Huki aku la. a huki mai, a huki aku la Hukihuki mai
Along the beach at Waikiki A handsome kane (fair wahine) is waiting for me With his (her) dark eyes and lovable charms And very sweet Hawaiian hospitality
Beneath the moon we strolled along And life is just like a beautiful song And when he (she) whispered come into my arms It's just the old Hawaiian hospitality
Hui: And though my heart may sob Aloha when I sail away How my heart will throb to the thought Of coming back some day
And when my dreams of love come true There will be okolehao for two A bit of welakahao might do It's just the old Hawaiian hospitality
