Makana, Ka Wailele o Nu'uanu









This is how I love: quietly, away from the spotlight, but for the rest of my life. 




Hawaiian Lyrics:
 I laila i nä pali `ike ai
Ka wailele 'o Nu`uanu
E ho`okahe pau `ole
He wai nö ia e iho ai
E ka`aka`a kou maka e `ike ai
Ke kahe nei ka wailele pahihi
`Ole mai nö
He kahe mau nö ia




English Translation:
There on the cliffs can be seen
The waterfall of Nu`uanu
It never stops flowing
It just keeps coming down
The waterfall is flowing
It keeps on flowing
Never locked
It flows forever

We must never permit the voice of humanity
within us to be silenced. It is Man's sympathy with all creatures that first makes him a Man.

--Albert Schweitzer

Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.


--Viktor E. Frankl
