Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower oh.

I dreamt of paradise for two. ( My lovely Leilani )

You are my paradise completed. ( My lovely Leilani )

You are my dream come true.



Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower oh,

Tropic skies are jealous while they shine. ( My lovely Leilani )

I think they're jealous of your blue eyes. ( My lovely Leilani )

Jealous because you're mine.



I think they're jealous of your blue eyes. ( My lovely Leilani )

Jealous because you're mine.



Sweet Leilani, heavenly flower oh,

Nature's fashion roses kissed with dew. ( My lovely Leilani )

And then she placed them in a bower. ( My lovely Leilani )

It was the start of you.

My lovely Lei-lan-i.
