Uncle Kihei has posted a new essay on the Halau Mohala `Ilima web site discussing the mo`olelo of his wonderful mele, "Mapuna Ka Hala O Kailua". The story of how he came to write this song and what it all means is an absolutely beautiful story.

Duke, Derek, Shawn & Sam - the men of Ke Kani Nahe have performed this song beautifully.
