Ka Huila Wai

[Hawaiian]

Kū wale mai nō, Ka Huila Wai
'A'ohe wai ia'u, e niniu ai

He aniani kū, mau 'oe nō
He hoa kūkā, pū me kāua

Aloha 'ia nō, 'o'i'o lele
I sa lele ahea, i ka moana

Aloha 'ia nō, 'o Waiohinu
Ka pali lele wai, a ke koa'e

Mai noho 'oe, a ho'o poina
I kahi pīkake, ulu ma'ema'e

Ha'ina 'ia mai, ana ka puana
A'ohe wai ia'u, e niniu ai

[English]

The windmill just stands still
No water comes swirling up

You are a constant reflection of me
My companion, always conversing with me

Beloved indeed is Môlîlele
When the clouds swirl, the ocean is stormy

Beloved is the koae bird from
The waterfall of Wai'ôhinu

Just don't you forget
This attractive peacock

Tell the refrain
No water comes swirling up
