I lived in Hawaii from 1973 to 1981 and my two favorite Hawaiian artist were the Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau and the Brothers Cazimero. They were the greatest years of my life, many happy memories. This song, like others they do bring back those memories vividly. I'm in my 70's now, but I hope to go back someday and relive them before it's too late. Mahalo nui loa for the memories! Aloha!
My name is Kealaula and I feel so blessed to be named after this song and have such a beautiful meaning to it (the dawning) no one knows how much I'm blessed .
Aloha Nui Aloha Brudda! Names are prophetic so walk in your destiny and bring us a new Alaua with nui Aloha. Mahalo Nui Loa. You are already blessed in that you are aware of this.
When my oldest son was very young he couldn’t sleep. Luckily I was stationed in Hawaii and I’d put him in his carseat, drive around and listen to 105.1 and the gentle Hawaiian tunes would put him to sleep.
So sorry to hear of John's passing. We lived in Hawaii for 7 years and I fell in love with Hawaiian music. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends. I will miss his voice, as will anyone who loves Hawaii and it's beautiful and unique music. Warmest personal regards, Tina

KE ALAULA ~
E Kumuola, e ku’u tutu
Poha mai i ka ‘onohi ula
Wehe ‘ia ke alaula
Mai ka mole, ke kikowaena
Ha’ alulu ke kumu honua
Haku ‘iku’i i ka ‘aina nei
Wehe ‘ia ke alaula
Hoaka ‘o Kamawaipolani
Hane’ ene’ e hele i kai
‘Oni me ka muliwai ola
Wehe ‘ia ke alaula
Uhi pono i ke ea
Puana ka ha ‘ina
Ho ‘okukaulani i hei kapu
Wehe ‘ia ke alaula
No nahanauna nei
~~
Oh, Kumuola, my tutu
Burst with rays of fire
Opened a flaming pathway
From the source, the center
The foundation trembled
Echoed throughout the land
Opened a stream of life
Appeared Kamawaipolani
Moving toward the sea
Onward like a living river
Opened a seaward path
Enveloped in life’s breath
The story is told
Restore this sacred domain
Opened the path of life
For the generation of this land
~~
Ha’lau Na Mamoali’i O Ka’ uiki with its kumu hula Namahana Kalama-Panui of Hana, Maui was the inspiration for this song.
“Ke Alaula,” the dawning, is a new horizon, a new sunrise, a new ray of hope in the continuing legacy of the Makaha Sons - formerly known as, The Makaha Sons of Ni’ihau.

Err, wehe ia ke alaula. Sorry, my 'a' key stuck for some reason. Anyway, thank you for this blast from the past.
The word "tutu" should mean grandpa or grandma, and I think that "my" should be written like "ko'u" on Hawaiian!!
Inspired me to do Hula..
