Waimea Kuʻu ʻOne Hānau

Written by Alice Namakelua

Nani Waimea kuʻu one hānau Beautiful Waimea, my birthplace

Kaulana i ka ua Kīpuʻupuʻu Famous with the Kīpuʻupuʻu rain
Me nā kuahiwi nani ʻekolu And the three beautiful mountains
Nou mau kou hoʻohihi Tis you I admire always

Kaulana nō nā paniolo pipi Famous indeed the cowboys

Hiehie ma luna o nā lio Attractive on the horses
Kau e ka lei me ka hainakā nui They wear a lei and a large
Hoʻohihi ʻoe ke ʻike handkerchief
You admire when you see them

Haʻina ʻia kuʻu one hānau

Kaulana Ikuwa me Kaʻaua I'm telling of my birthplace
Nēia mau keiki lawe a lilo Made famous by Ikuwa and Kaʻaua
I ka hae o ka lanakila These two boys who took away
The flag of victory
