He Kanaka Meaning

[O wākea ke kāne
Noho ia papahānaumoku
Hānau ʻo Hawaiʻi he moku

[Chorus]
ʻAʻole au he rasta no hoʻi
He kanaka wale no wau
He kanaka nō Hawaiʻi nei
Ē

[Verse 1]
According to my name which is Elijah
The one that I give praise to, his name is Jah
Sorry I don’t believe in your religion
No offense to you it’s just that I’m a Hawaiian
Ever since the day you landed on my island
Many of them passed away and many of them gone
All of them giving the praises to your holy begotten son
My people have to chant and sing “This is my song,”
I say

[Chorus]
ʻAʻole au he rasta no hoʻi
He kanaka wale no wau
He kanaka nō Hawaiʻi nei
Ē
, [Verse 2]
Wāhia ka inoa o Kaʻikēnā
Ua welo mai ka ʻike mai na kūpunā
Huli ka lima a i lalo ka lima
Hoʻi i ka ʻāina aʻe mau ka makona
Ho’opiha i ka lua, o ka inaina
I ka ʻāina Hawaiʻi, e ʻai me ka iʻa
Uʻe ka imu ʻai ka pī ka pua’a
Pela nō ko ka Hawaiʻi nohona
Ē…

[Bridge]
I never gave my praises up to Jah
Cause the race of which I came from was raised on Hāloa so
Mai ka lā hiki ā i ka lā kau
He Hawaiʻi au mau a mau
I said

[Chorus]
ʻAʻole au he rasta no hoʻi
He kanaka wale no wau
He kanaka nō Hawaiʻi nei
Ē

ʻAʻole au he rasta no hoʻi
He kanaka wale no wau
He kanaka nō Hawaiʻi nei
Ē]
