I kou hale, e;

E noho ana i ke kai o Kapeku;

E hoolono i ka uwalo, e!

TRANSLATION

A hala bunch, snatched by the wind

That blows from the medicine man,

Pushing the rain to Pua-lehei:

Cold is the traveler and soaking wet,

No friend to give welcome and cheer;

House empty—gone to the seashore;
