Hoʻāʻo ʻo Pele e hoʻohemo i nā kōkala ma luna ona; ʻaʻole naʻe i hemo. Ma hope iki, hiki mai kona kaikūnane ʻo Paʻao me ka ipu wai i piha i ke kai a ʻī akula ʻo Pele iā ia e kōkua. Pinana aʻe ʻo Paʻao ma luna o ke kumu pūhala, a ʻo ka nini ihola nō ia i ke kai. Ua mae ihola nā muʻo, a hoʻokuʻu ʻia aʻela ʻo Pele. Ma muli o ko Pele ukiuki, huhuki ia i ka muʻo, kiola ma kēlā wahi kēia wahi, a kau mai kekahi muʻo ma Hawaiʻi nei ma Kohala, ʻo ia nō ʻo ʻOhiʻohikupua. ʻO ia ke kumu pūhala mua i ulu ma Hawaiʻi nei, aia ma Kohala. He haʻawina ko kēia moʻolelo no ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana i ka lauhala a me ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana iho i ka pilina o Pele i ka lauhala. ʻO Pele ke ahi, a i ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana i ka lau, ʻo ka pele ka mea e hoʻopalupalu i ka lauhala. Ma hope o ke kīhae kōkala ʻana, e ʻaiana ʻoe me ke kaomi ʻana ma luna o ka lauhala me ke kīkī pū i ka wai ma luna ona i ʻole e paʻapaʻaʻina ai ka lauhala. ʻO ka hōʻenaʻena o ka ʻaiana ka mea e puhemo ai nā kōkala ma nā lihilihi o ka lau ke pelu ʻia iho nā lihilihi i loko, a ma muli hoʻi o ko Pele hōʻenaʻena aku iā ʻOhiʻohikupua ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo ia. He hea kēia i ka poʻe unala lauhala o kēia au e hoʻomaopopo leʻa ʻoukou i ka moʻokūʻauhau o ia hana noʻeau i ʻole e hapa mai ai ka ʻike ma ka unala ʻana. I mea aha ka moʻolelo o ʻOhiʻohikupua? I mea e hōʻike aku ai i ka pilina o nā akua Hawaiʻi, ʻo ka mole hoʻi o kā kākou hana. E nānā kākou i hope i mea e maopopo ai ko kākou pilina me ka unala lauhala i kēia au. Na wai hoʻi ka ʻole o ke akamai, he ala i maʻa i ka hele ʻia e oʻu mau mākua. © Makana Gomes 2023 #loinahawaii #moolelokahiko ko mua ko hope
