No ka ʻīlio hauʻoli, he mea nui ka nānā ʻana o ke kanaka.
Ua lawa anei kou manawa me kāu poʻe aloha? Nā hoa, nā hoaaloha, nā mākua, nā kaikaina, nā keiki: hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻi wale iā mākou inā manaʻo ʻoe e haʻalele mākou iā ʻoe. Hiki i kāu hoa wāwae ʻehā ke hana pū, akā ʻaʻole me ka ʻōlelo.
Akā, hōʻike kāu ʻīlio, ma o kāna ʻano, inā makemake ʻo ia i ka nānā ʻana mai iā ʻoe. Hoʻokahi mea ʻoiaʻiʻo: He holoholona nui nā ʻīlio. Inā waiho wale ʻia lākou no ka lōʻihi loa, ʻaʻole lākou e hauʻoli.
Eia pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai inā ʻo ia ka hihia me kāu hoa ʻehā wāwae:
Makemake kou ʻīlio e nānā i kēia ʻōlelo kino
ʻO ka mea ʻike i ka makemake o nā ʻīlio e huki i ka manaʻo iā lākou iho e ʻike koke i nā hōʻailona maʻamau. Nui nā ʻīlio e lilo i mea koʻikoʻi ke makemake lākou i ka nānā a me ke aloha. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia kēia, no ka laʻana, i ka hahai ʻana o kāu ʻīlio iā ʻoe ma nā wahi āpau, hilinaʻi iā ʻoe, noho ma kou wāwae, a piʻi paha ma luna ou ke noho ʻoe i lalo.
"Kūlou" paha kou hoa wāwae ʻehā i mua ou i ka wā e kīkoʻo ana i kona ʻūhā i ka lewa, e wili ana i kona huelo? A laila makemake paha ʻo ia e pāʻani pū me ʻoe.
ʻO ka hana pilikia o nā ʻīlio mehameha
ʻO nā'īlio, ka mea i waiho waleʻia ma ka home a pilikia i ka kaʻawaleʻana, e hōʻike pū i ko lākou mau manaʻo ma o nā hana pilikia. He ʻuwē nui paha a ʻuwē paha. Nahu pinepine kēia mau ʻīlio a uhae paha i nā mea. ʻOiai ka ʻike ʻana o nā hoa wāwae ʻehā e haʻalele ana ko lākou poʻe, pilikia lākou. No ka laʻana, ke kani ʻoe i nā kī a i ʻole ke kau ʻana i kou kāmaʻa.
Hoʻohenehene kekahi mau ʻīlio ke noho ʻoe ma ka home, akā ʻaʻole ʻoe e hāʻawi i kāu ʻīlio i nā ʻano like ʻole. Ma nā hihia ʻelua, ʻo ka hoʻopuka ka hana.
E hoʻomaha mau e pāʻani me kāu ʻīlio. A inā lōʻihi ʻoe mai ka home, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻoluʻolu i kāu ʻīlio, no ka laʻana, me ka mīkini kūʻai aku a i ʻole ka mea hānai. I kekahi mau hihia, ʻo ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa paʻa wale nō e kōkua i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i kāu ʻīlio e noho kaʻawale, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma lalo o ke alakaʻi ʻana o kahi mea hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻoihana.
No kāu ʻīlio, ʻo ka nānā ʻana he hōʻailona o kou ʻae ʻana
ʻO ka manaʻo o ka ʻīlio e pono ai he kanaka hoʻokahi. Makemake kekahi mau ʻīlio e paʻi ʻia, hoʻopaʻa ʻia, a makemake lākou i ka mahalo nui a i ʻole ke kani ʻana. ʻOi aku ka hoʻomaha a me ke kūʻokoʻa a ʻae aku i nā mea āu e hāʻawi ai iā lākou, akā ʻaʻole lākou makemake i nā manaʻo āpau āu e makemake ai e hāʻawi iā lākou. No laila, i mea e ʻike ai i ke ala maikaʻi loa e hoʻomaʻamaʻa ai i kāu ʻīlio, pono ʻoe e ʻike pono i kona ʻano.
Ma waho o ke ʻano, e hōʻike ka nānā i kāu ʻīlio e ʻae ana ʻoe iā ia. Ma keʻano he holoholona maoli o ke kaumaha, hāʻawi iā ia i ka manaʻo palekana a me ke kuleana.
