Ho’opuka e ka la ma ka hikina
Me ka huaka`i hele no Kumukahi
Ha’a mai na ‘iwa me Hi’iaka
Me Kapo-Laka i ka uluwehiwehi
Ne’e mai na ‘iwa ma ku’u alo
Me ke alo kapu o ka aiwaiwa
Ho’i no e ke kapu me na ali’i
E ola makou apau loa la
Ea la, ea la, ea la, ea
He inoa no Hi’iaka I Ka Poli ‘O Pele

Rise, O sun in the east
With a procession going to Kumukahi
Dancing are the beautiful ones with Hi’iaka
And Kapo-Laka in the verdant grove
Moving ahead are the dancers toward me
And to the sacred presence of the divine
Let the sacred ways return to the chiefs
Let us all give everlasting praise
Ea la, ea la, ea la, ea
In the name of Hi’iaka-in-the-bosom-of Pele
