Ka Makua mana loa	Almighty Father bend thine ear
Maliu mai iâ mâkou	And listen to a nation's prayer
E hâliu aku nei	That lowly bows before thy throne
Me ka na`au ha`aha`a	And seeks thy fostering care
E mau ka maluhia	Grant your peace throughout the land
O nei pae `âina	Over these sunny sea girt isles
Mai Hawai`i a Ni`ihau	Keep the nation's life, oh Lord,
Ma lalo o kou malu	And on our sovereign smile

Hui:	Chorus:
E mau ke ea o ka `âina	Grant your peace throughout the land
Ma kou pono mau	Over these sunny isles
A ma kou mana nui	Keep the nations life, oh Lord
E ola e ola ka mô`î	And upon our sovereign smile

E ka haku mâlama mai	Guard him with your tender care
I ko mâkou nei mô`î	Give him length of years to reign
E mau kona noho `ana	On the throne his fathers won
Maluna o ka noho ali`i	Bless the nation once again
Hâ`awi mai i ke aloha	Give the king your loving grace
Maloko a kona na`au	And with wisdom from on high
A ma kou ahonui	Prosperous lead his people on
E ola e ola ka mô`î	As beneath your watchful eye
Ho`oho e mau ke	Grant your peace throughout the land

Ma lalo o kou aloha nui	Bless O Lord our country's chiefs
Na Li`i o ke Aupuni	Grant them wisdom so to live
Me nâ maka`âinana	That our people may be saved
Ka lehulehu nô a pau	And to You the glory give
Kia`i mai iâ lâkou	Watch over us day by day
Me ke aloha ahonui	King and people with your love
E ola nô mâkou	For our hope is all in You
I kou mana mau	Bless us, You who reign above
E mau ke ea	Grant your peace throughout the land
