95. Alas ! my companion ; 



Woe betide me thy comforter, 



Woe betide me thy pride. 



Alas ! my precious object, 



Alas! the object that is not obtainable in a 

 day. 

 100. .\las thou! 



Alas ! our separation. 



Alas ! thou my guide in the untrodden path, 



My follower in the lonely path ; 



My companion that traverses the places 

 where the winds are diverted ; 

 105. My companion from the shade of the 

 bread-fruit trees at Lele ; 



My companion from the land where the 

 kiowea sings ; 



My companion from the paupili rain of 

 Lahaina ; 



My companion ; 



My husband in the path of Honomaele, 

 no. Alas thou my companion from the scorch- 

 ing heat of Lele : 



My companion in the path and the plain ; 



My companion is chilled by the kapa. 



My companion in the cold shrinking gar- 

 ment. 



Alas ! my husband. 

 115. O my companion in the cold rain, 



Thou seest the land : 



Thou seest the sand, the pebbles. 



And the clear sun. 



And the kou trees of Molakia, 

 120. -Vnd of Pelekane: greetings be to the peo- 

 ple thereof. 



Thou seest the sand and the water of 

 Pahoa, 



And the shade of the breadfruit trees. 



Alas ! my companion ; 



Alas, O my friend ! 

 125. Alas, my companion from the floating 

 house of the foreigner : 



My companion from the amusements of 

 Kahiki : 



My companion high in the esteem of the 

 people of the land ; 



My companion that observes the laws 

 thereof. 



Alas, indeed thou ! How great is my love 

 for thee.
