Molokaʻi, The Friendly Isle - by Ivy Hanakahi Woo |
Come and visit our friendly island Where they greet you with a friendly smile Dancing at the Seaside 'neath the moon so bright Molokaʻi, the friendly isle We'd go swimming at Hālawa falls And fishing at Honouli Wai Visit the pali and the coconut grove Molokaʻi, the friendly isle Kamaʻāina's will tell you stories Of our homestead and legends, too Visit all the churches lining up in rows Molokaʻi, the friendly isle When you leave us from homestead fields Our aloha goes with you, too Remember us and our island fair Molokaʻi, the friendly isle |
