“Yes, I have a song,” Hiiaka answered, to the surprise of all.

“Let us have it, then; go on!” said Pele.

Then the little girl, having first decorated all of her sisters with the wreaths, beginning with Pele, sang as follows:

Ke ha’a la Puna i ka makani;

Ha’a ka ulu hala i Keaau;

Ha’a Haena me Hopoe;

Ha’a ka wahine,

Ami i kai o Nana-huki, la—

Hula le’a wale,

I kai o Nana-huki, e-e!
