"%22Aloha \u02BBOe%22 (Farewell to Thee) is Lili\u02BBuokalani's most famous song and a common cultural symbol for Hawaii. The story of the origin of the song has several variations. They all have in common that the song was inspired by a notable farewell embrace given by Colonel James Harbottle Boyd during a horseback trip taken by Princess Lili\u02BBuokalani in 1877 or 1878 to the Boyd ranch in Maunawili on the windward side of O\u02BBahu, and that the members of the party hummed the tune on the way back to Honolulu. Different versions tell of alternate recipients of the embrace \u2014 either Lili\u02BBuokalani's sister Princess Likelike Cleghorn or a young lady at the ranch. According to the most familiar version of the story:This tender farewell set Lili\u02BBuokalani to thinking, and she began humming to herself on the homeward trip. Overhearing, Charles Wilson observed, %22That sounds like The Lone Rock by the Sea,%22 a comment with which Lili\u02BBuokalani is said to have agreed. When the party paused to rest in an orange grove on the Honolulu side of the Pali, the others joined in the hummings, and the song was completed later at Washington Place.The Hawai\u02BBi State Archives preserves a hand-written manuscript by Lili\u02BBuokalani, dated 1878, with the score of the song, the lyrics, Lili\u02BBuokalani's English translation, and her note evidently added later: %22Composed at Maunawili 1878. Played by the Royal Hawaiian Band in San Francisco August 1883 and became very popular.%22 A 1913 score can be seen at the Levy Sheet Music Collection." . "0"^^ . "Andy Williams songs" . .
