Marty Robbins Drowsy Waters (wailana)
Like Drowsy Waters are thy deep lit eyes, love
(Kealoha e malia ma i oe)
And my heart the flower thirsting deep on hope's brink
(Oia i kea loha i ke kino)
Oh give me to drink thy tender sighs, love
(Ua kui a pa'ah lei)
Give me to drink, again, give me to drink.
(I wahi wo'o heno noka lani).
The scent of your hair is here at my heart, love
(Auhea wela oe kealoha)
Old kisses burn softly along my veins, love
(La au ho'o ulu I ke kino)
But oh, and why are we apart, love
(Ia i laka ua e pili a i)
Without you naught of joy remains.
(I ka o lu o wai la).
The rainbow in the sky aloft is gleaming
(Ua la na loko i ka make make)
The wind amomg the palms, is softly singing
(I ka nani o mai le ha he i)
while far o'er the sea your voice calls me
(I u he ne ika po-lio ma lio)
Drowsy waters, by whose shores I lay dreaming.
(I ke one ma lua ka a ka wai).
