Mahalo Nui. Let joy be born from our sadness. May we thrive and restore what has been taken using our wit, intelligence, and careful planning with education and advocacy rising to the forefront of our consciousness. My we stand together united as a nation.
Kaulana Na Pua is a very moving piece of music! Thank you for presenting it!
Very nice and moving words about your people, I am not Hawaiian but rather of Latin descent specifically, from South America. However, I have nothing but LOVE for the Polynesian culture as I have visited Hawaii on many occasions over the years and I have 4 step siblings that were born and raised on Oahu, HI. Through them I learned so much about Hawaiian/Jawaiian and Reggae music and love musical acts like Kapena, Hapa, HSB, Soul Free, Nawi, Keali'i Reichel, Bruddah IZ and many others. Now I fully understand what the song Kaulana Na Pua is about which I first heard by Nawi in 2000 such beautiful angelic voices these 3 sisters have. Aloha Hawaiian Pride Rock On!!!
A beautiful song and great message. I was sadden by the story of your nation. But have faith in the courage you all show. Through keeping your language and culture alive and well. I'm Tiwi and Anmatyerre. My people are the Indigenous people of Australia.
very nice good to hear the children of hawaii famous are the children of hawaii..
Never tired is listening to this hymn
The translation is beautiful and powerful. It is also known as The Stone eaters' Song. Just a reminder: At the time of the overthrow in 1893, many peoples from all over the world became Hawaiian citizens, who were ethnic Hawaiians. They threw in their lot with the Hawaiians and many are there to this day. Get off the beach and go through the Iolani Palace. See the famous
quilt made by the Queen & her ladies when she was imprisoned there. There has never been a treaty of annexation. And there will never be. Ku Ki ai Mauna
Mahalo for educating and sharing. God bless you folks!
Aloha to all people responsible for this video and message of "Kaulana Na Pua." Be true to your traditions, culture, and heritage.
I was born and raised here in Hawaii of Chinese ancestry !!!! I thank you all native Hawaiians for your kind hospitality afforded me
