Keiki o ka ‘aina la, ho’olohe mai kakou la, i na mo’olelo la, o ka wa kahiko.
He ‘aikanaka ‘o Nanaue la, keiki a kamoho la, komo i ke kihei la, he waha mano kona.

chorus
He ‘ilio kikokiko kupaianaha la, ‘o Puapuakualena la, Ho’iho’i kihapu la, Hau’oli ‘o Waipi’o.
He ali’i kaulana ‘o ‘Umi la, Keiki punahele a liloa la, He’enalu akamai la, Mo’i ha’aha’a ‘olu’olu.

Chorus
He akua lili ‘o pele la, Aloha ia Lohiau la, Ki’i mai ‘o hi’iaka la, I ka ipo nohea, ahahana la.

Chorus
Ha’ina mai ka puana la, Ho’olohe mai kakou la, I na mo’olelo la, O ka wa kahiko, o ka wa kahiko

   Well, if you were to give us the language as to which the song is from, that would help much!

   It’s in Hawaiian, to answer the question by the first answerer. Sorry I can’t be of more help.

   EDIT: “Ho’olohe mai kakou la” is
   “Let us listen together to the stories of the ancient days”
   or
   “Listen to the ancient stories”
