanu ʻala ʻoiala
Kolonahe o ka ahiahi
Heʻawihi ana liʻa loko
Hoʻonanea ana ahi o mākia
No lupē ka haliʻa ua liʻa loko
Hapahapai ʻiʻini ko ka ʻaneʻi
A he aka kau e ka lipoa
E honehone nei i ka ʻiʻi ʻa loko

She is my fragrant flower
Whose perfume is wafted at eventide
A wink and love starts within
And the time is whiled away in courting
The yearning increases, love has begun
The desire is raised and grown
What are you up to, o lipoa seaweed
Wooing to increase the desire in my heart
