Wahine 'Ilikea from Coconut Postcard by Na Hilahila

Wahine ʻIlikea - by Dennis Kamakahi
Hui:
Pua kalaunu ma ke kai
ʻO Honouli Wai
Wahine ʻilikea i ka poli ʻo Molokaʻi
Nō ka heke

Nani wale nō nā wailele ʻuka
O Hina ʻo Hāhā ʻo Moʻoloa
Nā wai ʻekolu i ka uluwehiwehi
ʻO Kamalō i ka mālie

Nani wale nō ka ʻāina Hālawa
Home hoʻokipa a ka malihini
ʻĀina uluwehi i ka noe ahiahi
Ua lawe mai ka makani Hoʻolua
Chorus:
Crown flower by the shore
Of Honouli Wai
Fair skinned woman in the bosom of Molokaʻi
Is the best

Beautiful waterfalls of the upland
Hina, Hāhā and Moʻoloa
The three waters in the verdant overgrowth
Of Kamalō, in the calm

Beautiful is the land, Hālawa
Hospitable home to the visitors
Land verdant, in the evening mist
Brought by the wind of Hoʻolua
