♫ Ke Alaula ♪ (with lyrics) ~ Makaha Sons

~ 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.

Nani Girl Nani Girl...I know what you feeling in many ways. During Operation Desert Storm I was stationed out in Germany before we were sent to Kuwait back in ‘89-91. And the only thing that kept me sane was listening to Traditional Hawaiian music from back home. It was a time when JAWAIIAN music was brewing up huge storms back on the islands. I liked a little that was being recorded at the time...Braddah Waltah, Hoaikane(not the hardcore stuff they ended up doing. But the “Kailua Kona” and “Romeo” stuff from their ISLAND IRIE CD was cool)Mana’o Company were among a handful I could listen to for spurts if I was in the mood to get hyped up. But I was definitely more of the Traditional stuff I grew up hearing from my Tutu. -Hui ‘Ohana/Dennis Pavao & Uncle Led(Their solo recordings) -Kahauanu Lake Trio -Makaha Sons of Niihau -Ho’opi’i Brothers -Aunty Genoa Keawe -Gary Haleamau Etc... All brought me a little closer to home. Not sure if you were that into Hawaiian music. But I believe you know what I’m trying to say. Lol. Take care, sister. And Aloha no
