[Verse 1]
Ha'aheo ka ua i nā pali
Ke nihi a'e la i 'kanahele
E uhai ana paha i ka Liko
Pua 'Āhihi Lehua o uka
[Chorus]
Aloha 'oe, aloha 'oe
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
One fond embrace, a ho'i a'e au
Until we meet again
[Verse 2]
Proudly swept the rain cloud by the cliffs,
As on it glided through the trees
bringing back remembrance of the past
and all of the loved ones left behind
[Chorus 2]
Farewell to thee,
Farewell to thee,
Thou charming one who dwellst among the bow'rs.
One fond embrace,
Before I now depart,
Until we meet again.
Aloha ‘Oe was written by Queen Liliuokalani.
