Hukilau

Hukilau

Love this old picture of a Hawaiian luau, circa 1963. At some point, this song must have been sung:

The Hukilau Song

Oh we're going to a Hukilau

A huki huki huki huki Hukilau

Everybody loves the Hukilau

Where the laulau is the kaukau at the lû`au

We throw our nets out into the sea

And all the `ama`ama come a-swimming to me

Oh, we're going to a Hukilau

A huki huki huki Hukilau

What a beautiful day for fishing

That old Hawaiian way

Where the Hukilau nets are swishing

Down in old Lâ`ie bay
