[English]
|
|
The windmill just stands still
|
No water comes swirling up
|
|
You are a constant reflection of me
|
My companion, always conversing with me
|
|
Beloved indeed is MA´lA®lele
|
When the clouds swirl, the ocean is stormy
|
|
Beloved is the koae bird from
|
The waterfall of Wai'A´hinu
|
|
Just don't you forget
|
This attractive peacock
|
|
Tell the refrain
|
No water comes swirling up
|
