A Tribute to Moe Keale: Song Lyrics 

Aia i Hi`ikua, i Hi`ialo
Kîhei de Silva  ~ Music: Moe Keale
Internet Spelling: Kihei de Silva

 

Hâlâwai akula ka mana`o me `oe
I ka hoehoene a ke kai.

He kai `olohia, he kai hi`ilei
Aia i hi`ikua,  i  hi`ialo.

E aloha mai ia`u e Hônaunau
Ke na`û  na`û  lâ  kamali`i.

He ali`i  ka la`i, he haku ke Aloha
`O `imi o nalowale a loa`a.

My thoughts go to meet you
In the soft singing sea.

A tranquil sea, a lei carrying sea
Where one is borne on the back, borne in the arms.

Look on me kindly, Hônaunau
Where children are chanting na`û to the sun.

Where peace is a chief, where lord is a lord
That which was lost is now found.
