The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-05-28

AnG cloud throws its kiss to the sods. |
On the great oceans breast,
Cleans the paradise of rest,
Where at home would e'er abide,
Where peace woos your soul
As you sip from life's bowl
Oahu, indeed, thou art my pride.
Your girls and your boys
Seem to know naught but joys,
Their hearts never seem to grow old.
And the songs that they sing
Have welcoming ring
That comes from young hearts of gold.
And when l have passed
To my sleep at the last
Strew wide my ashes DER the sea
That kisses the shore
Of the isle that l adore
Aloha, Oahu, it is thee.
