He Aloha Mele - Hawiian Love Song
He aloha mele pretty hoku
Sending down a special little twinkle for your brown eyes
Your pretty lovely brown eyes
In the still of the night all the stars are shining bright
For your brown eyes
He aloha mele elohe I kamakani
Gentle breeze whispering haunting melodies to you softly
With the grace of her hands
She can tell you that a star only glitters at the setting of the sunset
With the grace of her hands
She can tell you that a wind only blows when no mountainside is there
To touch her
Now there's a sun and a moon talking story
Telling tales about a new day
It's gonna be a nice day
Now the moon is shining bright and the sun will rise again to start a new day
He aloha mele
He aloha mele
He aloha mele
