I Lanikai - Nancy Gustafsson |
|
Kau mai la i luna o ma healani, Ua hula kaua i ke one kea, Pukukui kaua i ke ahiahi, E ʻuhene la a pili kaua i Lanikai Aia koʻu manaʻo i Lanikai I laila kaua i nanea ai, I ka pa konane a ka mahina, Haʻawi au i koʻu aloha ia ʻoe i Lanikai |
The moon above us was shining bright, While we were dancing on sand so white, So close together 'neath the evening sky, Oh, what a joy to be with you at Lanikai My thoughts are often at Lanikai, Relaxed together, just you and I, The moon was shining high in the sky, I gave my love away to you at Lanikai |
