You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are grey
You'll never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

O ʻoe hoʻokahi
Kuʻu lā hulali
Kuʻu hoʻo hauʻoli
Ke kali nei au
Mai hele aku
E noho mai
E aloha no au ia ʻoe

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Hoʻomālamalama
He ʻōlinolino nō
Hoʻomālamalama
Hе ʻōlinolino nō
Hoʻomālamalama
He ʻōlinolino nō
Lino aku, lino mai, lino no
O ʻoe hoʻokahi
Kuʻu lā hulali
Kuʻu hoʻo hauʻoli
Ke kali nеi au
Mai hele aku
E noho mai

Please don’t take my sunshine away
Lino aku, lino mai, lino nō
Let it shine, lino mai, let them shine
