The Hawaiian Islands Hula

The Honolulu Festival is Hawaii’s premier cultural event, promoting understanding, economic cooperation and ethnic harmony between the people of Hawaii and the Asia-Pacific region. Each year, the Festival draws thousands of new and returning spectators who are looking for an experience beyond Hawaii.

    Si, deje el nombre de las canciones arriba. Sorry, alohalondon, I should have used “reply.” I gave the names of the 3 songs — the longest in the middle being “Nani Wai`ale`ale” — and explained that they were honoring various islands in the Hawaiian chain, with their songs and dances. I should have put it also in English. LOVE your videos! [Thomas is my friend, too -- small world.]

    Primeramente, un pedacito de “Kaimana Hila” (traduce: Diamond Head). Los hombres bailan a “Nani Wai`ale`ale” describiendo la isla de Kaua`i y su montana grande, que se llama Wai`ale`ale. Finalmente, las chicas bailan para otra isla, Hawai`i, y la ciudad capital, Hilo, con “Hilo Hula.” Esta cancion dice, “Kaulana mai ne o Hilo …”, “Famoso es Hilo.” Todos bailan y cantan en homenaje, una siquendo la otra, a cada isla de Hawai`i. Espero que pueden entender mi pobre Espanol! Aloha!
