Rev. Dennis Kamakahi’s - Pua Hone (Honey Flower) Lyrics

O `oe ka wahine a ke aloha
I laila i ka uluwehi
ku`u pua hone i ka la`i

Hone `ana i kehau o Makiki
`O wau kou aloha i ka noe kuahiwi

He u`i no `oe i ke kula
I wili `ia me ka `ie`ie o Leilono

Ha`ina mai ana ka puana
Ku`u pua hone i ka la`i
he nani maoli no

English:

You are the woman that I love
There in the lush verdure is
my honey flower in the calm

Kissed by the dew of Makiki
I am your love in the mountain mist

You are a beauty on the plains
Entwined with the sacred `ie`ie vine of Leilono

This ends my story
For my honey flower in the calm,
a true beauty, indeed
