Kula 'ula 'ula poni

'alani melemele polu

'akala 'oma 'oma 'o



Come to the festival of colours

Celebrate the festival of colours



Shake your serpent thrashing hair

Come and tint the sleeping air

Across the seas from india

But a rainbow can start anywhere



Clutching handfuls of the powder

Throw it everywhere

Chanting out their many names

Kick it to the wind...



Kula 'ula 'ula poni

'alani melemele polu

'akala 'oma 'oma 'o...
