Hoale mai ana i kona koko i o’u nei.
E Lau e, Lau e-e!
No’u ke ala, i hele aku ho’i, e-e!
TRANSLATION
I enter the land of Mahiki;
I counter the head-hunting witch.
See me pluck the head from her body;
See me tear out her very heart,
Till her blood surges round me in waves—
Blood of the monster that’s legion.
