Lyrics

Oh here sits a monkey in the chair chair chair
He lost all the true friends she had last year
So rise upon your feet and greet the first you meet,
the happiest one I know.

2. Here cries a bear behind a chair chair chair…the fuzziest one I know.
3. Here lies a bug under a rug rug rug…the littlest one I know.
4. Here comes a pup beside the pup pup pup…the cutest one I know.

Verse (A)
Coffee grows on white oak trees;
The river flows with brandy.
Go choose a girl to dance with thee,
As sweet as ‘lasses candy.

Four in the middle and you can’t jump Josie,
Four in the middle and you can’t jump Josie,
Four in the middle and you can’t jump Josie,
Hello, Susan Brown.

Here we go ’round the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush,
Here we go ’round the mulberry bush so early in the morning.

This is the way we wash our face, wash our face, wash our face.

This is the way we comb our hair…

This is the way we brush our teeth…

This is the way we put on our clothes…

E kakali mālie ʻoe
A laʻi pono ka makani

2. Auhea wale ana `oe
Uhiwai o Ka`ala

Translation

1. You must not be anxious to rush
Into the water that appears serene
You must wait patiently
Until the wind calms down

2. Pay attention
Fog of Ka`ala
Associated with the Malua wind
The wind of the land

3. The one thing I worry about
Is the strong, chilly, northwesterly wind
That pierces the skin
And causes my bones to shiver

4. Unbelievable
The sweet voice of the land shells
Singing in the still night
In the late night

Verse 2, stanza 2, Ka`ala is the highest mountain on O`ahu rising 3938 feet on the leeward coast. Stanza 3, Malua is the
sea breeze. Verse 3, stanza 2, Kiu is a strong, chilly, northwesterly wind. Translation by Kaiu Kanoa (source)

Lyrics

Estas son las mañanitas
Que cantaba el Rey David
A las muchachas bonitas
Se las cantamos aquí.
Despierta, mi bien, despierta.
Mira qué ya amaneció
Y a los pajaritos cantan,
La luna ya se metió.
Qué linda esta la mañana
En que vengo a saludarte.
Venimos todos con gusto
Y placer a felicitarte.
Ya viene amaneciendo
Y a la luz que el día nos dió.
Levantate de mañana,
Mira que ya amaneció.

Translation

These are the mornings
When King David sang
To the beautiful girls
We sing them now.
Wake up, my dear, wake up.
Look, now it has dawned,
And the birds sing,
The moon just went down.
How beautiful is the morning
When I come to greet you.
We all come with gusto
And pleasure to congratulate you.
Now comes the dawn
And the light that the day gave us.
Get up this morning,
Look now it has dawned.

There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul

But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again. (Refrain)

And if you lack for knowledge, He’ll not refuse to lend. (Refrain)

Yellowing Banana Leaf

1. Pay attention, you banana
The yellowing banana leaf of the mountains

2. You brag about your youthful physique
About the mountain apples half ripe

3. Go after and get to the top
To cut the leaf bud of the lehua

4. You are not the `ilima flower
So becoming, the yellow on my shoulders

5. Here I am, the lehua flower
Suitable for loving

6. What is my great fault
You turn away, without looking at me|

7. That person is unsuitable and not desirable
A towel damp with sweat

8. The story is told
The yellowing-leafed banana of the mountain

Lyrics

1. Green grow the lilacs all sparking with dew.
I’m lonely my darling since parting with you;
But you our next meeting I hope to prove true,
And change three green lilacs to the red white and blue.

2. On top of the mountain where green lilacs grow
And down in the valley where bright waters flow,
We’ll meet there together our love to renew,
And change the green lilacs to the red white and blue.
