Paroles: Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole. Ka Huila Wai.

[Hawaiian]

Ku wale mai no, Ka Huila Wai
'A'ohe wai ia'u, e niniu ai

He aniani ku, mau 'oe no
He hoa kuka, pu me kaua

Aloha 'ia no, 'o'i'o lele
I sa lele ahea, i ka moana

Aloha 'ia no, 'o Waiohinu
Ka pali lele wai, a ke koa'e

Mai noho 'oe, a ho'o poina
I kahi pikake, 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 Molilele
When the clouds swirl, the ocean is stormy

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

Just don't you forget
This attractive peacock

Tell the refrain
No water comes swirling up
