Reichel Kealii - 'auhea Wale Ana 'oe lyrics

rate me

'Auhea wale ana 'oe,

E ta ua 'Ulalena.

Kahito maila i uka,

I ka nani o Pi'iholo.

Ua like me ka 'opua,

Noho maila i 'Awalau.

Au a'e nei ka mana'o,

E pili me ke aloha.

Aloha 'o Makawao,

I ka ua 'Ukiukiu.

He tiu na ka Naulu,

I ke tula o Kama'oma'o

'O ka loa ka'u i ana,

I ka 'oni o ka lihilihi

Ilihia iho nei loko,

I ka ukana o ke aloha.

Ha'ina mai ka puana,

Maka'ituana he inoa.

Where are you,

Oh 'Ulalena rain,

Adorning the uplands

Amid the beauty of Pi'iholo

Like the billowy clouds

That grace 'Awalau,

My thoughts are drawn

To being together with my beloved.

Beloved is Makawao,

In the 'Ukiukiu rain.

A watcher for the sudden Naulu showers,

Over the plains of Kama'oma'o.

I measured its whole expanse

With but a fleeting glimpse.

a thrill has overcome me,

From the effects love.

Let the story be told

A name song for Maka'ituana.
