ALOHA NAMAHANA Lyrics

Keli'i sings:

E ku'u aloha e,
Auhea la 'oe
...Pu 'olo waimaka a ke aloha

(Translation)

My beloved, I am calling to you,
Have you really gone away?
...Your love brings tears to the eyes

Charles chants:

Eo e Namahanaikaleleokalani...auhea 'oe?
O'oe ke lei hie a na kupuna,
Ka puna a Mauna 'Ala,
Auwe ke aloha e...auwe!
Nau no teia himeni no na mea
i ha'awi mai ia matou!
Ka 'ike, ka mana'o i'o, ka mana'o lana,
a kou aloha nui!
Aloha no...Aloha no...Aloha no...

(Translation)
I call out to you Namahanaikeleleokalani...
where have you gone?
You are the cherished lei of the kupuna,
A spring at Mauna 'Ala,
Alas our love has gone...
This song is yours alone for all you have given us!
Your insight, your faith, your goodness,
and your great love!
Our love to you...
