The voice of man is forbidden ; 



Here is the sonl within Kuhi-wai-niaka- 



lani ; 

 15. The soul within the smooth tones of 



the god. 

 Here are the sacred signs of the 



assembly : 

 The voice of thunder bursts forth ; 

 Flashing are the rays of the lightning; 

 The earthquake shakes the earth ; 

 20. The smoky cloud and the rainbow 



appeareth ; 

 The heavy rain and high wind prevails ; 

 The whirlwinds sweep beneath the earth ; 

 Rocks adjoining the streams are moved ; 

 The red mountain-streams rush to 



the sea. 

 25. Here are the waterspouts ; 



Tumbled about are the cluster clouds 



of heaven ; 

 Gushing forth are the springs in the 



cHflfs. 

 One eye has the god ; 

 Two, four eyes, to see clearly behind him. 

 30. Greatly revered be the voice of my god 



in the heavens. 

 It has been inspired within Papa-iakea, 

 Dwelling within the Maka-kolu-kolu-kahi. 

 The kapu of Lono reaches to Kahiki, 

 It goes to overthrow the kapu of Kahai, 

 35. Sacrificing the kapu of Kahai on the altar ; 

 It has fallen and tumbled in confusion. 

 Dead are the fish, fallen in their flight ; 

 Fallen disfigured all through Kahiki ; 

 Kahai is stirring up the pelting rain : 

 40. Kahai is beating the surface of the earth. 

 Here is Lono the bone of salvation and 



glory : 

 The bone placed in the clear sky. 

 Indistinct is the voice of the god. 

 Indistinct through the single-breasted surf. 

 45. My god was shark-born ; 



Shark-born in [the month] of Hinaiaeleele. 

 May I be saved by my fullness of prayer ! 

 Saved by the life-offering! 

 Saved by my devotion ! 

 50. By thee, O god I 



Kapu ka leo o ke kanaka ! 



Eia kahoaka iloko o Kulu--wai-maka-lani, 



15. O kahoaka iloko o ka iwi laumania o ke 

 Akua. 

 Eia ka hoaik)na kapu o ka Aha ; 

 Poha mai ka leo o ka hekili ; 

 O mai ka maka o ka uwila ; 

 Nauwe mai ke olai i ka honua ; 



20. Iho mai ka alewalewa me ke anuenue; 

 Mele ino ka ua me ka makani ; 

 W'ili ka puahiohio ilalo o ka honua ; 

 Kaa ka pohaku-pili o ke kahawai ; 

 Iho ka omaka-wai-ula i ka nioana. 



25. Eia ka wai-pui-lani ; 



Ke hiolo nei ka pae-opua i ka lani ; 

 lluai ka wai-puna i ka pali, 

 Akahi maka o ke Akua ; 

 Alna, aha maka i lele pono ka ike ma ke 

 kua. 



30. Hoano nui ka leo o ko'u akua i ka lani. 

 Hahano o mai iloko o Papa-ia-kea, 

 Noho mai iloko o ka Makakolukolukahi. 

 Hoi ke kapu o Lono i Kahiki. 

 Hoi aku la e kulai i ke kapu o Kahai. 



35. Kan i ka lele ke kapu o Kahai, 



Hina e hio iloko o ka pilikua. 



Make ka ia, moe i ka naholo ; 



Hina kikepakepa iloko o Kahiki; 



I loolale Kahai i ka paka o ka ua ; 

 40. Hahau Kahai i ka papa o ka moku. 



Eia Lono ka iwi kaola o ka Hiwa ; 



Ka iwi kau iloko o ka alaneo. 



Paee mai ka leo o ke Akua, 



Paee mai iloko o ka nalu alo kahi ; 



45. Ua hanau-mano ko'u akua ; 



Hanau mano iloko o Hinaiaeleele. 



E ola a'u i ka'u waihona-pule ! 



E ola i ka .\lana ola ! 



E ola i ka'u pulapula ! 

 50. Ia oe e ke Akua !
