Night Rainbow
written by Barbara Dempsey
From ancient Hawaiian stories, there is a rare and sacred rainbow — the Pō Mākole, the night rainbow — seen only by a few. It’s said to appear not in sunlight, but in moonlight or in dreams, when the ancestors are near and the heart is open. This song, “Pō Mākole,” is a love story that lives in that space — between darkness and light, between earth and spirit. It speaks of a bond that time cannot break… a love that glows like the night rainbow itself — unseen by many, but everlasting.
Verse 1
The winde of Kamalō, softly turn to me,
Softly calling through the night.
The fragrance of the flowers breathe,
Your scent drifts in the moonlight.
Chorus
Night Rainbow, my beloved lei
Colors of love that only we see.
When shadows fall, your light remains,
You are the rainbow inside of me.
Verse 2
Moloka‘i land so full and free,
You feed the soul, you tougch the sea,
The Kukui crown upon your brow
Guides my dreams to you somehow
Chorus
Night rainbow, my beloved lei,
Love that shines where spirits be
When time grows still, and stars grow cold,
You are the fire that carries me.
Bridge (Hawaiian)
E huli hoʻi au i kou aloha, (I return again to your love)
I ka maluhia o ke kai, (In the peace of the sea)
He ʻike i ka pō, he ao i loko, (There is light within the night)
He aloha mau loa, no kāua ē. (An endless love for us two)
Final Chorus
Night Rainbow our hearts align,
Two souls shining beyond all time.
In the light unseen, we’ll always be,
Love of the ages — eternally.
