ʻUmi: Mokuna ʻElima

No Ka Lilo ʻAna O ʻUmi I Aliʻi No Hawaiʻi

Ua make ʻo Hākau, a ua lilo aʻela ʻo ʻUmi i aliʻi no Hawaiʻi a puni. Ma hope o ka make ʻana o Hākau, hoʻi maila nā kānaka i hoʻouna ʻia aʻe i ke kuahiwi me nā lāʻau. A hiki lākou, nānā maila e noho aku ana o ʻUmi, a me kona mau kānaka. No laila, noʻonoʻo ihola lākou, ua make ko lākou aliʻi ʻo Hākau, uē ihola lākou iā ia, akā, ʻaʻole i māhuahua ko lākou aloha nona, no ka mea, he aliʻi hana ʻino a he aliʻi luku wale i nā kānaka.

Penei kā Hākau hana, i kona wā e noho aliʻi ana: Inā mahalo ʻia ke kāne i ke kanaka maikaʻi, a me ka wahine i ka maikaʻi, he luku wale nō kā Hākau. Inā mahalo ʻia ke poʻo i ka pālahalaha maikaʻi, a laila, make poʻo e ʻoki ai, inā ma ke kino ka mahalo ʻia, a laila, ma ke kino e ʻoki ai, inā ma nā maka ka maikaʻi, ma laila nō e pōʻalo ai, a pēlā aku nō.

I kekahi manawa, nānā akula kekahi kahuna a Hākau i kekahi keiki ʻōpiopio, a ʻōlelo akula i nā mākua o ua keiki lā, he keiki maikaʻi loa kēia o ke kino, ʻaʻohe ona kīnā. A lohe ʻo Hākau i kēia ʻōlelo ʻana, hoʻouna akula ia i ka ʻelele e lawe mai i ke keiki a mua o kona alo, a hiki maila ke keiki, ʻoʻoki aʻela ke aliʻi ʻo Hākau, ma waena konu o ke kino o ke keiki, a moku ihola. Lohe akula nā mākua i kēia hana a Hākau, a laila, ʻōlelo wānana ihola kona makua kāne, penei, ” ʻOʻoki pahupū ihola ia i kuʻu keiki, pēlā e ʻoʻoki pahupū ʻia ai kona noho aupuni ʻana. A ka lā kauila o ke akua, ʻo ia kona lā e make ai.” No laila, ua hoʻokō Hākauia.

A hiki maila ka pō ʻo Muku (ʻo ia ka pau ʻana o ka malama), hele akula nā kāhuna a me ko lākou mau kānaka, e kāpapa ulua, a hiki i kahi o nā waʻa, hoʻokoʻele ma ka nīao o nā waʻa. A i loko o ia wā, hele mai nā kānaka, a laila, hopu ʻia lākou a pepehi ·ʻia a make, a laila, hoʻolou i ka makau, iā Manaiakalani; inā ʻaʻole ia, ʻo ka limu kala ka maunu e hoʻolou ai i ka makau, a lawe aku i ka heiau. Akā, ua lilo kēia hana āna i pomaikaʻi no Kaʻōleiokū.

Ma kēia noho aliʻi ʻana o ʻUmi iā Hawaiʻi a puni, mahele ihola ia i ka ʻāina no kona mau aliʻi. Penei kona mahele ʻana: ʻO Kaʻū no ʻŌmaʻokāmau; ʻo Puna no ke aikāne a ʻUmi; ʻo Hilo no Kaʻōleiokū; ʻo Hāmākua no Piʻimaiwaʻa; ʻo Kohala no Koʻi; ʻo Kona no ʻEhu.

