Na kane ame na wahine,

E hana ana i ka pono o ka lehulehu,

Of the Sea spray of Puaena,

To the Caiptol of Washington.

You are the delegate of the lahui,
To work for the welfare of the people,
From Hawaii to Niihau,

Secure the banner of victory,
The delegate of Hawaii nei,
To got to America,
To the white building where laws are enacted.]
