Pearly Shells
Leon Pober / Webley Edwards
Pearly Shells,
From the ocean.
Shining in the sun
Covering the shore
When I see them
My heart tells me that I love you
More than all those little pearly shells
For every grain of sand upon the beach
I've got a kiss for you
And I've got more left over
For each star that twinkles in the blue
Pupu a o Ewa (pearly shells)
I ka nuku (from the ocean)
E lawe mai (shining in the sun)
Ahe aina (covering the shore)
Ho’i koe lawana (when I see them)
Ala hula puuloa he ala hele no kaahupahau

Pearly Shells,
From the ocean.
Shining in the sun
Covering the shore
When I see them
My heart tells me that I love you
More than all those little pearly shells
More than all those little pearly shells!
