Moani Ke `Ala - by Prince William Pitt Leleiohoku
`Auhea o moani ke `ala Hoapili o mi nei A he aha kau hana e pâweo nei E ka makani Pu`ulena     Hui: Kuhi au a he pono kêia Au e ho`apa`apa mai nei E wiki mai `oe i pono kâua I `olu ho`i au e ke hoa     Ho`ohihi aku au e `ike lâ I ka wai mâpunapuna Rain Tuahine pi`o ânuenue `Oia uka `iu`iu     Eia ho`i au ua wehi Ua li`a ke onaona La wai `ona a ka lehua Wai mükîkî a ka manu	Where are you my wind-borne fragrance My dearest, my closest companion Why are you avoiding me Like the wind named Pu`ulena     Chorus: I thought all was well between us Why do you keep me waiting Hurry so we may be together And I`ll be pleased my dear companion     I am longing to see The bubbling spring The Tuahine rain, the rainbow's arch In that distant upland     Here am I all bedecked Thrilled by the fragrance And sweet honey of lehua flowers Honey sipped by the birds
