Ka Aina Aloha Pauole

Hawaiian Lyrics:

E ku’u aina hanau
A’ole a e minamina

Ka home o na kupuna
Malama pono mai makou

Lohe ia na mo’olelo
Ia na po’e kupuna

Aloha no ka mea hau’oli
Maloko mai na pu’uwai

He aloha nui na kupuna
O ke ia aina e

Ka aina aloha pau’ole
Wala’au ana na opio

Ka aina aloha ahe malama
No ka mea ho’okahi

Meke aloha poina ‘ole

English Translation:

My land of birth
Taken not for granted or wasted

The home of our ancestors
This we must care for

Listen to the words and heed
The wisdom of our ancestors

Of our heritage, love and happiness
From deep within our hearts

The great love of our ancestors
For this, our land

The land of neverending love
Pass this on to our children

To love and take care of this land
For it is of greatness, #1

Truly with unforgotten love
