Оригинален текст

Kui:
One paddle, two paddle, three paddle,
Four to take me home
Fourteen on the right, fourteen on the left,
Take me to Hawaii nei, no ka best.
I went away a long time
Such a long time, a long time ago
Seen enough cities to last a lifetime
Goin' away no more
I want to smell the fowers,
The sweet flowers when the trade winds blow
Seen enough fences to last a lifetime
Goin' away no more
Yes, take me to my lover
My fair lover, I left long ago
Felt enough sorrow to last a lifetime
Goin' away no more
