Those of us who know Israel Kamakawiwo'ole probably know him singing his most famous medly of Over the Rainbow and It's a Wonderful World. But Iz was a strong presence for Hawaiian Pride and Hawaiian Separatism, and here he sings in the tongue of his ancestors. I will put the lyric translation in the comments.

Aloha wau ia `oe ku`uipo
Ku`u lei momi ku`u milimili
O ka heka `oe ona pua
O ke kupuna a`e hi`i poi nei
Hau`oli ka mana`o ke `ike aku
Kou maka palupalu e ke aloha
He aloha i pili ia ika pu`uwai
Ahe lei hi`ehi`e na ka makua
Puana ka inoa o ku`uipo
Ku`u lei nani lei maka mae
He nohea oe i ku`u maka
E ka pua u`i oe o na lani
The Beautiful Flower
I love you, my sweetheart
A lei of pearls to caress
You are the choice flower
Cherished by grandparents
Joyful thoughts
Your gentle loving eyes
Bring love close to the heart
A lei, the delight of your parents
Tell again the name-song of my sweetheart
A treasured and beautiful lei
You are loveliness in my sight
You are a beautiful flower of the heavens
