Hawaiʻi Aloha, written by Rev. Lorenzo Lyons, is a song held close to the heart by Native Hawaiians and kamaʻāina (those familiar with Hawaiʻi) alike. Utilized as the closing mele (song) of many Hawaiʻi gatherings by enveloping participants in a lei of aloha, this mele also called Kuʻu One Hānau is a beloved anthem that shares the aloha we all have for Hawaiʻi and is a reminder of the value of aloha we are meant to share with one another. Join us to learn the mele and the deeper meaning of this Hawaiʻi tradition.
