Pau means finished, you're all through
Hanahou means do it again
Tho' you're finished, if you hear the call
Hanahou, we'll do it again
Not pau, but hanahou
Just do it again
Please keep right on dancing
Oh! Do it again
Oh, you sway, Hawaiian way
To tell of your charms
I'm held in the spell
Of your arms
You talk about the moon above the treetops
Spoke about the waves upon the sands
You've sung about the breezes in the valley
But it's all been done with your hula hands
Not pau, don't stop it now
Please do it again
Go on, hanahou, not pau
Make it again
Any old time
Any old place
No, not pau
