Ke Aloha O Kāua - John K. Almeida

Pehea ke aloha o kāua ʻeā
Ke aloha hoʻoheno i ka poli pumehana
ʻO ka hana mau ihola nō ia ʻeā
ʻO ka hoʻolalelale i ka houpo

Hui:
Me he kanaka ala ke aloha
ʻAlo aʻe nō ʻoe e noho mai ana

I aniani kū kou aloha ʻeā
A i hoa kūkā no mi nei
Ilihia wale au i kou nani ʻeā
Ohaoha minoʻaka ʻoluʻolu lamalama

Mālama ʻia iho ke aloha ʻeā
I kuleana like ai kāua
Maikaʻi ke aloha o ka ipo ʻeā
Hana maeʻole i ka puʻuwai
This love of ours is something, isn’t it?
Love bringing warmth to the bosom
It simply happens all the time, doesn’t it?
Our hearts jump for joy

Chorus:
Love is like a person
You try to find it, but it still finds you

Let your love be a mirror
And a companion for me to chat with
I am overcome by your beauty, truly
Inviting looks, sweet smile, glowing complexion

You must nurture this love
Shared only by us
The love of a sweetheart is truly wonderous
Always active in the heart
