Hui:
Kainō a ʻo wau wale nō ka i ʻike
I nā latitū aʻā ia aupuni
Eia kā he nui loa a he lehulehu
Nā pailaka o ia awa kū moku ē
- Loko ʻino maoli nō hoʻi ʻoe e ke hoa
- Ko lilo paha i ka ʻulala
- Aloha ʻole iho i nei kupuʻeu
- E ʻau hele nei i ka moana
- E kuhi ana paha ʻoe a e nalo ana
- Kāu hana hōʻehaʻeha naʻau
- I ka nalo ʻana aʻe o kuʻu maka
- Lawa pono iho ai ko makemake
Aia i mua kuʻu nui kino
Aia i hopekuʻu hoʻoilina
I ʻaneʻi hoʻi au ʻeha ka manaʻo
I ka lohe ʻana mai ua heo ʻoe
| Chorus:
I thought that I was the only
one that knew
The latitude of this
kingdom
There are many,
multitudes
Pilots of this boat
harbor
- You are truly bitter,
friend
- You are cruel
- You have no love for this
rascal
- I shall sail out to sea
- Perhaps you think it will
vanish
- These things that hurt me
deeply
- They disappear before my
eyes
- And your desires are
satisfied
There up ahead is the essence of me
There behind is my legacy
Right here I am, with hurt feelings
Having heard that you've departed
