“Alas, thou art my bosom companion, my love!

My companion of the cold watery home of Hilo.

I am from Hilo,

From the rain that pelts the leaves of the bread-fruit of Pi-i-honua;

For we live at the bread-fruit trees of Malama.

Love is shown by the tears,

Love is the friend of my companion,

My companion of the thick forests of Pana-ewa, [[105]]

Where you and I have trod,

Our only fellow-traveller our love.
