Līhau
words by Kīhei de Silva, music by Moe Keale
Ke Līhau mai nei nō ʻoe
I ka ʻoliliko wai a ka ua
Ua kāua mai ʻoe iaʻu
E noho a liʻu me ʻoe
Noe wale mai nei ke aloha
He Līhau i ka welelau pali
E ukali mai ana ka laʻi
Ka hilinaʻi a Makanikeoe
Eia lā ʻo Makanikeoe

"Līhau."
Kīhei de Silva and Moe Keale collaborated on this wedding song for their friends Mary Faurot and Damon Pescaia. Their old-sounding waltz explains how love has settled on bride and groom like a soft mist, a cooling Līhau rain at the pali's highest point. The mele then invokes Makanikeoe, a guardian-god of peace and love. "E ukali mai ana ka la'i / Ka hilina'i a Makanikeoe / Eia lā 'o Makanikeoe" -- Contentment will soon attend you, the abiding trust of Makanikeoe; yes, here it is, the love of Makanikeoe.
