Mālama mākou e wehe i ka paku o ka hilahila a ma kahi liʻiliʻi e nānā i ka wā e hiki mai ana. ʻAʻole pono kēia i nā mākau kūikawā, no ka mea, ua lawa ia e hoʻomanaʻo i nā kiko'ī nui o ka'ōpana a me ka loiloiʻana o ka naʻau, a laila e hoʻohana i nā weheweheʻana i kēia manawa.
No ke aha e moe ai ka iʻa ula?
He nui nā sonnets eʻike i kēia hihiʻo pō e like me ka waiwai nui o nā waiwai nui. No nā kaikamāhine, he hōʻailona kēia no keʻano mahalo i ka hoʻonuiʻana o kaʻikepili, hiki iā ia ke hana i ke kūʻai, a ua hōʻiliʻili ia no kekahi manawa lōʻihi. Akā, he hōʻailona ia no ka mare muaʻana me kekahi kanaka waiwai. No ka moeʻuhane i ka iʻaʻula i ka wai, i laila, e loaʻa koke ana iāʻoe ka lono maikaʻi, kahiʻoihanaʻoihana. Ināʻoe e lawaiʻa ma ka moeʻuhane, he'ōlelo ia e loaʻa iāʻoe kahi manawa, i mea e loaʻa ai iāʻoe ka uku.
No ke kanaka e kūʻai i ka iʻaʻula ma ka moeʻuhane,ʻo ia hoʻi, no ke aloha i ka makemake, ka hana ikaika a me ka ikaika, e hiki ke lilo i kahiʻoi akuʻoi aku ma kahiʻoihana. Ināʻikeʻia ka hihiʻo e kekahi kaikamahine, a laila e hālāwaiʻo ia me kahi kanaka nāna e hoʻololi nui i kona ola. ʻO ka hoʻomaʻemaʻeʻana i kahi iʻaʻulaʻula, he hana i kahi lōʻihi lōʻihi, e hiki ai ke hōʻoia i ka mālamalama maikaʻi loa no nā mana. ʻO ka moeʻuhane e hoʻomākaukau neiʻoe i kahi iʻa lawaiʻa, ke kūlana nei i ka holomua i kahi oʻoleʻa. Aia kekahi iʻaʻula ma ka moeʻuhane, a ma kahi kokoke e hiki iāʻoe ke kūʻai aku i kahi kūʻai maikaʻi a hele paha i ka'āina lōʻihi. No ka wahine maikaʻi, ua hoʻohiki ka moeʻuhane i ka mare muaʻana me kekahi kanaka mai ke kaiāulu kiʻekiʻe. ʻO ka moeʻuhane, kahi iʻikeʻia ai ka iʻaʻulaʻula, kēnā i nā waimaka a me nā pilikia e pili ana i kouʻohana. Inā i'ānaiʻia ka iʻa - he hōʻailonaʻino kēia, e kuhi ana i ka hāʻule o nā manaolana a pau. No kaʻikeʻana i ka iʻaʻeleʻele make, ma ka kokoke e hiki mai ana,ʻaʻole ia e kūpono i ka hopena, no ka mea, iʻole e lilo ia i meaʻole.
