"Henehene Kou 'Aka" lyrics Israel Kamakawiwo'ole Lyrics "Henehene Kou 'Aka"
[Hawaiian]
Henehene kou 'aka
Kou le'ale'a paha
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
Ka'a uila mākēneki
Hō'onioni kou kino
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
I Kaka'ako mākou
'Ai ana i ka pipi stew
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
I Waikīkī mākou
'Au ana i ke kai
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
I Kapahulu mākou
'Ai ana i ka līpo'a
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
Ha'ina mai ka puana
Kou le'ale'a paha
He mea ma'a mau ia
For you and I
[English]
Your laughter is so contagious
It's fun to be with you
Always a good time
For you and I
The streetcar wheels turn
Vibrating your body
Always a good time
For you and I
To Kaka'ako we go
Eating beef stew
Always a good time
For you and I
To Waikiki we go
Swimming in the sea
Always a good time
For you and I
To Kapahulu we go
Eating seaweed
Always a good time
For you and I
Tell the refrain
It's fun to be with you
Always a good time
For you and I