Ka Lilo ʻAna O Kaʻōleiokū I Kahuna

Na Ke Aliʻi, Na ʻUmi

A pau ko ʻUmi mahele ʻana i nā ʻāina no kona poʻe ponoʻī, kū maila ʻo Kaʻōleiokū i waenakonu o nā aliʻi a ʻōlelo maila penei:

“E Ke Aliʻi, e hoʻolohe mai;
Ke kū nei au i mua o kou alo,
A me ke alo o kou poʻe kānaka,
Ke hoʻolilo nei ʻoe e ke aliʻi,
I kahuna au nou i kēia lā,
E like me kou ʻike ʻana iaʻu ma mua,
A ua hoʻokō ʻia mai i kēia wā;
A ua kōkua mai ke akua iā ʻoe,
A ua lanakila ʻoe ma luna o ka ʻilihune,
A ʻo ʻoe ke aliʻi nui o Hawaiʻi nei.
A e noho ana nā kānaka ma lalo ou;
Inā e pono kou noho aliʻi ʻana,
A laila, e mau loa kou aliʻi ʻana,
A inā e like ʻoe me kou kaikuaʻana
A laila, hoʻowahāwahā ʻia ʻoe.
He hoʻokuli ka make,
He hoʻolohe ke ola.”

Ma hope o kēia mau ʻōlelo a Kaʻōleiokū iā ʻUmi, ʻōlelo akula ia i ke aliʻi, iā ʻUmi, a me ʻŌmaʻokāmau.

Ma ʻaneʻi e ʻike ai kākou i ke kūpono o ka noho kahuna ʻana o Kaʻōleiokū na ʻUmi, a ma ʻaneʻi kākou e ʻike ai i ka pololei o nā ʻōlelo wānana a Kaʻōleiokū i mua o ke aliʻi a me nā kānaka.

ʻĪ aku ʻo Kaʻōleiokū, “E Ke Aliʻi; e kū i luna.” A kū aʻela ʻo ʻUmi i luna. “E ʻŌmaʻokāmau, e kū i luna.” Ma waena o lāua, ʻewalu anana ke kaʻawale, a loaʻa kekahi i kekahi. ʻO kēia hana a Kaʻōleiokū, he hōʻailona no ke aliʻi, no ʻUmi, i mea e maopopo ai ka paʻa o ke aupuni, a me ka ʻole.

Iā lāua e kū ana, aia ma ko ʻŌmaʻokāmau lima ʻākau ka lāʻau pālau e paʻa ana, ʻo ia ʻo Kanīʻaupiʻiikalani. ʻAʻole e pahu wale ʻia ia lāʻau, aia nō a pā i ka ʻāina, a laila pahu, ma ke ʻano hōʻailona a kahuna. ʻŌlelo aku ʻo Kaʻōleiokū ia ʻŌmaʻokāmau, “E ʻŌmaʻokāmau ē, ʻo kō ikaika nō a pau loa: pahu i ka piko o ke aliʻi.” No ka mea, ua ʻike ʻo Kaʻōleiokū iā ʻŌmaʻokāmau, he kanaka ikaika i ka ʻō ihe. I ia wā, kaʻikaʻi aʻela ʻo ʻŌmaʻokāmau i ka lāʻau, a pahu maila iā ʻUmi, me ka ikaika Joa (ʻo “wahie” ka ʻai). A kokoke i ka piko o ʻUmi, pale aʻela ʻo ʻUmi, hala ka ihe ma hope; me ka lele nō, ʻapo akula ʻo ʻUmi, a paʻa akula ma ka welelau o ka ihe.

Ma kēia ʻapo ʻana a ʻUmi i ka ihe, ʻike maila ʻo Kaʻōleiokū i ka ʻalo ʻana o ʻUmi, a me ka ʻapo hou ʻana i ka ihe, a paʻa ma kona lima, ʻoliʻoli ihola ia me ka mahalo no ʻUmi. ʻĪ aku ʻo Kaʻōleiokū iā ʻUmi, “E Ke Aliʻi, ke ʻike nei au, ua pololei kāu hana ʻana i mua o koʻu mau maka, e like me kaʻu mau ʻōlelo aʻo iā ʻoe, e Ke Aliʻi, a me kou mau kānaka, a ke ʻike nei nō hoʻi au i ke kumu e paʻa ai kou aupuni me ʻoe. I kēia lā, ke hoʻolilo nei au iaʻu iho ma lalo o kou mau kapuaʻi, a ke haʻi aku nei au i kuʻu ʻōlelo paʻa i mua ou, e Ke Aliʻi, ʻaʻole mea nānā e kāʻili aʻe kou aupuni mai kou lima aku.”

