Ku’u Ipo Ku`u Aloha Poina `Ole (Ida’s Hula) - by Ida Alicante & John Noble


`Auhea wale `oe e ku`u aloha
Ku`u ipo ho`oheno o ke aumoe


I laila ho`i `oe e `ike iho
I ka nani o ia pua e moani nei


Ka uwea honehone o ka makemake
Hä`upu a`e `oe a`o wau ia


Ha`ina `ia mai ana kapuana
Ku`u ipo ku`u aloha poina `ole


Heed, oh my beloved
My cherished sweetheart of the eve


It is there you behold
The beauty of that blossom that wafts its fragrance


The sweet call of desire
For you rmemeber that `tis I


Tell the refrain
My sweetheart, my unforgettable love
