Thanks to all our great resources with words... I recently was helped with identifying and finding words for: "Ka'a Uluwehi o Ke Kai"... I'd like to add the last tag, that HAPA uses AFTER their "Ha'ina mai ka puana...Anoni me ke lipalu" verse. It's a musical tag, with:
"He ho'i ho mai, no no, ka aina i?i tu amo'o, ka la hui";
then the final turnarounds on guitar. Forgive and CORRECT any syllabic approximations! Any clarification and interpretation is appreciated. G
Sarah helped me with this not too long ago over email. Here's what she wrote:
quote:E ho`i hou mai ana No ka `äina iwikuamo`o No ka lähui
Returning (coming back) to (because of) the family (ancestral) land [as after a long absence] to (because of) the nation/tribe/people [i.e. one's own people]