A laila, hoʻākaka aku ʻo Kaʻōleiokū i kona ʻike ma ka ʻōuli kahuna i mua o ʻUmi, e like me kona ʻike ʻoiaʻiʻo. Wahi a Kaʻōleiokū i ke aliʻi, iā ʻUmi, “Ke ʻike nei au i kō akua; e like me kāu pale ʻana i ka ihe a hala, pēlā ʻoe e noho ai i kou aupuni a hala i ka make. E like me kou ʻapo ʻana i ka welelau o ka ihe a paʻa i ka lima, pēlā e paʻa ai kou aupuni a ili i kāu keiki, kāu moʻopuna, kāu pua, kāu marno, a hiki loa i kāu mau kawowo hope loa.”

A pau aʻela ka Kaʻōleiokū ʻōlelo ʻana, nīnau aʻela ʻo ʻUmi, “ʻAuhea nā wahi ʻelemākule, ʻo Nunu a me Kakohe?” ʻĪ akula kekahi, “Eia aʻe nō.” ʻŌlelo akula ʻo ʻUmi, “E ʻōlelo aku ʻoukou iā lāua e hele mai i mua oʻu ʻānō.” A hiki maila ua mau ʻelemākule nei, ʻī akula ʻo ʻUmi,” ʻO ʻolua maila ia?” “ʻAe,” pēlā ua mau ʻelemākule nei.

No Ka Hāʻawi ʻAna O ʻUmi I Ka ʻĀina

No Nunu A Me Kakohe, Nā ʻElemākule

E ʻike kākou ma ʻaneʻi i ke akamai o ʻUmi, a me kona maʻalea lua ʻole, ʻo ia kona mahele ʻana i ka ʻāina no nā ʻelemākule ʻelua. A hiki maila ʻo Nunu a me Kakohe i mua o ʻUmi, kū aʻela ʻo ʻUmi a hele akula me nā ʻelemākule. Ma kēia hele ʻana a ʻUmi mā, ʻo ʻŌmaʻokāmau, ʻo Koʻi, ʻo Piʻimaiwaʻa a me kekahi poʻe ʻē aʻe, piʻi akula lākou mai Waipiʻo aku a luna o Koakea, he ʻāina ia e pili ana me Waipiʻo. A laila, ʻōlelo aku ʻo ʻUmi iā Nunu, i kekahi ʻelemakule, “E holo ʻoe mai kēia wahi aku, a hina, ala aʻe nō, holo; inā ʻoe i māloʻeloʻe a noho iho, make ʻoe iaʻu.”

Ma kēia ʻōlelo o ʻUmi, ua makaʻu loa ia wahi ʻelemakule, akā, ua holo nō ia e like me ka ʻōlelo a ke aliʻi. Ma kēia holo ʻana a Nunu, ʻo ʻŌmaʻokāmau ka i holo pū me ia. ʻO ke kumu i holo pū ai me ʻŌmaʻokāmau, i maopopo ka nui o ka ʻāina e lilo iā ia, a i ʻike ʻia ko ke aliʻi manaʻo.

Ma kēia holo ʻana, huikau nā wāwae o ua ʻelemakule nei, a hina ihola, ala aʻe nō a holo, a keʻehi kekahi wāwae ma luna o kekahi wāwae, a hina ihola ʻo Nunu, i lalo ke alo ma ka honua, me ka paupauaho loa o kona hanu. A hiki ʻo ʻUmi a me kekahi ʻelemakule, ʻo Kakohe, i kahi o Nunu e waiho ana, ʻōlelo ihola o ʻUmi, “E, make?” Hū aʻela ʻo Nunu, “Hū.” Noho ihola lākou a liʻuliʻu, ʻoluʻolu aʻela ʻo Nunu, ʻī aku ʻo ʻUmi iā Nunu, “Mai kō wahi i kū ai a holo mai nei, a hiki i kahi a kākou e noho nei, ʻalua ahupuaʻa. ʻO kou mau ʻāina ia.”

