Mele Kalikimaka
R. Alex Anderson
'Mele Kalikimaka' is the thing to say on a bright Hawaiian Christmas day
That’s the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
'Mele Kalikimaka' is Hawaii’s way to say 'Merry Christmas' to you
Here we know that Christmas will be green and warm and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the silver stars at night
'Mele Kalikimaka' is Hawaii’s way to say 'Merry Christmas'
A one bright, long white Christmas
To say 'Merry Christmas' to you
'Mele Kalikimaka' 'Merry Christmas'
