I hear the voice of my land
Calling me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian Islands
My isle of golden dreams.
Out of the mist, lips I have kissed, call tenderly
Out of the west, hands I have pressed, beckon to me
Over the sea, waiting for me, lonely and blue
Somebody sighs, somebody cries, I love you, I love you.
Drifting in dreams, drifting it seems, back to the shore
Where hand in hand, over the sand we'll stroll once more
Heart of my heart, we'll never part, I hear her say
But with the dawn, my dreams have gone, astray.
I hear the voice of my land
Callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian Islands
My isle of golden dreams...
