E Kuʻu Lei

My kumu hula, Doric Yaris, taught this mele to our Papa Puakenikeni on April 11, 2013. This version is performed by The Brothers Cazimero on their "The Sound of the Sea Surrounds Me" Album released in 1986.
E kuʻu lei, e kuʻu lei
Aloha lei makamae
Eia au ke kali nei
E hoʻi mai kāua e pili
Kou aloha kaʻu e hiʻipoi nei
Na kau a kau na kau a kau
E kuʻu lei e kuʻu lei
Aloha lei makamae
Nou hoʻokahi a liʻa aloha
A hea la ʻoe maliu mai
E kuʻu lei e kuʻu lei
My lei, my lei
Precious lei of love
Here, I wait for you
Return to me so we can be together
Our love is mine to cherish
For all times
My lei, my lei
Precious lei of love
My only desire
I call to you, heed (me)
My lei, my lei
