Ancestors from the rising to the setting sun
From the zenith to the horizon
Ancestors who stand at our back
And front
You stand at our right hand
A breathing in the heavens
An utterance in the heavens
A clear ringing voice in the heavens
A voice reverberating in the heavens
An utterance in the heavens
Here are your descendants, (Grandma's name)
Safeguard us
That we may flourish in the heavens
That we may flourish on earth
That we may flourish in the Hawaiian Islands
Grant us knowledge
Grant us strength
Grant us intelligence
Grant us understanding
Grant us insight
Grant us power
