Oh when i here the strings of that sweet alekoli And sitting from a far of guitar heleno When leliue makes you sway in the moonlight I know the reason why fair hawaii haunts your soul Oh when i here the strings of that sweet alekoki And sitting from a far of guitar heleno When leliue makes you sway in the moonlight I know the reason why fair hawaii haunts your soul The lovely blue lit sky and the sapphie of ocean The flashing white of cloud and the waves foaming crest The many shades of green from the plain to the mountain With all the brightest hues of the rainbow were blessed I hear the swoosh of rain as it sweeps down the valley I hear the sound of wind as it sighs through the tree I hear the crash of waves on the rocks and the beaches I hear the hissing surf and the boom of the sea I love to dance and sing of the charts of hawaii And from a joyful heart sing aloha to you In every note ill tell of the spell of my islands For then i know that you will be in love with them too I love to dance and sing of the charts of hawaii And from a joyful heart sing aloha to you In every note ill tell of the spell of my islands For then i know that you will be in love with them too For then i know that you will be in love with them too
