Wahine Hele La
Appearance
Honi ana i ke anu i ka mea huʻihuʻi
Huʻi hewa i ka ʻili i ka ua Pōʻaihala
Lei ana i ka mokihana i ka wewehi o Kaiona
Līhau pue i ke anu hauʻoki o Kaleponi
Hui:
E ō ka wahine hele lā o Kaiona
Alualu wai liʻulā o ke kaha puaʻohai
O ka ua lanipō lua pō anu o ke Koʻolau
Kuʻu hoa o ka malu kī malu kukui o Kahoʻiwai
Hiaʻai ka welina ka neneʻe a ka ʻōhelo papa
Puapua i ka noe mohala i ke anu
Noho nō me ka ʻanoi ka manaʻo ia loko
O loko hana nui, pauʻole i ke ana ʻia
A ka wailele o Niakala ʻike i ka wai ānuenue
I ka pōʻaiʻai a ka ʻehu haliʻi paʻa i laila
Pue ana i ka ʻehu wai, pupuʻu i ke koʻekoʻe
Eia iho ka mehana o ka poli o Hiʻilei
