aloha iaʻu

Ua aloha ʻo ia iaʻu me he mea lā ʻo wau kona ʻuhane uē ʻole, ua ʻeha kona ʻuhane, a ua kokoke e pio, ʻaʻole ʻike kēlā kanaka ʻilihune ua hāʻawi aku koʻu mau lima iā ia i kukui.

I kēlā me kēia puka ʻana i waho e kīkēkē ana au i kona puka a hīmeni i kahi mele nona, ʻaʻohe au, ʻo wau paha ka kulu ua i ʻike ʻole ʻia, e kau ana ma luna oʻu a ʻike ʻole iaʻu, he manu paha ia. Noho ʻo ia ma ka ʻāina holoʻokoʻa, ʻo ka lewa wale nō paha, he manu a me ka mahina a me ka pō lōʻihi, ke hōʻoluʻolu nei ʻoe iā ia me ka lāʻau e lawe ana i nā pua mau?!

Ke kolo wale mai nei oe e ka'u manu, me he mea la a'u i hoao ai e huna mai ko'u uhane aku, aka, makehewa.
