Lyrics:

Kauai, island of love
Lovely princess of the islands
Kauai, island of love
Listen, can't you hear her calling
Aloha, welcome my love
Her palm trees gently do the hula
While her slaves, the waves
Rush in to kiss her shores
Heaven is another name for
Kauai, island of love
Heaven is another name for
Kauai, island of love
Kauai, island of love
Kauai, island of love
Kauai, island of love...
