E Hô Mai
Na (By) Aunty Edith Kanaka`ole

 
E hô mai ka `ike, mai luna mai e,
[eh HOH mai kah ee'-keh, mai loo'-nah mai (y)eh]
Grant us the knowledge from above,

No nâ mea huna no`eau no nâ mele e.
[noh NAH meh'-(y)ah hoo'-nah noh-eh-(y)au noh NAH meh'-leh eh]
Concerning the hidden wisdom of the songs.

 E hô mai, e hô mai, e hô mai e.
[eh HOH mai, eh HOH mai, eh HOH mai eh]
Grant us, grant us, grant us.
