I've learned so much with your video about Hula history ! it's giving me a better understanding of the deep relation between Mele which i intuitivly knew and evry move which is applying to the words.. I Love to hear you talk, sounds like i am Hawaaian too in my Heart !
So much Aloha 🌸 💚
Greetings from France 💙

“I” come forth from the void into light,
Pua mai au mai ka po iloko o ka malamalama,

“I” am the breath that nurtures life,
Owau no ka ha, ka mauli ola,

“I” am that emptiness, that hollowness beyond all consciousness,
Owau no ka poho, ke ka’ele mawaho a’e o no ike apau.

The “I”, the Id, the All.
Ka “I”, Ke Kino Iho, na Mea Apau.

“I” draw my bow of rainbows across the waters,
Ka a’e au “I” ku’u pi’o o na anuenue mawaho a’e o na kai a pau,

The continuum of minds with matters.
Ka ho’omaumau o na mana’o ame na mea a pau.

“I” am the incoming and outgoing of breath,
Owau no ka “Ho” a me ka “Ha”,

The invisible, untouchable breeze,
He huna ka makani nahenahe,

The undefinable atom of creation.
Ka “Hua” huna o Kumulipo.

“I” AM THE “I”.
Owau no ka “I”. 🌈

I wish I would've took the time to learn the language.

it's a wonderful language, but until now I haven't been able to find a video of spoken hawaiian that has not an evident american english influence to it, so I fear its original pronounciation is gone forever

[jonahpalomata]

that's good even though you're part of the united state you preserve your culture and language ❤ in 1930's Hawaii Philippines and mariana island is part of US territory but luckily Philippines is independent in 1946 from US

I came here to confirm what Jo Koy saying is true. 😅

[jonathanbyrd]
