Chords for Junior Women Kamehameha Song Contest 2008

Graceful Mele written by Kainani Kahonaele and arranged by Herb Mahelona
tells of a desire for love in a place of timeless beauty.
Led by Sienna Wahineiliia'i Wohilo'iakea Wakealoha'a-Chong,
we, _ _ the junior women, will guide you through the fragrant Moani Ala wind
with our rendition of Kahinanoo Puna.
Kahina'i amae ana kapu ana, no Kahinanoo Puna paia ala.
_ A song about a town that's seeing a lot of visitors pass through lately
on their way to see the Kilauea lava flower hit the ocean.
And now Sienna Ah Chong entered Kamehameha schools in the fourth grade.
This is her second year as a song leader.
Last year as a sophomore, [B] she directed the women [Bb] of the class of 2009 to victory.
I [G] chose Kahinanoo Puna because I wanted a little something more challenging
than last year's song, and I also thought that the melodic line was very beautiful
and that the girls could handle it. _ _ _ _ _ _

Spot on this [Abm] evening.
The arranger [N] really did a good job in getting variety.
Lots of unison and very low alto and then very high soprano and back and forth between [Eb] four part and
