He nani kou e Venuse              You are beautiful, O Venus 
          F   Am
E kau ha`aheo nei                 Resting proudly on high            
 Dm             C7                    
`Olinolino mai i luna             A gleaming light above
                F
O ka maka o ka opua               Before the face of the clouds
  
  
He mana`o ho`ohali`a              An expectant thought comes 
Ho`onape ana i ka poli            Causing a stir within
I kau ha`i ana mai                When you told me 
Eia a`e ku`u huapala              That my loved one approaches
  
  
Ku`u hoa kuikui lima              Companion with whom I hold hands 
O a pö mahina la`i konane         On bright moonlight nights
I ka nehe mai a ke kai            Where waves gently wash ashore 
Häwanawana i ke one               To whisper softly to the sands
  
  
Pili `ia me kealoha               Together with love, always 
I ka ua nui me ka makani          In the rains and the winds     
Kama ia a pa`a pono               Bound securely together 
Ua kumu i ka pu`uwai              With deep affection in the heart  
  
  
Ha`ina mai ka puana               This ends my song 
No ka nani O Venuse               Of the beauty of Venus 
`Olinolino mai i luna             Gleaming high above 
I ka maka o ka `öpua              Before the face of the clouds
