Click Title to Access Melody

Hali`i ka moena moe tahaua la
Ua nani me ka Tuahine la
Hei hei ana la

Ki`ei aku la maka puka itey la
E huelo pôpoki la
E iho ana la

Kaulana mai nei ao hame pila la
O ka ipu kukui
Mâlamalama la

A ha ha`ina `ia mai ana ka puana la
Hali`i e ka ta moena la
Moe tahaua la



The patchwork quilt we sleep on
The beauty of the Tuahine rain
Ensnared

Look through the hole
The tail of the cat
Descending

Beware of the famous stringed instrument
Of the lamp
Shining

Tell the story
The patchwork quilt
We sleep on
