This song, Wahine Ilikea, written by the late Rev. Dennis Kamakahi, has a title that translates to "Fair-skinned Woman" but the actual word "kea" means "white" in Hawaiian.
This song is actually about a waterfall on Moloka`i that is not normally visible as it is normally shrouded by mist and clouds. Every now and then, the wind blows away the mist and clouds, and the waterfall is revealed. He likens the rare glimpse of the waterfall to a new lover fully revealing herself for the first time.
