Frederick Macdonald Hoctor: Poetry
My Hawaiian Dove
Shine Honolulu moon
Shine on me
Help me to forget her
Help me to be free
But please, Honolulu moon
Don’t let me know
If she’s with another
On the bay at Kaneo
My Hawaiian Dove
Please come back to me
My Hawaiian Dove
Return, set me free
I Kuhio a Cadillac cow
On the big cat Waikiki
Come back my dove
Return my love to me
(Song Lyrics)
