A Tribute to Moe Keale: Song Lyrics

Lîhau
Kîhei de Silva ~ Music: Moe Keale

Ke Lîhau mai nei nô `oe
I ka `oliliko wai a ka ua.

Ua kâua mai `oe ia`u
E noho a li`u me `oe.

Noe wale mai nei ke Aloha
He Lîhau i ka welelau pali.

E ukali mai ana ka la`i
Ka hilina`i a Makanikeoe
Eia lâ `o Makanikeoe.

The gentle Lîhau adorns you
In the liquid sparkling of rain.

Once you gently detained me and asked
That I linger a while.

Now love alights like a soft mist
A cooling Lîhau rain at the pali's very limits.

Contentment will soon attend us,
The abiding trust of Makanikeoe
Yes, here it is: peaceful love.
