Rain Kili Kilihune - Traditional

He aloha aʻe ana
Kahi wai o Kalihi
Ia wai kaulana i ka waha
Hiki kolo o ka ʻahihi

Hui:
Rain kili kilihune
Koʻiaweawe i ka nahele
Wai huʻi anu o ka uka
Anu hoʻi au a māeʻele

O ka hoa o kaua liʻiliʻi
Kilihune maila i uka
Kīheʻaheʻa i ka lau kukui
ʻOlu laʻi aʻo Kilohana

Hail to
Kalihi stream
That stream famous for the telling
Entwined by the ʻahihi

Chorus:
Rain, the wind blown spray
Moving lightly in the forest
Aching cold water of the upland
Makes me cold and numb

The pelting of the summer showers
Wind blown towards the mountain
Sparkles on the kukui leaves
Pleasant and peaceful at Kilohana
