  • So happy to share this collaboration with Miss Hula Japan 2018 and my dear friend Hinako Kanda. Her elegant, yet powerful hula is sooo mesmerizing... it was an absolute dream to sing and watch her tell the story of this mele so beautifully. x
    Here's a song that we both love, written by Frank Kawaikapuokalani Hewett, in memory of his late son and their love that is strung, knotted, and cherished forever like a lei of pua kenikeni.
    Much love
    Honoka
    Huge mahalo the talented Dai Wako for capturing this moment!
    Go show them some love!

    A true blessing to hear and see a beautiful combination of voice, ukelele,dance, song lyrics,and island scenery. One can feel the special Hawaii spirit and dedication of culture through dance and song. Thank you both so much for your exquisite performance and talents. Much love.

    [Lyrics]
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    E ku'u lei 'ala onaona
    E ku'u lei makamae
    Hi'ilei mau i ku'u poli
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    E ku'u lei 'ala onaona
    E ku'u lei makamae
    Hi'ilei mau i ku'u poli
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    Aloha 'oe e ku'u ipo
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    He aloha lā ea
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    Ma ku'u poli mai 'oe
    E nānea ana kāua
    E naue mai e pili
    Pili ho'oipoipo
    Pau 'ole ko'u ho'ohihi
    Me 'oe e ku'u lei aloha
    Kau ana lā i ka heke
    Hiehie me ka 'ōpua
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    Aloha 'oe e ku'u ipo
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    He aloha lā ea
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    Puana 'ia e ku'u lei
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    Ka mea e li'a mau nei
    Poina 'ole i ka hali'a
    Puana 'ia e ku'u lei
    E ku'u lei pua kenikeni
    Ka mea e li'a mau nei
    Poina 'ole i ka hali'a
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    Aloha 'oe e ku'u ipo
    He aloha e, aloha lā
    Aloha 'oe e ku'u ipo
    He aloha e, aloha lā

    Absolutely lovely! My wife was born and raised in Kealakekua but we live in Texas :-( We literally had just arrived home with “Hawaiian BBQ” and saw this video has just been posted. So here we sit, dreaming of being back on The Big Isle, eating a decent Texas version of L&L while watching this beautiful production. Thank you so much Honoka(and crew)! 🌺

    “Hapa”did the concdert in japan about 2 decays ago. Contrary to my expectation, most audience (except Japanese) wore Sunglasses with fake leather clothe in a way only those ppl could know. Withe the most exquisite Hula dancer, they showed us what the heaven is. I hope Honoka will realize that her act is also heavenly.
