    The poem expresses sadness at parting from a loved one, with the speaker finding comfort in memories of time they spent together and vowing to reunite one day. The rain is personified as brushing through the forest on its way to some core or essence.

    Aloha 'Oe

    Haaheo ka ua i naa pali


    Ke nihi aela i ka nahele
    E uhai ana paha i ka liko
    Pua 'ahihi lehua o uka
    [Hui:]
    Aloha oe, aloha oe
    E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
    One fond embrace,
    A hoi ae au
    Until we meet again
    O ka halia aloha i hiki mai
    Ke hone ae nei i
    Kuu manawa
    O oe noo kau ipo aloha
    A loko e hana nei
    [Hui]

    Maopopo kuu ike i ka nani


    Naa pua rose o Maunawili
    I laila hiaia naa manu
    Mikiala i ka nani o ka lipo.
    [Hui]

    English translation

    Goodbye
    The rain proudly lulls1 by the cliff
    And quietly brushes through the forest2
    It hones in at the core:3
    The Lehua Flower of the vale.
    [Chorus:]
    Goodbye, goodbye
    The sweet and gentle one living in the distance
    One fond embrace
    I leave
    Until we meet again
    Fond memories bring me back
    And renew sweet ones
    Of times past
    Goodbye, my love
    You are mine regardless
    [Chorus]

    I realize your beauty


    The fragrant rose of Maunawili
    Right over there, by the lovebirds
    Drinking its nectar.
    [Chorus]
