A beautiful Hawaiian song in a beautiful Hawaiian setting and by a beautiful Hawaiian woman. Folks, it doesn't get any better than this on this planet. I'm proud of our Hawaiian language and culture.
I'm Mexican, my boyfriend is hawaiian/tahitian and he wants me to dance this at our wedding in the future and Im so exited to learn this beautiful dance :)
Translation: The flower blossoms from the sun The land lives from the rain My beloved kiele flower The thick sweet smell here To cherish to the top The presiousness in my heart My beloved kiele flower The beautiful brightness of the flower The wind touches the land My love the lei is for our love oooh oooh 2nd verse again My love the lei is for our love
Oh my God, I'm sitting here voting for the Grammy Awards (I'm a NARAS member). This song is in the Best Regional Roots Category, and I was so moved I had to find it. I'm voting for you, Josh. Beautiful performance.
Soooo my pleasure! I played it about 10 times in a row. Wonderful harmonies. I also posted it on both my FB pages. Congratulations on the nomination Josh, and good luck. But remember: being NOMINATED for a GRAMMY Award is the prize! Big love...
I was so happy to hear REAL music out of all those submissions! My ears were seriously hurting - then I got to your lovely voice. How very refreshing. Good luck at the GRAMMYs, my friend!
My family and I danced with Uncle Kunewa when he still had the halau in California... I was so sad when the studio shut down so he could move back home to Hawaii to help take care of the main group there. This group always has the most beautiful dancers and always do so well at Merrie monarch.
I'm from the other side of the Eart and have absolutely no clue about Your wonderfull Language and Sins but It's the fifth time I'm watching this Video and can't help but feel very emotional. Tears are filling up my Eyes and I'm smiling like a Child on Christmas. Thank You so much for this Track and the Video.

I fell in love with your music and dancers. I was touched by it that it brought tears to my eyes. This so beautiful. May God continue to bless you and your work.
I did hula @ my wedding in 1996, help from my husband's childhood halau. Wish I could do it over again with all the beautiful ideas I've seen since. 🌺🤙❤️
When I first watched this about 4 years ago, I started crying without even noticing - the peace, love and happiness in this 4 minute clip still amazes me I follow Julyen sice this time, she’s so pure and beautiful in every way and I am grateful she performed to this amazing song and changed a little part of my heart and soul with this ❤️❤️❤️
Props to the video crew for keeping the condos and apts out of the background. I used to live right across the street from here. It's a beautiful oasis in the middle of a concrete jungle
The flower blossoms from the sun ola no ka'aina i kaua The land lives from the rain e ku'u pua kiele nani e My beautiful Gardenia flower ko'ala o nauna e maku nei The thick sweet smell here e kua ho'oheno ai luna To cherish to the top e hiwahiwa na kapu'uwai The presiousness in my heart e ku'u pua kiele nani e My beautiful Gardenia flower
I am born in South Africa. My roots are a combination of Khoisan or Griqua and ancestors that originated from somewhere in Polynesia. The music, beauty and culture of all my ancestors is all reflected here and deeply connects with my spirit🙏🏽
Beautiful like ASL song dance - I hope that it is referred to the deaf community because they can feel the vibrations like I can - and song fits the dance perfectly. Bravo! Very inclusive too!
Braddah Josh, I just listened to E O Mai. The Tatofi Sons of MakaWOW was brilliant. Mahalo for the ear candy. So classy, I love the restraint when I hear you sing. You always stay true to the music and yourself. You look after these treasures with the compassion of a true Ambassador of Hawaiian Culture. Our Culture. 🌊🏄♀️🌊ALOHA😎
Just came across this video......Absolutely beautiful song, absolutely beautiful voice, absolutely beautiful setting, absolutely beautiful dancer, absolutely beautiful dance, absolutely beautiful dress, absolutely beautiful smile........it sure makes all the ugliness going on in the world today seem so small and insignificant, albeit for the few minutes this video is playing.

When is the wedding?
So how was the wedding?
Did you dance it??
That’s cool just make sure he isn’t forcing you into it
As long as he sings it while you hula.
The dancer is so graceful & beautiful. The song is so peaceful.
My daughter will only nap to your songs, how beautiful is that 🥲

Thank you for posting an actual translation of the lyrics. I'm not fluent in olelo Hawaii, but I know the other translations out there are inaccurate.
Thank you for the translation. Wow! The words are just as beautiful as the melody 🤍🤍🤍💚💚💚
Mahalo! Nui!!
Is this song written for a grandmother? Seems like it could be and even an ipo.
Thank you SO much. God bless.😘

One of my Top 5 Hawai'ian songs, made even more beautiful by this perfect hula accompaniment. Much aloha ~
Joshの歌声は最高！映像や録音ではなく直接聞きたいです。ハワイの入国が楽に出来る様になったら真っ先に聞きに行きたいです。
I know this song and the dancing are beautiful, but this dancer, Julyen, is just STUNNING!
