Lā Kūʻokoʻa

Ka Hae Nani ‘o Hawai‘i
E mau kona welo ‘ana

“You’re the lā to my Kū‘okoa and Ea to my lungs.” - @mauli.ola

I will forever protest the illegal annexation of the my ancestral homelands of Hawai‘i to the United States of America.

I will forever be proud to stand with alongside many Kia‘i reclaiming our independence and our birthright of sovereignty with every breath, every ceremony, and every action.

I will forever honor the ones who came before who never stopped loving our lands, our life ways, and our people.

I will forever protect Mauna Kea with my whole heart and my whole soul.

I will forever be proud to have been born Kanaka Maoli.

I will forever be proud to be an Aloha ‘Āina.

E mau ke ea o ka ‘āina i ka pono, i ke aloha.

Hau‘oli Lā Kū‘oko‘a
