Pa Ka Makani - Chant

 
Pa ka makani
Naue ka lau o ka niu
Ha`a ka pua kowali
I ke kula
Leha ka maka o ka manu
Ai pua lehua
Ha`u ka waha o ke kahuli
I ka nahele
Li ka 'io o Kaauhelemoa la ea
 
 
 
Kahiko ula ka lama i na pali
Ohikihiki ka ua ke nana aku
Nau ia e ua wale mai no
Kikii ka ua nana i ka lani
Hiki ka haili opua o Kaupea la ea
The wind blows,
The leaves of the coconut sway
The morning glory blossoms
And dances on the plains
The eyes of the bird glance about
Then sip lehua honey
The land shells trill
In the forest
The skin of Kaauhelemoa is chilled
 
 
 
The lama bushes redden the hillsides
The rain can be seen moving in columns
Rain on, rain on, as you please
Pour down torrents from the skies
Till the rain clouds of Kaupea appears
