Its me again... I did happen to stumble over the hawaiian lyrics to this version of Maile lei, And i found out it is not at all what I thought, it has nothing to do with the Maile Lei.... so it changes my hula choreography for this song, I don't even know the artist who sings this particular version, it's very beautiful, music everything, but that haw'n verses really throws it off....starts off like this

wear this lei,
Maile lei,
Maile lei for this occasion
fragrance sweet?,
color green,
leaves entwind like a vine,
beautiful maile lei,

and that verse just keeps repeating... and then you have the hawaiian verse.

Pupu heno heno,
pupu heno heno e,
okekahe kai kahe kai e,
pupu heno heno e,

Mahalo j-me
