Hula Lei Ho'oheno Weldon Kekauoha

My version of Lei Ho'oheno, feel free to copy or use all or some parts and change moves to make it easier or better for you. I left the whole beginning even though it's a pretty long intro. I know I'm not smiling, my mom did NOT like that but this is just an instructional video, not a performance ;) This is a good one to learn because even though it's kind of a long song, it has only 2 verses!
Here's the lyrics and translation:
E ku'u pili aloha My dear friend
Ku'u lei kau po'ohiwi My lei that adorns my shoulders
Onaona i ka ihu Sweet to smell
Nohea i ka maka Beautiful to look at
Liliko i ka ua kilihuna Glistening in the wind blown spray
Kilipohe i ke kanilehua Moistenend by the kanilehua rain
Wewelo ke aloha i ka 'onohi Love streams before my eyes
'ume'ume mai ho'i kau Oh, how alluring you are
E kahi lei ho'oheno My cherished friend
