I went to Hilo
To see the volcano
I met a Hawaiian girl
She
Presented me with lei lehua
I went to Maui
To Haleakala
I met a Hapa Haole girl
She
Presented me with Roselani
I went to Oahu
To the Moana Hotel
I met a Haole girl
She
Presented me with lei ilima
Ha'ina ia mai
Ana ka puana
I met a Hawaiian girl
She
Presented me with lei aloha
The above is as recorded in 1929 by Johnny Noble. The song has many versions with girls of all the races of
Hawaii represented. Kauai is also usually included.
