            O Kaunuanuamoa ka makuakane, o Hina ka makuahine, hanau mai na laua o Kiinoho, a me Kiihele, he mau keikikane wale no keia.  A mahope, hanau mai he kaikamahine, oia hoi o Hinaaikamalama, a i ka noho ana o ua mau keiki nei ekolu malalo iho o ka malu o ko lakou mau makua, o keia po keiki, he poe ui loa lakou, a he nani hoi ke nana’ku.  I ko lakou nei noho ana, a make ka makuakane, a me ka makuahine, koe iho la o lokou nei wale no e noho ana i ke ao, aole makua.

            A hiki i kekahi la, oia hoi ka po o Malani a ao ae, alaila makaukau lakou e paine, a hoi aku la na kaikunane imua e ai ai, a o ke kaikuahine hoi, paina no hoi oia i hope maloko o kona hale, oiai oia hookahi wale no malaila.  Aia hoi, i na kaikukane imua e ai ana, kahea’ku la ko laua kaikuahine, “e laua la e!”  Alaila i mai la na kaikunane, “eia no maua ke ai nei,”  “Ae” wahi a ko laua kaikuahine, ai no hoi laua la imua, ai no hoi keia i hope.  Aole nae i maona o Hinaaikamalama, popoi e iho la no ia i ke poi o kana umeke, a mahope, kahea’ku la oia i kona mau kaikunane ma ke ano ninau.

            Eia no ua mau ninau la.  “Auhea olua” wahi a ke kaikuahine, “eia no maua” wahi a na kaikunane, “Ae, e ninau ana au ia olua.  Eia ka ninau mua ia oe e Kiinoho, wahi a Hinaaikamalama,” “ae, ninau mai no” wahi a Kiinoho, alaila, “I aku la ko laua kaikuahine, ae, i ka wa e ola ana na makua o kakou, o keaha kau puni i hai ai ia laua?”  alaila, pane mai koke mai la no hoi keia kaikunane, “ka! o ka’u puni no hoi paha i hai ai i na makua o kakou ea, o ka noho no hoi paha e like pu no hoi me ko laua kappa ana i ko’u inoa o Kiinoho, pela no  hoi au e noho ai?  He wahi mea aunei la a lohe ia na kakou ma uka, ma kai, ma-o, maanei, aole au e kii.”

            A lohe ke kaikuahine i ka manao kupanaha o keia kaikunane, pau kona ninau ana ia ia.  Alaila, hoomaka oia e ninau aku ia Kiihele, “Ae, ke ninau aku nei au ia oe.  I ka wa e ola ana na makua o kakou, o keaha kau puni i hai ai ia laua?”  Alaila pane mai la no hoi keia kaikunane apiki no hoi, “O ka’u puni no hoi i hoike ai ia laua ea? o ka hele, e like pu no hoi me ko laua kapa ana i ko’u inoa o Kiihele, pela no hoi au e hana ai, he hele ka’u puni i lohe oe.”

            No ka mea, ina he wahi mea na kakou la mauka, kii au, makai hoi, kii au, ma-o hoi kii au, maanei hoi kii au, o ka’u puni ia la wahi a Kiihele.”  Alaila, ku mai la ko laua kaikuahine Alii, a wanana mai la imua o laua, me ka olelo mai penei:  “Ae, ua ninau aku nei au ia olua e o’u mau Haku, no ka olua puni i hai ai i na makua o kakou, aka hoi, ua hai pakahi mai nei olua, nolaila, eia ko’u manao e hai aku i kahi, a me kekahi o olua, o oe e Kiinoho, he puni maikai no hoi kau he noho, o ka anee wale iho la no paha auanei iloko o ka hale la, aole au loaa hele, aole loaa hana, nolaila, he puni maikai loa kau, he puni loaa io noia.”

            A pau ka ninau ana ia Kiinoho, a me kona hoakaka ana.  Alaila, hoomaka kona hai ana ia

 Kiihele penei:  “Ae, ua lohe ae nei au i ka ia la pono, a me kana puni.  A o oe hoi e kuu kaikunane Haku ke Alii o ka aina nei, ke hai aku nei au ia oe, o kau puni o ka hele, e aho ia mamua o ka puni o ko kaua hanau mua, oiai ma ka puni hele ea! He puni loaa no ia, na ka hele wale no ka loaa, aole loaa a ka noho, nolaila, ua mahalo au i kau puni, a ua maikai no hoi.”

            Alaila, hoopau ae la o Hinaaikamalama i kana mau olelo ia laua, a hoi aku la oia ma kona hale e hiamoe ai.  A mahope iho, ninau aku la na kaikunane ia ia no kana puni penei:  “Auhea oe e ko maua Haku Alii kaikuahine hoi, ke ninau aku nei maua ia oe, a o keaha hoi kau puni i hai ai i na makua o kakou, oiai hoi e like me oe i ninau mai nei  ia maua, no ka maua mau puni.  Pela no hoi maua e ninau aku ai ia oe no kau puni.”  Alaila, i mai la ko laua kaikuahine, “Ae, ke ninau mai nei hoi olua no’u, a ke hai pokole aku nei au.  O ka’u puni i hai ai ia laua, he Ia, a he Ai, o ka’u puni iho la no ia la i lohe olua.”

            A moe ko laua kaikuahine ma kona hale, noho iho la na kaikuanane ma ko laua hale imua, me ka ohumu i mea e oluolu ai, a e loaa koke ai hoi ka puni a ko laua kaikuahine.  Eia ka laua, pane mai o Kiinoho, “E kii oe ia Makaoku i ke Alii o Hile nei i kane na ko kaua kaikuahine,” wahi a Kiihele, “Ka! aole paha auanei e ae mai o Makaoku, o opa hewa hoi au i keia wahi loihi, mai uka aku nei a hiki i i kai o Waiakea.”

            Aiaila, pane mai la o Kiinoho, “ke hoike nei au ia oe, ina hiki oe i kai imua o ke ‘Lii ea, a i i mai ia oe e ai e oe mamua ea, mai ai oe.  Aia a lohe i kau huaolelo i hiki aku ai i o-na la, a kupouo paha i kona manao, a ae mai, alaila, ai oe i ka ai, a me ka ia, no ka mea, ua eo mai la kona manao ia kaua ma kau hai maikai ana’ku.  Aka, i hiki oe ma kai imua o ke ‘Lii, a i ai e oe mamua.  Alaila, ke hai aku nei au ia oe, pela no hoi e ae ole mai ai ke Akua o ko kaua mau kupuna, nolaila, e holohe loa oe i ka’u, i mea e ko ai o ka puni a ko kaua kaikuahine Alli.”

            Alaila, ke ae la o Kiihele iluna, a maloeloe, a ku ka puali o kahi alii, o kona iho mai la noia mai uka mai o Kaunuamoa, a hiki makai o Mokuola, a i kona hiki ana i kai, he la ua nui ia, me ka hekili, aka, i kona ku ana ma ka puka o ka Hale Alii o Makaoku, aia hoi e noho ana no ia ma ka puka o kona hale, he halau lihi.  Ua piha ka hale i na puali alii a pau.  O ka lakou hana ia la he puhenehene, oia ko Hawai'i nei hana lealea e like pu me ka pepa ana, o ke kappa, ua hoopuupuuia a he umikumamalua puu.
