Ka Wai A`o Namolokama (Interweaving, Bound Fast) - Alfred Alohikea


Kaulana wale ho`i `oe
Ka wai a`o Namolokama
`U`i `u`i `u`ina nei
Nâkolokolo i na pali
`Uhe `uhe `uhene ana

I ka nani i ke kuahiwi
He hiwahiwa wale `oe
A he milimili ho`i
Kilakila wale `oe
Kaulana i ke ki`eki`e
`O `oe a`o wau i laila
Ka wai kaulana o Namolokama

 

Famous are you
The water(fall)of Namolokama
Splash, splash, splashing
Roaring in the cliffs
Rollicking

In the beauty of the mountans
Precious indeed, are you
And truly beloved
Imposing indeed, are you
Famous for height
You and I were there
The famous water(fall) of Namolokama
