Of unsurpassed beauty Is my heavenly adornment You are a finely crafted kilohana That I shall always cherish Comforting my heart Bringing warmth to the cold.
I can smile when it’s raining And touch the warmth of the sun I hear children laughing In this place that I love.
Love is everlasting Because of your generous heart You are a heavenly beauty For me to always treasure Existing in tranquility Flawless there in the calm.

If I Had Words
If I had words to make a day for you I’d sing you a morning, golden and new. I would make this day last for all time Give you all night deep in moonshine.

E Ô Mai Keali’i Reichel
Kâua i ka wai Wai olohia o Kahualoa Kokôhi I ka wai puhia E ku’u aloha, e ô mai.

Pûhemo i ka wai Wai welawela hô’eha i ka ‘ili E inu i ka wai a kena E ku’u aloha, e ô mai.
Translation:
We two in the waters The sighing waters of Kahualoa Hold back that driven current O my love, answer me.
Restrain those waters Surging wellsprings, stirring the heart Glide on those waters as they sparkle O my dear one, acknowledge me.
Then, release the torrent Waters of passion, burning the skin Indulge until you are satiated O my beloved, respond to me
