E Ala E Lyrics

We, the voices behind the face,
Of the hawaiian nation, the hawaiian race
Rise for justice the day has come
For all our people to stand as one,
E ala e, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ,
E ala e, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ,
(repeat the first verse)
Chorus:
E ala e, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ,
E ala e, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ,

E huli I ka ho'i I ka pâkini alamihi
Gone are the days of the alamihi* ways
E kiko I ka piko o ka mana o ka po'e
The power of the people is the piko*
'o ka piko ke aloha o ka 'âina, o ka 'âina
We the warriors born to live
On what the land and sea can give
Defend our birthright to be free
Give our children liberty,
(repeat chorus)
(repeat verse 2).
E ala e, 'eâ, 'eâ, 'eâ , e ala e (repeated several times...)
