| English: |
| Beautiful is the fragrance |
| The fragrance of the pi^kake |
| The mist that accompanies the light rain |
| And gently moistens the skin |
| Peaceful is the fragrance |
| O pikake flower buds |
| In the mist of fine rain |
| In the happy sound of water over stones |
| (alternate stanza) |
| Cold am I and throbbing |
| In the chilling water |
| The cold, crystal water |
| I’ll remember you |
| My love for the tuberose (`ilima) flower |
| Windblown perfume to the heart |
| Rejoicing in the nectar of the flower |
| The mist and fine rain |
| In the hills of Ka^`ilikahi |
| The most beautiful flower bud |
| A patch of rainbow water |
