Source: David Chung - This mele is presented the way it was originally composed in 1949. The employees of the old Kona Inn produced a Hawaiian show, Tuesday and Thursday nights to entertain friends and guests. The composer was a bell hop at the hotel earning 26 cents an hour. He wrote this song for the 6 hula dancers/fellow employees that first performed this hula with the ipu. Recorded by Kealoha Kalama, Kahauanu Lake Trio. Translated by David Chung.
