Kalani Pe'a Lyrics - E Walea


HE LEI ALOHA- NO HILO

NA KALANI PEʻA & DEVIN KAMEALOHA FORREST

Hīhīmanu Hilo i kuʻu pua

I ka pua loke kau i ka ‘ōnohi

Hiaʻai ka manaʻo i ke kiu

Ka makani hiwahiwa o ka ‘āina

Bridge: Pūlamahia ka huahekili

I pili i ka poli a hemoʻole

E ʻole ou malu lani lā ē

‘Aʻohe anu, ‘aʻohe māʻeʻele

Ua pakele mai kahaone

I ka popoʻi mai o nā nalu

‘Aʻole nō e paulilo ana

I ke aʻa kūpaʻa o ka ‘āina

Hāʻina ka puana aʻi lohe ‘ia

Kou inoa hanohano (kau) i ka ‘iu

‘Iuʻiu kūlana o ia pua

‘O Naupaka nō i ka wēkiu

Magnificent is Hilo because of my beloved flower

My cherished rose whom always captures the eye

Kiu wind entralls the mind

It is the precious wind of this land

Bridge: The naupaka is cherished

Held close to the heart and immovable

It is because of the protection you give

There is no biting bitter cold

The sands are saved

From the incessant crashing of the waves

They will not be completely taken away

Because of the firm roots of this land

Tell the refrain so that all may hear

Of your famous name placed on high

This flower has a lofty position

Naupaka in the highest peak

O people of the land rise up, and rise up

O Hawaiian descendants rise up, and rise up together

And the younger generations move forward and drink the bitter water

The victory lives always, O people of the land

O descendents of Hawaiʻi, rise up, rise together

Chorus

Acquire, acquire and receive

The rights, rights forever

Fight for the rights, O people of the land

Acquire, acquire and receive

The rights, rights forever

The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness

The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness

O islands of Hawaiʻi rise up and rise together

O numerous multitude and masses rise up and rise together

From Hawaiʻi of Keawe to Kauaʻi of Manokalanipō

Steadfast always, steadfast always

O islands of Hawaiʻi

O numerous multitudes and masses rise up and rise up together

HE WEHI ALOHA

NA KALANI PEʻA & DEVIN KAMEALOHA FORREST

Ua kili iho mai he wehi aloha

E ka ua kēhau anuhea

‘O hea kāua e luana aʻe?

I mau ka ‘olu o ka nui kino

Ua noa ka uka aʻo Waolani

E noenoe ai nei ʻohu kēhau

‘O ‘oe nō kuʻu wahi lani

E ohaoha ai ‘o Maunawili

Hui:

Ua wili, ua pili pono kāua

Ka ua kēhau wehi aloha

I Waolani ‘oe e luana aʻe

A ‘ike i ka nani ‘o Maunawili

2nd:

A ‘ike i ka nani ‘o Maunawili….

An adornment of love has rained gently down

It is the cool brisk misty rain

Where is it that we should go to enjoy?

So that the coolness of our entire being continues

The uplands of Waolani are free

Where this mist alights

You are my heavenly one

That makes Maunawili

Chorus:

We have been intertwined into one

The misty rain adornment of love

At Waolani you dwell

And see the beauty of Maunawili

2nd

And see the beauty of Maunawili…….

HANALEI I KA PILIMOE

NA KALANI PEʻA & DEVIN KAMEALOHA FORREST

Hiaʻā aʻe kuʻu wahi moe

Hiaʻai i ka nani ʻo Māhealani

Kōaniani mai e ka Moaʻe

Pā ʻolu i ke kula aʻo Waioli

ʻOliʻoli nō au e ʻike maka

Ka hulili o ka wai no Kaliko

He pua nō au i poni ‘ia

E ‘ike i ka laʻi ʻo Pilimoe

Hāʻina ‘ia mai ana ka puana

Lua ‘ole Hanalei i ka pō laʻi

My night is sleepless

Being enthralled by Māhealani

The Moaʻe wind blows softly

Blowing pleasantly on the plains of Waioli

I overjoyed from seeing

The shimmer of the waters of Kaliko

I am truly a specially chosen blossom

To witness the calm of this evening hour

Tell again the refrain

Hanalei is the best in the calm night

Great rainbows arch over Kaiolohia

The expanse lies calm

A gentle breeze caresses

The superior one moves steadily above and below

Hui:Malelewaʻa is exposed yet forbidden

Perfect is the piercing of the Hoʻolua wind

The two of us surprised by the Naulu’s shower

The superior one moves steadily above and below

The waves roll along at Mokapu

The ascent to delight is worth great effort

Hāʻupukele is where the ‘āhihi becomes drenched

The superior one moves steadily above and below

NOHO PAIPAI

NA JOHN K. ALAMEIDA

Pupue iho au i mehana

Hone ana ‘ouese i kuʻu poli

Me he ala nō e ‘ī mai ana

‘Auhea kuʻu lei rose lani

Malihini ‘oe, malihini au

Ma ka ihu kāua kamaʻāina

Inā ‘o you me aʻu

Kau pono i ka noho paipai

Hāʻina ‘ia mai ka puana

Hone ana ‘ouese i kuʻu poli

I crouched down to keep

The thought of my sweetie pressed to my bosom She seemed to be saying to me

Where is my wreath of red roses? You are a stranger, I am a stranger too

But when we kiss each other, we are friends If you were here with me

We would rock together on a rocking chair This is the end of my song

A dream of my sweetie pressed to my bosom

To call out, my Moku o Keawe, Hawaiʻi.

Vast land of the verdant beauty of Hawaiʻi

We observe the majestic Hualālai

Cumulus clouds hover upon us

Wafting it is the hīnano in serene beauty

It is calm, embraced by the chill of Māʻihi

‘Ihikapu, famous of the noble ones

Of the heavenly one, Kamehameha Nui

My body is warm from the first peak of the sun

The sun satisfies my entire body

I am deeply in love of my verdant land

My land is magnificent, oh Kona it is

The marvelous Kona, I call to you….

Covered in the blanket of snow, you are Poliʻahu

This warmth of love, she embraces us

The slopes are embraced by the snow

Structures are built around the guardian

Lightning and thunder occurs

To long for the love, we must cherish her forever

We call out to you Poliʻahu who sits amidst with beauty

The appealing guardian, the most heavenly one

Majestic Mauna Kea, oh you’re exquisite

The most appealing guardian, my heavenly one
