He kanikau O Kapu

E hanau ke ao, E hanau ka po,
Naueue no Lahaina nei
Lele wale ke kupuna Kapu
Ke Kunou nei i ka makani kaua’ula
E hele malie i ko kakou mau kupuna i hala
E Ku nei ka nohona i ka Lewalani
E moe e, e moe me Niolopua
Ke aloha nui ka mano o Kapu

Eia ko mano, Hele oe, Ke hele nei oe Hele loa
