LYRICS:
Ku wale mai no, ka huila wai
A`ohe wai `iau, E nini u ai
(Repeat)
Hale ani ani ku, maui `oe no
He hoa kuka, pu me kaua
(Repeat)
Aloha `ia no, `o`i `o lele
I sa lele ahea, i no ka moana
(Repeat)
Aloha `ia no, o Waiohinu
Ka pali lele wai, a ke ko ae
(Repeat)
Mai noho `oe, a ho`o poina
I kahi pikake, ulu ma`ema`e
Mai noho `oe, a ho`o poina
I kahi pikake, ulu ma`ema`e
Ha`ina `ia mai, ana kapuana
A`ohe wai ia `u, e niniu ai
TRANSLATION:
The windmill just stands still
No water comes swirling up
You are a constant reflection of me
My companion, always conversing with me
Beloved indeed is Môlîlele
When the clouds swirl, the ocean is stormy
Beloved is the koae bird from
The waterfall of Wai`ôhinu
Just don't you forget
This attractive peacock
Tell the refrain
No water comes swirling up
