Ua Hiki No Me Au - Traditional

A heaha ka hana ka ʻōpua
Hoʻolai o ke ahiahi
E ʻi mai ana no iaʻu la
Ka ʻiʻini pau ʻole a ka puʻuwai

Hui:
Ua hiki no me au
Keʻala o ka vabine
E ake ana no ʻike la
I ka nani o nā pua

Ua ʻupu mai ka manaʻo la
Kuʻu hoa hoʻoheno ahiahi
A he ʻole ka maliu ʻia mai la
Ua pulu i ka hunahuna kai


What does the cloud do
As it remains quiet in the evening
It seems to be telling me
Of an endless desire in the heart

Chorus:
It is all right with me
She enjoys the fragrance of the verbena
I am anxious to see
The beauty of the flowers

A thought comes
Of my sweet companion of the evening
But no attention is paid to me
She is drenched by the sea spray
