Ke Kali Nei Au (Waiting For Thee)
Eia au ke kali nei
Aia la i hea ku'u aloha
This is the moment
I've waited for
I can hear my heart singing
Soon bells will be ringing
This is the moment
Of sweet Aloha
I will love you longer than forever
Promise me that you will leave me never
(Words & music by Charles King)
In tune with divine Mana (spiritual energy), Kahi humbly invites Akua (God) and the Aumakuas (ancestral guardian spirits) to join the couple in their celebration of Aloha, to grant them to be united as one, in love forever and to bestow blessings upon all who are gathered.
Often the Aumakuas offer the blessings of their divine Mana by physically manifesting as a Honu (turtle), ‘Io (Hawaiian Hawk) or anuenue (rainbow).
Maile is the Hawaiian lei of eternal love and represents the umbilical cord to the spiritual world. As the couple drapes Maile Leis around each other, their spirits connect on a deep level. It is the traditional gesture of love, honor, and respect and conveys prosperity, health and blessings.
