As I strolled along the shore
In a muumuu made of koa
While I played a tune
On my sweet okolehao
And I sang a pretty song
As she danced her sweet kapu
With a wiki wiki smile
And a nui nui holoku
Pretty soon by the light of the tropical moon
A malihini did appear
And he strolled hand in hand
On the beautiful sand
With a lovely pilikia
Then he softly told her how
He'd seen a great big bad luau
With a red opu
And a great big hukilau
Humuhumunukunuku apuaas swimming along
Singing a song
Kanes and wahines and even little keikis sing
A ho'omalimali and a welakahao
As I strolled along the sand
In a muumuu made of koa
While I played a tune
On my sweet okolehao
