Ua ku’i-ku’i wale a ha’ina[8] na ihu;
Ua ka i ka u me ka waimaka,
I ke kula o Lualua-lei,[9] e!
Ku’u lei aloha no olua no, e!
TRANSLATION
I stand ahigh on Poha-kea;
The dog of storm strips off his robe;
A zephyr fans yon heated plain of
Miki-kala and Puha-maló:—
Wild strife ’tween the man and the Sea breeze:
