There at He\u2018eia\u2028
\nAre waves for surfing<\/p>\n
Some are breaking to the left\u2028
\nAnd others to the right<\/p>\n
They slip and slide\u2028
\nSmoothly over the sandbar<\/p>\n
It was I who glided\u2028
\nAll the way to shore<\/p>\n
But I was mistaken\u2028
\nAbout finding love there<\/p>\n
I groped about in vain\u2028
\nOn the meshes of the mat<\/p>\n
But the timid bird\u2028
\nHad retired to the mountains<\/p>\n
The way is precarious\u2028
\nLike a swaying tightrope<\/p>\n
This ends the song\u2028
\nIn honor of Kal\u0101kaua.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
