A friend of mine asked me to look up the lyrics to No Ke Ano Ahiahi (In the Evening Time), a Hawaiian song he remembers from childhood.

I wasn’t able to find anything on the net, does anyone possibly have liner notes for the song?

Woo hoo!  
It’s on an archive of Hawai’ian songs, although the home page’s index dosn’t work.  
No I should find out the word to Hawai’i Pono e, so I don’t continue to look like a moron. . . (high school assembies were tough for us Haole kids. . .)
