ʻAI PŌHAKU Booty Shorts
ʻAI PŌHAKU Booty Shorts
Written in January 1893 by Ellen Kehoʻohiwaokalani Wright Prendergast shortly after the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom, the Mele ʻAi Pōhaku (Stone-Eating Song), or Mele Aloha ʻĀina (Patriots’s Song), is now more commonly known as Kaulana Nā Pua.
The line, “Ua lawa mākou i ka pōhaku,” translates to, “We are satisfied with stones.” Kaona can take it to mean a few different ways to be “satisfied” with stones. Kanaka Maoli, or Native Hawaiians, are interested in maintaining autonomy over our own land rather than any sum of money.
