'Äina [Hawaiian translation]

I am mountains rising high above the valleys

I am the in-between where trade winds ramble free

I am the red hot rock turning coal black in the ocean

I am the shore extending deep into the sea

I am the shore extending deep into the sea

Chorus:

'Äina, 'Äina, Ua mau ke ea o ka 'aina i ka pono, 'Äina

I am life to those who sink their roots into me

I am the walls you build with stone cut from my heart

I am the shoulders on these roads you carve across my back

I am the very grounds where life foundation starts

I am the very grounds where life foundation starts

Chorus x 2

I am the life of the land preserved in righteousness

I am a place my children proudly call their home

I am the soil that men have fought to gain for power

I am a resting place for bones of those long gone

I am a resting place for bones of those long gone

Chorus x 2
