hawai'i 78 introduction - israel kamakawiwo'ole lyrics

ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i

(spoken)
i feel free now, you know? i was just confined like, you know?
my mom was born on ni`ihau. my dad was born here
my dad, he was a…he worked for the navy. down at pwca
public works. down pearl harbor
oh my mother was tight ah…was tight. my poppa was tight ah
my poppa died when he–when i was 10 i think
…i was 10 years old. but every once in a while, he come
back you know. …i trip….. just like couple of weeks ago
i was sleeping my place, and then my mother and auntie nina came…

how would they feel?
would their smiles be content rather then cry?
cry for the gods
cry for the people
cry for the land that was taken away
and then yet you’ll find hawai`i

(spoken)
he loved music brah
he had a m-ssive heart attack

the way that–just depression brah. he was real depressed
i was on the same course he was going
and he knew that too. and that’s why he came back
and tell me that “eh”–’cause he did come back and told me that
“eh, ’cause, you know, no be scared. there’s people here for
help you brah”. it’s kinda like telling me, if he
had them…he would still be here. i still believe if he had called me
he’d be alive
…’cause he died of a broken heart brah

how would he feel?
would his smiles be content rather then cry?
cry for the gods
cry for the people
cry for the land that was taken away
and then yet you’ll find hawai’i

ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono o hawai`i
