------------------------------------------
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Margarita
------------------------------------------

On a hilltop in Tahiti as I gaze across the bay
At the island of Moorea, standing in the day
Oh my lovely Margarita serving cool Hînano beer
I'll be a fool in paradise, I'm a fool out here.

 Hui: / Chorus:
Ia orana*, can you stand the heat?
*Ia orana = Tahitian greeting, like Aloha
Ia orana, bouncing in bare feet
Ia orana, when you laugh at me
Ia orana, say I....I'm in ecstasy.


Oh, your name is Margarita, the salt upon your lips
The lemon and tequila, the flavor of your kiss
All the magic and the beauty, the humor of these isles
Captured like a goldfish, the sparkle of your smile.

(E hana hou i ka hui)
(Repeat chorus)


Oh the crimson dress you're wearing,
with nothing underneath
Flower there behind your ear,
and all your rotten teeth
Margarita, Margarita, please dance with me tonight
We would dance together, where stars shine so bright

(E hana hou i ka hui)
(Repeat chorus)


Margarita, Margarita, I come from far away
Let's go take a swim down in Matawai Bay
Margarita, Margarita, please touch my hinalea*
*hinalea = a slippery wrasse fish
We go in the dark and we don't need a spear.

(E hana hou i ka hui)
(Repeat chorus)
