He punawai i weheiae, weheiae, weheiae
He punawai i weheiae, Ke koko o Iesu
Ma laila no e pau loa ai, e pau loa ai, e pau loa ai,
Ma laila no e pau loa ai, Na hewa o ke ao.
HUI
E punawai nani! E ku au ia nei.
A kuu hewa ma ou la Ehu i ka lai ai.
Nui na lawe hala nei, hala nei, hala nei,
Nui na lawe hala nei. I hele a auau
Ma kela punawai maikai, wai maikai, wai maikai,
Ma kela punawai maikai, A maemae no lakou.
O wau no hoi, ua hewa e, hewa e, hewa e,
O wau no hoi, ua hewa e, A pau ma ele no,
Ma laila wau e auau ai, auau ai, auau ai,
Ma laila wau e auau ai, I maemae pu no au.

English Translation by Ata Damasco:
A fountain flowing, flowing, flowing
A fountain flowing by the blood of Jesus
There it will all end, surely finish
There it will all end, the sins of the world.
Chorus:
Oh! Beautiful fountain, here I stand
With all my sins, please forgive me.
A lot of sins and wickedness are here
A lot of sins and wickedness I have to go and cleanse
There in the good fountain, clean water, clean water
In the fountain to wash them all.
I have sinned, wrong, wrong
I have sinned, never more to sin
This is where Ill bathe, wash, wash
This is where Ill bathe, baptized in water.
