Another sweet song for Liliuokalani, 1897.

MAKALAPUA.

O Makalapua ulumahiehie,
O ka lei o Kamakaeha,
No Kamakaeha ka lei o na Liawahine,
No na wahine kihene pua.

Hui:—E lei ho–i e Liliulani e,
E lei ho–i e Liliulani e.

Haihai pua Kamani pauku pua Ki-ki,
I lei hoowehi no ka wahine,
I walea ai i ka waokele,
Iuka o Omaonahele.

Lei Kaala i ka ua a ka Naulu,
Hoolue ihola ilalo o Haleauau,
Ka ua lei kakooula i ke pili,
I pili ia e ka mauu nene me ke kupukupu.

Lei aku i na hala o Kekele,
Na hala moe ipo o Malailua,
Ua maewa wale i ke oho o ke Kawelu,
Ka lei Kamakahala a ka ua i Waahila.
