Na Ka Pueo - by Samuel Kalani Kaea
Na ka Pueo kahi ke aloha Nênê `aukai o Maui Kowelo ko hae Hawai`i Ma ka `ilikai a`o Mâmala Malama iho `oe ke aloha Kuleana no`u e hiki aku au Ha`ina `ia mai ka puana Na ka Pueo kahi ke aloha	Pueo, Hawaiian Owl	The Pueo is my one love The seafaring gull of Maui The Hawaiian flag flutters Over the surface of Mamala Bay Take care of my love That's mine until I return   The story is told Of the ship, Pueo that I love
Source: Bill Ali`iloa Lincoln - The Pueo Kahi was a ship named for a village near Hana, Maui. A ship, boat or canoe in Hawaiian mele is a poetic reference to a woman. Older versions begin the song "No Pueo kahi ke aloha".
