One of my favorite Keali'i Reichel songs. I apologize in advance for any mispronunciations as I do not speak the beautiful Hawaiian language. See below for translation to English.
I am playing this on my Lanikai 8-string tenor ukulele. This song makes me think of my loved ones and the peace I feel whenever I step onto the beaches and feel the tradewinds in my hair, feel the sand between my toes, see the tranquil crystal clear turquoise water and hear the surf. It rejuvenates me. I hope you like my rendition.
English Translation: We two in the water The sighing waters of Kahualoa Hold back that driven current O my love, answer me Restrain those waters Surging wellsprings, stirring the heart Glide on those waters as they sparkle O my love, acknowledge me Then, release the torrent Waters of passion, burning the skin Indulge until you are satiated O my beloved, respond to me
