Lamentation for Lahainaluna.1 Love to you Lahainaluna, The chief parent of the Hawaiian Isles, The beautiful golden garment of the poor; The glory of the orphans. You are the one greatly thought of 5. By the new students from Hawaii to Kauai. We are happy over your everlasting beauty; Our minds are ever longing Just to see your honored home, And your beautiful golden fence. 10. O Lahainaluna, love to you, Where wise men have dwelt, There were our hearts made ever glad With the shady trees of your grounds Where your brethren encamp around thee. 15. O Lahainaluna, love to you, The shelter of the learned. You have found a new chief For the residents. From you have come forth 20. The honored men of the Hawaiian government; From your bosom there were sent out Deacons and disciples of the Lord. O Lahainaluna, I love you Who brought out the goodness of the Hawaiian Kingdom. 25. Where shall I find the one you long to see? Let us consider the learned men From Hawaii to Kauai. Is it right to have the flag half-masted By the Hawaiian Kingdom? 30. The sumach flowers turn toward the plain of Puopelu Resting safely with the breeze, the aa, Here we are the orphans, longing to be with thee. O Lahainaluna, I love thee, The breast of the orphans. 35. You are the kawelu (grass) at the cliff of Nuuanu; At Nuuanu, the dividing line of knowledge, Seeking for you but never finding you. There you are at the Isthmus of Darien, Overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. 40. O Lahainaluna, I love you. You are the sounding twine of the shoemaker; You are the sledge hammer of the blacksmith; You are the compass of the navigators; And the mud-hen singing at mid-night. 45. I heard a noise while asleep and awoke, O Lahainaluna, I love you. You were a hunch-back among the chiefs; You were the consulting companion of the two winds, The moae and the hauapepee. 50. They are the originators of the kona, To hide away your love Across to the stormy sea of Cape Horn. O Lahainaluna, I love you; Thou art the misty rain of Lilikoi 55. That is agitating my heart. You have seen Waialeale, You were delighted with the water of Haunu, Lovely Kaala sublime in its beauty, It was the beauty of the land, 60. You are the fragrant flower of Ainahau, that is kissed in all lands. In the midst of people, and the jungle of Africa. I love the lehua blooming on the plain, Satisfied in the sojourn that was blessed by the red rain, Murmuring at Kanehoa. 65. You was a friend in time of trouble at Lahainaluna, Just like the pervading of perfumes Flying over to the calm of Lele. I jumped to embrace you, but could not find you You were at Ieheulani. 70. Beautiful lies the field of Kaiwiula. O Lahainaluna, I love you, The greatest in the Kingdom of Hawaii nei. March 30, 1853. Kanikau no Lahainaluna.1 Aloha oe e Lahainaluna, Ka makua alii o ko Hawaii paeaina, Ke kapa gula nani o ka poe hune; Ka lei alii o na keiki makua ole. O oe ka mea i manao nui ia 5.

E Lahainaluna, e aloha oe. O ke kuaina kani ka oe a ka poe humu kamaa; O ka hamale kui hao ka oe a ka poe kui hao; O ke panana ka oe i waena o ka poe holomoku; O ka alae kani kuluaumoe ka oe. 45. Moe au a puoho lohe i ka halulu, E Lahainaluna, e aloha oe. O kahi kuapuu hele ka oe i waena o na ’lii; Ka hoa kuka ka oe o na makani elua. O ka moae a me ka hauapepee. 50. Na laua e hooluli ala o ke kona, I huna aku hoi i kou aloha I alo aku hoi i na lae ino o Kepahoni. E Lahainaluna, e aloha oe; Ka ua noe ka oe o Lilikoi 55. E hakoi lua nei ka puuwai. Ike aku la oe ia Waialeale. Walea aku la oe i ka wai o Haunu, Aloha Kaala he onaona i ka nani, He nani no no ka aina, 60.

Aloha ka lehua aki popohe i ke kula, I walea ka noho ana i ka hoopiha ia e ka ua ula, Ke nu mai la i Kanehoa. 65.
