Was singing and dancing and ho`omalimali |
|

Mama in her in her mu`umu`u and papa in his malo |
|
|
Greeting `aikane, pehea, mahalo |
|
|
|
Sister gathered flowers for a lei |
|
|
Brother watched the imu all of the day |
|
|
Soon the music boys began to play |
|
|
Mele old and new of Hawai`i nei |
|
|
|
The tables were loaded with plenty of kaukau |
|
|
`Opihi and salmon and steaming hot laulau |
|
|
We ate and talked stories until we were all pau |
