Of the stranger with a white face!

O long knife of Lono, the gift of Lono;

It flashes like fire in the sun;

Its edge is sharper than stone,

Sharper than the hard stone of Hualalai;

The spear touches it and breaks,

The strong warrior sees it and dies!

Where is the long knife of the stranger?

Where is the sacred gift of Lono?

It came to Wailuku and is lost,
