E Ku'u morning dew, alia mai, alia mai(2) (2) (2)

Maliu mai 'oe, i ka'u e hea nei

E kali mai 'oe, ia'u nei, ia'u nei (2) (1) (1) (2)

'O wau iho no, me ke aloha

To you alone I say wait for me, wait for me

The days go slowly by without you close to me

I'm standing on a hill looking down, all alone

Awaiting your return to me once more

Wehe mai ke alaula, 'oliliko nei lihau

E ho'ohehelo ana, i neia papalina

I uka o mana i ka 'iu uhiwai

Ma laila no kaua e pili mau ai

Ma laila no kaua e pili mau......ai (2) (2) (2) (rit.) (1) (1) (1) (1)
