He Make'e Wa'a
ʻOlelo Hawaiʻi
He hana hoʻomau kēia; ke aʻo mau nei mākou i ka ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi.
E kala mai i nā hemahema o ka ʻōlelo, no ka mea, ʻaʻole mākou he poʻe maʻa i ka ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi.
Mahalo nui iā ʻoukou no ko ʻoukou kōkua a me ko ʻoukou hoʻoponopono ʻoluʻolu.
E ʻimi i ka moʻokūʻauhau, nā kuʻuna, a me nā waiwai o ka waʻa Hawaiʻi.

ʻAʻole naʻe he mea halihali kanaka wale nō kēlā mau waʻa; ʻo lākou nō ke kumu o ka huakaʻi ʻimi ʻāina, ke kumu ola o ke kanaka, a me ke ala e lawe ai i ka nohona a me ka ʻike ma luna o ke kai nui o ke Kai Pākīpika.
ʻAʻole nō hoʻi no ka holo wale nō kēia mau waʻa. Ma o lākou lā e ulu ai ka noʻonoʻo a me ke ʻano o ka nohona o nā kānaka o kēlā me kēia kaiāulu o ke Kai Pākīpika.
ʻO ke kālai ʻana, ke hoʻokele ʻana, a me ka mālama ʻana i ka waʻa, he mea pili loa ia i nā waiwai o ke kaiāulu—ke kūkā pū ʻana, ka mahalo i ke kai a me ke kaiāulu, ka ʻike kūpuna, a me ke kuleana like o nā kānaka a pau.
ʻAʻole he mea hana wale nō ka waʻa; he hōʻike ia no ka ʻike a me ke ʻano o ka lāhui, a he hōʻailona nō hoʻi no ka moʻokūʻauhau a me ka moʻolelo kumu.
No laila, he waʻa ke kūpaʻa, he waʻa ke naʻauao, a he waʻa nō hoʻi ke kū mau ʻana o ka nohona o nā kānaka o ke Kai Pākīpika.
He waʻa ko kēlā mokupuni kēia mokupuni o ke Kai Pākīpika, a ʻokoʻa nō ke ʻano o kēlā me kēia waʻa e like me nā mea i ulu a i loaʻa ma ia ʻāina. ʻO ke ʻano o ka hana ʻana i kēia mau waʻa, ua pili pono nō ia i ke kai a puni a me nā makani e pā mau ana ma ia mau mokupuni.
Ua hāʻawi mai nō ka ʻāina momona o Hawaiʻi i nā mea he nui i ka lāhui Hawaiʻi, he mau mea i loaʻa ʻole ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe o ke Kai Pākīpika.
Ua kōkua pū nō hoʻi ke ʻano o ka ʻāina a me ka noʻonoʻo o nā kānaka o ke kai i ka ulu ʻana o ka waʻa kūikawā—he waʻa ikaika, he waʻa pono i ke kai.
Nā mea nāna e hoʻokaʻawale i ka waʻa i kona ʻano he waʻa Hawaiʻi.
ʻO wai ʻo He Makeʻe Waʻa?
ʻO ka manaʻo o Makeʻe Waʻa, ʻo ia nō ke aloha i ka waʻa Hawaiʻi.
Aia nō i loko o nā moʻolelo a me nā kuʻuna o ka waʻa Hawaiʻi nā haʻawina e ola ai ke kanaka ma ka mokupuni i kēia au hou.
Ke hoʻomau nei nā kānaka o kēia hui i nā kuʻuna a me nā hana o ka waʻa Hawaiʻi kuʻuna, me ka mālama pū ʻana i ka pili o ia mau mea i kēia au e neʻe nei.
Mahalo nui ʻia aku nā kānaka i kaʻana mai me ka lokomaikaʻi i ko lākou ʻike waiwai, a me nā mea i haku a paʻi i nā hana e mālama ana a e hoʻolaha ana i ka moʻolelo o ka waʻa Hawaiʻi.
ʻO ʻoukou nō nā kukui o ko kākou ʻike kuʻuna, nā mea nāna e hāpai i ke kūpaʻa o ka waʻa i kēia au e neʻe nei.
