Hooheno no Puuhale.
Aia i Puuhale
Ka eha a ka manao
O Sweet Emalia
Kuu aloha ia
Elua maua
I Mauna Tamara
O ka alelehuna [?]
Pohai a ka manu
Kupanaha o iala
I ka ana mai
Eia me a’u
Ka Iwi o Heneri
Okipau ke kolohe
Kiina i ka liko
Ai kapu a ka manu
Iiwi Polena
Eia mai au
Ka Iwi o Heneri
Puuwai hopo ole
A o Rokalia
Haina ka puana
O kuu lei hulu
O Sweet Emalia
Kuu aloha ia.
[This mele for Sweet Emalia, Emalia Kaihumua, Emily Kaihumua, might sound more familiar to you if you switched out "Aia i Puuhale" with "Aia i Hilo One". And yes, this is yet another example of why the original newspapers need to be rescanned clearly!]
