No Hema
No Hema
ʻO Hema i hōʻike ʻia aʻela, he aliʻi ʻo ia no Maui. ʻO kona makuakāne, ʻo ia ʻo ʻAikāne, e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia ma ke kūʻauhau i hōʻike ʻia aʻela.
Ma ke kūʻauhau i hōʻike ʻia aʻe nei ʻo Hina hānaiakamalama, ʻo ia ka makuahine o Hema a me Puna.
ʻO kēia wahine ʻo Hina, ʻo ia nō ʻo Lono-moku i lele ai mai Hawaiʻi aku nei a komo i loko o ka mahina.
He moʻolelo i ʻike nui ʻia a i kamaʻāina nō hoʻi i ka poʻe kahiko e ola nei i kēia wā, ka moʻolelo ʻo Lono-moku. No ko Hina kaea i ka hana ʻino mau o nei mau wahi keiki, ʻo ia ʻo Puna a me Hema, no laila, ua lele ʻo ia i luna o ka mahina.
A ma kona wā i lele aʻe ai, ua hopu akula kāna kāne ʻo ʻAikanaka a paʻa ma ka wāwae o ka wahine. Akā, no ka ikaika loa o kā Hina lele ʻana, pēlā pū hoʻi me ka ikaika o kā ʻAikanaka huki ʻana iho i ka wāwae o ka wahine, ua moku ihola ka wāwae o ka wahine, a lele muʻumuʻu akula ʻo Hina a komo i loko o ka mahina.
Ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia ʻo Lono-muku. ʻO ia ka mea i kapa ʻia ai kekahi pō ma ka Helu Hawaiʻi ma nā kaulana mahina ʻo Muku, no ka muʻumuʻu ʻana o ka wāwae o ka wahine, ua moku ihola ka wāwae o Hina. A he pō kau ʻole ʻia nō hoʻi e ka mahina ma ka helu Hawaiʻi.
Ua hōʻike ka moʻolelo Hawaiʻi kahiko, ua hānau ʻia ʻo Hema ma Hawaiʻi-kua-uli, i Kaʻuiki, ma Hāna Maui. He ʻelua āna wahine, ʻo Luamehekoa: (ʻo ia nō ʻo Luamaheau) a me Luamahahoa, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo Luamahahoia, a ʻo ʻUlamakahoa kekahi inoa.
ʻO kēia wahine ʻelua no uka ia o ʻĪao i Wailuku, a ʻo ia ka makuahine o Kahaʻi[k].
Ua hōʻike ʻia aʻe nei ʻo ʻAikāne kekahi inoa o ka makuakāne o Hema me Puna; a ʻo ʻAikanaka hoʻi kekahi inoa. ʻO ka inoa mua, ʻo ia ka inoa i kapa mua ʻia ai ʻo ia, e kona mau mākua; a ʻo ka inoa hope, ma muli o ka moku ʻana o ka wāwae o Hina, kāna wahine, i ka lele ʻana i loko o ka mahina.
Eia iho ke “mele Koʻihonua” i pili iā Hema
Mele Koʻihonua no Hema.
- ʻO Hema a ʻAikāne
- Ke aliʻi o Kaʻuiki
- I hānau nō i Hawaiʻi-kua-uli
- I Kapueokahi—
- I ka lulu, i ka laʻi,
- I ka makani kahi ʻaoʻao
- I Punahoa lā ke ewe
- Ka ʻaʻa i Kawalakiʻi
- O Kuakaha ka piko
- Ka piko o ke aliʻi.
- Lawea i luna i Māpuʻena.
- He aliʻi no Kaihalulu i Mokuhano
- I Wānanaʻīkū kahua
- He kahua ʻolina na Hema
- ʻimi a loaʻa ka wahine
- ʻO Luamaheau; ʻo Luamahahoa ia
- Loaʻa ʻo Kahaʻi ke koʻi ʻula a Hema
- Kauhua hoʻokahi ka malama
- Kaʻa i ka ʻīloli ʻalua
- ʻOno i ka hinalea ʻakolu,
- ʻAhā, ʻalima, ʻaono ka malama
- Holo Hema i Kahiki
- Kiʻi i ka ʻApe-ʻula
- Loaʻa Hema lilo i ka ʻĀʻaia
- Hāʻule i Kahiki i Kapakapaua
- Waiho ai i Ulupaʻupaʻu
- I laila nā maka o Hema.
Eia ma kēia mele koʻihonua; ʻike hou ʻia kekahi hele hou ʻana o ko Hawaiʻi nei poʻe i Kahiki. Ke hōʻike nei ke mele, ua holo ʻo Hema i Kahiki i kiʻi i ka ʻape- ʻula. I kiʻi ʻo ia i kēia mea i Kahiki i “pālala” no kāna keiki, no Kahaʻi, ka mea o ke mele e hōʻike nei, he “koʻi-ʻula” ia na Hema.
I nei holo ʻana o Hema i Kahiki, ua make ʻo ia i ka ʻĀʻaia, kapa ʻia i kekahi wā, Ke ʻāʻaia-nuke-a-Kāne. He manu kēia ʻĀʻaia; a na kēia manu i pōʻalo i nā maka o Hema a waiho ʻia ai i ʻUlupaʻupaʻu.
