Snow has a way of appearing with little notice, adorning Hawaiʻi’s majestic summits with a glistening, ephemeral beauty. Inspiration for a mele can appear just as quickly –but unlike snow, a composition’s beauty can live on forever. Part of this mele was composed within 10 minutes of
Kalani’s arrival in Hilo to sing for Hula Hālau ʻO Kamuela’s 2019 Miss Aloha Hula contestant, who received high honors for her performance. Kalani later added a verse and bridge to the song to complete it. ʻAʻahu Poliʻahu honors Poliʻahu and Lilinoe, the snow and mist goddesses of Mauna Kea. From time to time, the goddesses travel to Maui to adorn Haleakalā with snow – mirroring the journey Kalani’s mother made from Hawai‘i Island to Maui. - T. Ilihia Gionson

Kaniakapūpū
Words & Music by Kalani Peʻa

E ʻaʻahu nō ia ka wahine kapu
Hū aʻe ke aloha o ka ʻāina
Hiʻi lei i ka nani i kuʻu poli
Hemo ʻole ʻia i ka lei i wili ‘ia
Naʻu nō ia e hoʻopale aku
Kuʻihē ka naʻau hoʻolono ʻia
Pāhola ke aloha ma luna ou
Nou e ka wahine o ka wao akua
Papa Mele:
Kupu aʻe ka manaʻo, e liʻa mai nei
Hiwahiwa ka nohona o ka wao akua
E hū aʻe a koi ‘ia
Lilinoe o ka wao
Eō Poliʻahu i ʻaʻahu ʻia
Mai Maui Nui e mālama mau
Hoʻoheno ʻia ka pua lei nani
I wehi ‘ia i ka lei aloha
Kuʻu lei aloha, (pua nani ē.)

Protect our sacred Poliʻahu
An outburst of love for the land
Entwined this lei to place on my bosom
The lei is never unfastened
Let me be the one to shelter you
With extreme discomfort we shall obey
Spread forth onto you with love
For you this goddess of the divine
Bridge:
Yearning to have such a growth mindset
Acknowledge this beloved place of divine
We must rise and persuade together
For Lilinoe of the heavens
Poliʻahu is firmly protected
To be fortified by us from Maui
Cherished by the lei of exquisite blossoms
The lei of love is surely adorned
My beloved lei of never-fading, more so
everlasting beauty...
