Ka Lehua O Kīlauea - Words & music by: E. Kealiʻi Blaisdell


Kīlauea i ka laʻi
Wehi i ka ua
He maikaʻi wale no
I ka ua a ka Moani

Ike i ka nani
Aʻo Kīlauea
Puʻia i keʻala
ʻOna ka lehua mamo

Haʻina ʻia mai
Ana ka puana
Aʻo Kīlauea
Ame ka lehua mamo


Lehua Mamo
Kīlauea in the calm
Adorned in the rain
So perfectly beautiful
In the Moani showers

See the beauty
Of Kīlauea
Perfumed by the fragrance
Of the yellow lehua

Told now
Is the story
Of Kīlauea
And the yellow lehua
