OMG you guys. The DC halau? WROTE A MELE FOR OBAMA. *

He Mele Inoa No Obama. I give you You Tube link rather than embedding so you can click on "more info" and read the text and English translation.

* You probably got this from context, but a mele (pronounced MEH-lay) is a chanted hula.

That's pretty cool. But it could totally use some 'old Hawaiian way' in it.

There IS actually some old Hawai'ian way, it's just hard to see in the video.
