Ka Uluwehi o Ke Kai

Plants of the Sea We are learning this Hula 'auna song in Module 1 to practice our hula dance moves Ka Uluwehi o Ke Kai Words & Music by Edith Kanakaole Listen it here He hoʻoheno kē ʻike aku Ke kai moana nui lā Nui ke aloha e hiʻipoi nei Me ke ʻala o ka līpoa He līpoa i pae i ke one Ke one hinuhinu lā Wela i ka lā kē hehi aʻe Mai manaʻo he pono kēia Hoʻokohu kohu e ka limu kohu Ke kau i luna ō nā moku la ʻO ia moku ʻula la e hō ʻOni ana i ʻōi ʻaneʻi Haʻina mai ka puana Ka līpoa me ka limu kohu Hoapili ʻoe me ka pāhe'e ʻAnoni me ka līpalu Such a delight to see The great big ocean So familiar and very cherished With its fragrance of the lîpoa (1) It is lîpoa which washed ashore Onto the shiny white sand Hot from the heating sun as you step on it Don't think that this is fun How enticing is the display of limu kohu Atop the rocks Enticing one to pick them As they sway to and fro Let the story be to...
