Kou Maka Uʻi
- by Henry Makua, Sr. |
Haliʻa au, i kou maka uʻi, ʻeā E lilo ana ʻoe, i loko o kuʻu puʻuwai Aloha au, i kou maka palu palu, ʻeā E huli hele nei, me ka aloha poinaʻole ʻAuhea ʻoe, me kou maka onaona, ʻeā E hoʻi mai ʻoe, a noho me iʻau e pili Haʻina mai ana ka puana, ʻeā I lilo ana ʻoe, i kuʻu puʻuwai pumehana |
I adore, your pretty eyes dear You'll be mine to cherish in my bosom Your charming eyes, so soft Searching for my return with everlasting love Where are you with your naughty eyes Return to me, with me to stay always Thus ends my song my pretty eyes For you'll be mine along in my heart |
