Puamana, my home in Lahaina

With abundant sweet smelling flowers

My home, much beloved

There is my home, in the grove of coco palms

The coconut trees standing majestic

Gently swaying and rustling

Beautiful home, home at the edge of the sea

Bright beams of moonlight

Dance on the whispering sea

The refrain is told

Of my home in Lahaina

So filled with happiness
