He 'Olu - Julian Keikilani Ako

I ka malu o Maunakea
He `olu, he `olu, he `olu

Leia `o Waimea i ka `ohu
Anuanu, ma`ema`e i ka la`i
Na ka ua kilihune i ho`opulu i nä pua
Ko`i`i ka lehua ma ka noe

Puni `o Waimea i nä pu`u
He nani kamaha`o i ka uluwehi
Kau mai nei ka mana`o piha i ka `oli`oli
Kulukulu ka waimaka i ka nani

Aia i Waimea he home `olu
Me ke aloha, hämama, pumehana
Na Mäpuana waipahë i ho`okipa `olu`olu
I ka pö`ai hoa i luana mai

Mahalo, e Waimea, i kou nani
I kou `ohu, kou uluwehi, kou la`ikü
`O ka hali`a aloha ke hü wale mai nei
No ka home o ku`u mau hoa.
I ka malu o Maunakea
He `olu, he `olu, he `olu!

In the shelter of Maunakea
Comfort, kindness, and graciousness are to be found!

Waimea is adorned with the thick mist,
Crisp and clean in the tranquility.
The gentle rain drenched the flowers
And the lehua blossom is fresh in the mist.

Waimea is encircled by hills,
A wondrous beauty in the lush verdure.
A joyful thought comes to mind
And the beauty moves one to tears.

There in Waimea is a gracious home
With open and warm love.
Gentle Mäpuana graciously welcomed us
To relax in a circle of friends.

Thank you, Waimea, for your beauty.
For your thick mist, your lush verdure, your serenity.
Loving memories well up from within
Of the home of my dear friends.
In the shelter of Maunakea
Comfort, kindness, and graciousness are to be found!
