He Mele No Lilo
Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu & Kamehameha Schools Children
A Song for Lilo
The greatest gratitude to her Majesty
The Queen of Hawaii, Liliʻuokalani
Who captured the rainbow watercolors
Flashes of unmatched colors
To see the rising dawn
From the vastness of Hawaii to Kauai
Kalakaua is his name
The flower that never withers in the Sun
The flower blooms on the mountain
The high hill of Mauna Kea
Brilliant white is Kilauea
Illuminating the Sacred Woman
At the top of Uwekahuna
It's the sacred cliff of Ka'auea
The king of the bird catchers arrives
Adorned with mamo feathers
The beautiful flower of Hawaii
Kalakaua is his name
Kalakaua is his name
The flower that never withers in the Sun
The flower blooms on the mountain
The high hill of Mauna Kea
Brilliant white is Kilauea
Illuminating the Sacred Woman
At the top of Uwekahuna
It's the sacred cliff of Ka'auea
The greatest gratitude to her Majesty
The Queen of Hawaii, Liliʻuokalani
The king of the bird catchers arrives
Adorned with mamo feathers
The beautiful flower of Hawaii
Kalakaua is his name
A song for our chief Kalakaua, cast forth!
