AS I TRAVELED FROM PLACE TO PLACE
SOME FAMILIAR AND SOME STRANGE
TO HEAR THE ANCIENT CHANTING OF OUR HOME
AS I’VE LISTENED TO THE STORIES
MY EYES HAVE SEEN THE GLORY
SO LET US RAISE OUR VOICE IN SONG TO SAVE OUR LAND
CHORUS:
ALL HAWAI’I STANDS TOGETHER
IT IS NOW AND FOREVER TO RAISE OUR VOICES
AND HOLD YOUR BANNERS HIGH
WE SHALL STAND AS A NATION
TO GUIDE THE DESTINY OF OUR GENERATION
TO SING AND PRAISE, THE GLORY OF OUR LAND.
WITHIN STONE WALLS AND CITIES OF REFUGE,
WE LEARN THE SACRED WAYS
UPON WAIPI’O VALLEY FLOOR,
THE ANCIENT BATTLES RAGE
FROM THE BARREN SLOPES OF KAHO’OLAWE
TO THE SHORES OF KAHANA BAY
WE SHALL CLAIM OUR LANDS FROM THE BARKING SANDS,
TO THE VALLEYS OF HANALEI
CHORUS:
FROM THE FIERY PIT OF TUTU PELE,
I HEAR MY MOTHER’S CALL
OLD TUTU KANE AND MAUNA KEA,
SEND THEIR LOVE TO ALL
TO STAND AS ONE BENEATH THE SUN,
BLESSING FROM HALEAKALA
FOR OUR SWEET KA’ALA AND WAI’ALE’ALE
WHERE THE GREATEST WATER FALL
HUI:
HAWAI’I LOA, KU LIKE KAKOU

A LANAKILA, NA KINI E
