Note 214 — A Wakea Creation Chant.
Reading edition
O Halulu, o Hiapo, two fabled birds which Kamehameha worshiped, and Kamehameha’s feathered god, Kaili, when the feather sprung up in the forehead of the god, the people thought it a sign of ability to conquer; o ka makia, that which fastens together, as with a pin or nail; o ka makia o Kamehameha, he held together the islands; lele huna, falling, as drops of rain; i ka apana, falling to pieces. ↑
