The song that I chose to write about is “‘Ka Moa`e” and it means “The Tradewinds”. I chose this song because ever since I was young I loved the Big Island, and it reminds me of how much I miss it there. I like the line that explains the excitement of being thrilled by a loves voice. In Hawaiian the line says “Ilihia ho`i au a i ko leo, I ka pane `ana mai me ka nahenahe.” Translated in English it means “I will be thrilled by your voice, And your soft answers. Ka Moa`e: The Tradewinds `Auhea wale `oe e ka Moa`e Listen, o tradewinds E lawe hele nei i ku`u aloha. Who scatters my loves here and there. Ahea la `oe ho`iho`i mai When will you return A he lei poina `ole ia na`u? The lei I never will forget? …show more content…
Since the lei also does represents their love for one another he says that he wants her to wear his love as a lei and have it with her for whenever she gets lonely to remind her of him. The fifth and sixth verses say that he does not want her to forget about their love for each other (the flowers). He says that they will be together again and when they are, it will be a blessing like nights with fine rain. In the seventh and eighth verses he explains how happy he is going to be when he gets to hear her wonderful, soft voice. And he wants her to know that whatever he’s doing, he will be there for her and if she needs him he will be there for her no matter what. The ninth and tenth verses say that their love is united by sweetness and she’s his sweetheart of the seas of Kona with the dew of Ma‘ihi, so she must live in Kona by Ma‘ihi Bay. The final verse says for his love, the sweetheart on the quiet seas of Kona, to tell their story. This song is a simple love song about how much a man misses the woman that he loves and how happy he will be when they will be able to be with each other again. An interesting fact that caught my attention is that he used the lei as a representation of the love he had for his woman. It’s cute that he used that as a point of view. You can wear a lei, you can wear your love. To sum it up, this mele is a love song about a man longing for his love who is

Now you’re gone by Rosco Gordon talks about how a woman left or died. He is talking about the heartache he feels without her there. How all the plans they made will never be able to happen because she is gone. There is a part in the song where it says “So many plans, so many dreams, but so little time” I think this phrase is poetic because it’s saying how we don’t have all the time in the world to complete our dreams and plans. We have very little time to accomplish them. He misses her and he says that without her there is no sunshine in his life also very poetic because it is saying that she was everything to him that she was his light so now that she is gone he is in the dark having that light taken away from him.
