A ma-ú na pu’u
E óla-olá, nei.
E kulipe’e nui ai-ahua. [366]
E Pele, e Pele!
E Pele, e Pele!
Huai’na! huai’na!
Ku ia ka lani,
Pae a huila!
Footnote 364:[ (return) ] Kalakaua, for whom all these fine words are intended, could no more claim kinship with Ku-nui-akea, the son of Kau-i-ke-aouli, than with Julius Cæsar.
Footnote 365:[ (return) ] Hale-mau-mau. Used figuratively of the mouth, whose hairy fringe—moustache and beard—gives it a fancied resemblance to the rough lava pit where Pele dwelt. The figure, to us no doubt obscure, conveyed to the Hawaiian the idea of trumpeting the name and making it famous.
