Hawaiian Healing Chants and Prayers

E ala e e la e, ka la i ka hikina,
i ka moana, ka moana hohonu,
pi'i ka lewa, ka lewa nu'u i ka hikina,
aia ka la, e ala e!
Arise awaken/arise,
the sun in the east, from the ocean,
the deep ocean, climbing to heaven,
the highest heaven, in the east,
there is the sun, arise!

E ala e Ka la i kahikina I ka moana Ka moana hohonu Pi’i ka lewa Ka lewa nu’u I ka hikina Aia ka la. E ala e!
Awaken/Arise The sun in the east From the ocean The ocean deep Climbing (to) the heaven The heaven highest In the east There is the sun Awaken!

"E ala E" means "this is the way that it is".
The part that means arise is "aia ka la". It's describing the path of the sun: it starts in the east, over the ocean(moana), it comes to over head (nu'u), rising up (aia ka la)>(the musical note is suppose to raise in pitch to symbolize that ascension), E ALA E : (That's the way it is) This Is _ The Way _ [that] This Is; Is Path Is, Be Way Be, I Am the way I Am... etc.

Food is shared in Love
The great breath is exchanged
The Lehua honors and adores
From zenith to horizon
Gratitude to God
Gratitude to our ancestors
Gratitude with love
Gratitude with love

He Mele No Kukaniloko
No Kukaniloko ko'u aloha,
Ke kupa noho kula a o Kalakoa,
Kahi hanau hoi o na alii,
Wohi hoi a o Hawaii nei;
Walea i ke kui lei Ahihi,
Lei hookipa no ka malihini,
Paa mai uka i ka uhiwai;
O ke kehau anu ko ke kuahiwi;
Halihali mai ana i ke ala,
Ke ala o maile Nohoanu;
Auau aku i ka wai o Kuaikua
Wai hooheno a na alii;
Na mamo hoi a Kakuhihewa,
A na pua a ka Na'i Aupuni;
Nana i rula mai a pololei,
Me ka ihe laumeki i ka lima;
A he puuwai koa me ka wiwoole
Imi maluhia no ka lahui;
Hui pau ia mai na ailana,
Mai Hawaii a Niihau
Noho hoomalu ia me ke kaulike
Mamalahoa kanawai;
Hainaia mai ana ka puana,
No Kukaniloko ko'u aloha.

Song of Kukaniloko
For Kukaniloko is my love,
The native born that dwells on the plain of Kalakoa
Birth place indeed of the chiefs
Highest chiefs indeed of Hawaii here
Accustomed to stringing wreaths of ahihi
Wreath of entertainment for the stranger
Finished from upland in the heavy mist
The cold dew of the mountain
Bearing the fragrance
The fragrance of mana that dwells in the cold
Bathe in the water of Kuaikua
Cherished water of the chiefs
The descendants indeed of Kakuhihewa
The offspring of the Conqueror of the Realm
Who ruled wisely
With the barbed spear in the hand
And the brave heart with fearlessness
Seeking peace for the race.
All united are the islands
From Hawaii to Niihau
Swelling in peace with justice
Mamala Hoa is the law
Told is the refrain
For Kukaniloko is my love

Chant for Kapawa
'O Kapawa, 'o ke ali'i o Wai'alua
I hanau i Kukaniloko
'O Wahiawa ke kahua
'O Lihu'e ke ewe
'O Ka'ala ka piko
'O Kapukapuakea ka a'a
O Kaiaka i Maeaea
Ha'ulei i Nukea i Wainakia
I'A'aka i Haleu
I ka la'i malino o Hauola
Ke li'i 'o Kapawa ho'i no
Ho'i no i uka ka waihona
Ho'i no i ka pali kapu o na li'i
He kia'i Kalahiki no Kaka'e
'O Heleipawa ke keiki a Kapawa
He keiki ali'i no Wai'alua i O'ahu
Chant for Kapawa
Kapawa, the chief of Wai'alua,
Was born at Kukaniloko;
Wahiawa the site;
At Lihu'e the placenta,
At Ka'ala the navel cord,
At Kapukapuakea (Heiau) the caul,
(Heiau) of Kaiaka at Maeaea;
He died at Nukea at Wainakia
Through (the surf of) 'A'aka at Haleu,
Through the calm stillness of Hauola,
The chief Kapawa was taken,
Taken upland (in Iao) for laying away,
Taken to the sacred pali of the chiefs,
Kalahiki is the "Watchman" of Kaka'e,
Heleipawa was the son of Kapawa,
A chiefly child of Wai'alua, Oahu

[Translation] The Water of Kane
A query, a question,
I put to you:
Where is the water of Kane?
At the Eastern Gate
5 Where the Sun comes in at Haehae;
There is the water of Kane.
A question I ask of you:
Where is the water of Kane?
Out there with the floating Sun,
p. 259
10 Where cloud-forms rest on Ocean's breast.
Uplifting their forms at Nihoa,
This side the base of Lehua;
There is the water of Kane.
One question I put to you:
15 Where is the water of Kane?
Yonder on mountain peak,
On the ridges steep,
In the valleys deep,
Where the rivers sweep;
20 There is the water of Kane. This question I ask of you:
Where, pray, is the water of Kane?
Yonder, at sea, on the ocean,
In the driving rain,
25 In the heavenly bow,
In the piled-up mist-wraith,
In the blood-red rainfall,
In the ghost-pale cloud-form;
There is the water of Kane. 30 One question I put to you:
Where, where is the water of Kane?
Up on high is the water of Kane,
In the heavenly blue,
In the black piled cloud,
35 In the black-black cloud.
In the black-mottled sacred cloud of the gods;
There is the water of Kane. One question I ask of you:
Where flows the water of Kane?
40 Deep in the ground. in the gushing spring,
In the ducts of Kane and Loa,
A well-spring of water, to quaff,
A water of magic power--
The water of life!
45 Life! O give us this life!
