Original lyrics
Henehene Kou Aka
Henehene ko aka, kou le 'ale 'a paha
He mea ma 'a mau ia, for you and I.
Ka'a uila makeneki, he 'oni'oni kou kino
He mea ma 'a mau ia, for you and I
I Kaka 'ako makou, 'ai ana i ka pipi stew
He mea ma 'a mau ia, for you and I
I Kapahulu makou, 'ai ana lipoa
He mea ma 'a ia, for you and I
I Waikiki makou, 'au anai ke kai
He mea ma 'a mau ia, for you and I
Our lips have met, our eyes not yet
You make me wait, for you and I
Haina mai ka puana, kou le 'ale 'a paha
He mea ma 'a ia, for you and I
Translation
Henehene Ko Aka
Your laughter is so contagious
It's fun to be with you
Always a good time
For you and I
The streetcar wheels turn
Vibrating your body
Always a good time
For you and I
To Kaka`ako we go
Eating beef stew
Always a good time
For you and I
To Waikiki we go
Swimming in the sea
Always a good time
For you and I
To Kapahulu we go
Eating seaweed
Always a good time
For you and I
Tell the refrain
It's fun to be with you}
Always a good time}
For you and I

Isn't this exactly the same as the other translation? It contains the same mistake (mixing up of the verses)...
