Hawai`i` ?78

	Ua mau ke ea o ka 'âina i ka pono 'o Hawai'i
	Ua mau ke ea o ka 'âina i ka pono 'o Hawai'i
	Ua mau ke ea o ka 'âina i ka pono 'o Hawai'i
	Ua mau ke ea o ka 'âina i ka pono 'o Hawai'i
	If just for a day our king and queen
	Would visit all these islands and saw everything
	How would they feel about the changes of our land
	Could you just imagine if they were around
	And saw highways on their sacred grounds
	How would they feel about this modern city life?
	Tears would come from each other's eyes
	As they would stop to realize
	That our people are in great, great danger now
	How would they feel?
	Would their smiles be content, 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.
	Could you just imagine they came back
	And saw traffic lights and railroad tracks
	How would they feel about this modern city life
	Tears would come from each other's eyes
	As they would stop to realize
	That our land is in great, great danger now.
	All the fighting that the King has done
	To conquer all these islands, now these condominiums
	How would he feel if he saw Hawai'i nei?
	How would he feel? Would his smile be content, 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.
