Pua Hone
(Pulama)
By: Dennis Kamakahi
O ‘oe ka wahine a ke aloha
You are the woman that I love
I laila i ka uluwehi
There in the lush verdure is
Ku‘u pua hone i ka la‘i
My honey flower in the calm
Honi ‘ana i ke hau o Makiki
Kissed by the dew of Makiki
‘O wau kou aloha i
I am your love
Ka noe kuahiwi
In the mountain mist
He u‘i no ‘oe i ke kula
You are a beauty on the plains
I wili ‘ia me ka
Entwined with the sacred
‘Ie‘ie o leilono
‘Ie’ie vine of Leilono
Ha‘ina mai ana ka puana
This ends my story
Ku‘u pua hone i ka la‘i
For my honey flower in the calm
He nani maoli no
A true beauty, indeed
