E Ho`i I Ka Pili - Words & music by Keali`i Reichel
E ho`i i ka pili E ku`u ipo. E nene`e mai, e nanea mai E ke aloha, E ho`onipo kâua He lei wehi `oe No ku`u nui kino. Lei `ala ho`ônaona lua i ka poli E ke aloha, E hanu lipo kâua Ka nehe a ke kai O Kahakuloa Kai ko`o hâku`i pi`i ka pali E ke aloha, Pulupê iho kâua Puana `ia mai E ku`u ipo. E nene`e mai. e nanea mai E ke aloha, E ho`onipo kâua	Come here to me, My darling love. Cuddle close, Relax my beloved, And let us make love You are like a lei, For me to wear. Incomparably fragrant At my heart, my dearest, Let us deeply kiss The sea at Kahakuloa, Rumbles on the rocks nd splashes up the cliffs. Oh my love, We are drenched Let it be told, My love, my darling. Cuddle close, Relax my beloved, And let us make love
