On the isle of Filla Lilla out Hawaii way

A hula maiden gay strolled by on moonlit bay

There come-a to court her over the water

From a savage Zinga-Zululand



A bolo chief-tain grand sang her this lay.



An@d he sang hula

hawaii hula



Smile on your zing gang a zula.

Moonshine above on your sweet jungle love.

For you my bolo is swinging



For you my love song I'm singing

Come be my hula hula love.

But the chief-tain from the peaceful Filla Lilla land

Would not give him her hand

her love took his stand

Through the rattle of the battle as she heard

His sweet voice calm and true



They fled in his canoe over water blue.



And he sang hulu

hawaii hula
