(Beautiful Kaua`i) - Words & music by Lizzie Alohikea

Sorry i only sang four verses cuz i dont know the rest by heart yet. lol


Source: Mana Collection - This is a mele pana or place-name song for the island of Kaua`i. Nohili in the 2nd verse is known today as Barking Sands. The old Hawaiians called it "ke oni kani a o Nohili" or the sounding sands of Nohili. The dry weather causes a dull whoofing sound when one steps on the sand. Verse 3, Mapuana is beyond Hanalei, a place named for the youngest sister of the wahine seeking La`iekawai. Wai`ânapanapa. Edited by E. Hines Music clip by Lani Lee
