I love you, my sweetheart |

A lei of pearls to caress |

You are the choice flower |

Cherished by grandparents |

Joyful thoughts |

Bring love close to the heart |

A lei, the delight of your parents |

Tell again the name-song of my sweetheart |

A treasured and beautiful lei |

You are loveliness in my sight |

You are a beautiful flower of the heavens |
