Hi'ilawe Lyrics – John Cruz

Hi'ilawe Text

---

Kûmaka ka `ikena iâ Hi`ilawe
All eyes are on Hi'ilawe
Ka papa lohi mai a`o Maukele
In the sparkling lowlands of Maukele

Pakele mai au i ka nui manu
I have not been trapped by the gossip
Hau wala`au nei puni Waipi`o
Chattering everywhere in Waipi'o

`A`ole nô wau e loa`a mai
I am not caught
A he uhiwai au no ke kuahiwi
For I am the mist of the mountains

He hiwahiwa au na ka makua
I am the darling of the parents
A he lei `â`î na ke kupuna
And a lei for the necks of the grandparents

No Puna ke `ala i hali `ia mai
The fragrance is wafted from Puna
Noho i ka wailele a`o Hi`ilawe
And lives at Hi'ilawe waterfall

Ha`ina `ia mai ana ka puana
Tell the refrain
Kûmaka ka `ikena iâ Hi`ilawe
All eyes are on Hi'ilawe
