Letra de Ka Uluwehi O Ke Kai

He ho'oheno ke ike aku
Ke kai moana nui la
Me ke ‘ala o ka lipoa
He lipoa i pae i ke one
Ke one hinuhinu la
Wela i ka la ke hehi a‘e
Mai mana‘o he pono keia!
Ho‘okohukohu e ka limu kohu
Ke kau i luna o na moku la
‘O ia maku ‘ula la e ho
‘Oni ana i ‘oi anei
TRANSLATION
The Plants of the Sea
Such a delight it is to see
The great big ocean
So familiar and very cherished
With its fragrance of the lipoa
It is lipoa which washes ashore
Onto the shiny white sand
Hot from the heating sun as you step on it
Don't think that this is fun!
How enticing is the display of limu kohu
Atop the rocks in the ocean
Enticing one to pick them
As they sway to and fro
