Nohili E - Muriel Amalu

Noenoe mai ana iaʻu
I ke aloha ʻo ka mokihana
A he hana maʻa ʻole iaʻu
I ke aloha e hana nei
 
Hui:
Nohili e
E ke one kani
E ʻuhene nei
I ka poli
 
Wehiwehi Polihale
I ka lau ʻo ka pahapaha
I ka lele o ka ʻehukai
Pōhina lua i nā pali
 
Nani wale ka ʻikena
I ka wai koni i ka ʻili
I ka wai kaulana
Neia uka uluwehiwehi
A misty, foggy feeling comes to me
For the love of the mokihana
(This feeling) is unfamiliar to me
This love that is happening
 
Hui:
Nohili,
The barking Sands
A merry tune
For the heart
 
How festive is Polihale
With the lushness of pahapaha (seaweed)
Where the sea spray seems to leap
Like two mists that creep upon the cliffs
 
Always beautiful
Water that makes my skin tingle
This famous water
That comes from the lush mountains