Ma kēia ʻōlelo a ʻUmi iā Nunu, lohe ihola ʻo Kakohe, kekahi ʻelemakule. ʻŌlelo ihola ia penei, i loko ona, “Pēlā kā ka hāʻawi ʻana a ke aliʻi i ka ʻāina i kona poʻe kānaka, he holo a moe ʻokoʻa, ʻo ka make wale nō koe. Ua pololei ʻiʻo nō, e like me kā māua hoʻoluhi ʻana, pēlā nō hoʻi e hoʻoluhi ʻia ai māua.”

ʻĪ akula ʻo ʻUmi iā Kakohe,” ʻO ʻoe hoʻi, e bolo ʻoe.” I ia wā holo ʻo Kakohe me Piʻimaiwaʻa, holo akula lāua a pau ke ahupuaʻa hoʻokahi, hina ihola ʻo Kakohe i lalo ma ka honua, a waiho ihola me ka pau o ke aho. Hiki akula ʻo ʻUmi i laila, ʻōlelo ihola, “Make, ea?” Hū aʻela ia, “Hū.” ʻO ia ʻōlelo, penei ke ʻano, ” ʻū,” a no ka pau pono ʻole o ke aho, hepa ka ʻōlelo ʻana, ʻo ia kēlā “hū.”

A laila, ʻī aku ʻo ʻUmi, “ʻO kou ʻāina kēia, hoʻokahi ahupuaʻa, a ʻo ko Nunu ʻelua ahupuaʻa, iā ʻolua nō ka hoʻoponopono o ko ʻolua.” ʻĪ akula ʻo ʻUmi iā Nunu a me Kakohe, ” ʻO nā mea a pau i luna o ko ʻolua mau ʻāina, no ʻolua ia, a na ʻolua e hana e like me ko ʻolua makemake; mai manaʻo ʻolua iaʻu a na ʻolua ia e hoʻoili aku i ko ʻolua mau hoʻoilina.” A pau kēia·ʻōlelo a ʻUmi i nā ʻelemākule, hoʻi maila i lalo o Waipiʻo, me kona mau hoa hele. A hiki lākou i lalo, noho ihola.

ʻO kā ʻUmi hana, ʻo ka ʻōʻō ihe me kona mau kānaka ponoʻī, ʻo ia ʻo Koʻi, ʻŌmaʻokāmau a ʻo Piʻimaiwaʻa. ʻO kēia mau kānaka ʻekolu, he mau kānaka koa loa lākou, a no ko lākou koa, ua hoʻolilo ʻia lākou he mau pūkaua no ʻUmi. ʻO ko lākou ʻoi loa, ma ka lima ʻākau, a ma ka lima hema, ʻo Piʻimaiwaʻa. ʻO Koʻi, he ikaika lima hema, he nāwaliwali kona lima ʻākau, pēlā ʻo ʻŌmaʻokāmau.

A liʻuliʻu ka noho ʻana o ʻUmi ma Waipiʻo, ʻōlelo aku ʻo Kaʻōleiokū iā ʻUmi, “E Ke Aliʻi ē, pono e kaʻapuni ʻoe iā Hawaiʻi nei a puni.” A lohe ʻo ʻUmi, ua ʻoluʻolu ia ʻōlelo i kona manaʻo. I ia wā, kēnā akula ʻo ʻUmi iā Piʻimaiwaʻa, e hele ʻē ma mua e haʻi aku i nā konohiki i ka hele aku o ke aliʻi, a e ʻōlelo aku, i ʻai, i iʻa. Pēlā nō ke kala hele ʻana, a lohe nā konohiki, a me nā aliʻi i hoʻonoho ʻia i nā moku o Hawaiʻi ʻeono, ʻo ia ʻo Hilo, ʻo Puna, Kaʻū, Kona, Kohala, a Hāmākua.
