Pele's Saffron Flame

[Verse 1]
The trade winds whispered through the coconut trees,
Moonlight dancing on the midnight seas.
I closed my eyes beneath the stars so bright,
And drifted into an island night.

[Pre-Chorus]
The mountains glowed with a saffron flame,
Softly calling out my name.

[Chorus]
I dreamed I met the fire goddess Pele,
Dancing where the rivers of lava flow.
She smiled like sunrise over old Hawaiʻi,
With a heart that only island souls can know.
She said, “Respect the land that gives you life,
Love the ocean, sky, and every tree.”
When I woke, the saffron fire was burning,
Deep inside of me.

[Verse 2]
She wore a lei of blossoms kissed by fire,
Eyes that held the earth’s eternal desire.
Every step she took made flowers bloom,
Turning ash into sweet perfume.

[Pre-Chorus]
She laughed, and all the stars aligned,
Leaving every fear behind.

[Chorus]
I dreamed I met the fire goddess Pele,
Dancing where the rivers of lava flow.
She smiled like sunrise over old Hawaiʻi,
With a heart that only island souls can know.
She said, “Carry aloha everywhere,
Share your light for all the world to see.”
When I woke, the saffron fire was burning,
Deep inside of me.

[Bridge]
Was it only just a dream?
Or something older than time?
Some say legends live forever,
If you listen with your heart instead of your mind.

[Final Chorus]
I dreamed I met the fire goddess Pele,
Where the volcano meets the endless sea.
She blessed my soul with ancient island wisdom,
Like a melody upon the breeze.
Now every sunset paints her story,
Every wave sings her memory.
And I’ll forever see her saffron calling,
Across the islands…
Calling me.

[Outro]
E mālama i ka ʻāina…
(Take care of the land.)
E mālama i ke aloha…
(Take care of love.)
And when the trade winds whisper softly…
I’ll remember Pele’s saffron song.
