O the rising billows, O the falling billows, 



O the overwhelming billows 



In Kahiki.

For this death by you, O Lono.

O Lono of the night, 



O Lono of the thunder, 

 30. O Lono of the lightning, 



O Lono of the heavy rain, 



O Lono of the terrible, divine face. 



O Lono, O Lono with restless eyes. 



Ah, fly to the northern sea, 

 35. Ah, fly to the southern sea ; 



To the eastern sea. 



To the dark shore, to the white shore, 



To the dark moon, to the clear moon,

O Naka, Kualakai, 



O Kama, O shell-fish clinging to the cliffs, 



O Ku. altar head.

Where were deposited the words of Pii,
