I have a wonderful chant teacher who lives on the Big Island.  Her name is Kehau Hori.   She grew up on the Big Island and attended Aunty Margaret Machado's Lomi Lomi program in the 1990's.  Kehau was also one of my hula teachers on the Big Island.  She is a woman of many talents!

Kehau gave me permission to teach others a chant she wrote a few years ago when the Big Island was experiencing a drought.  I asked if I could try it here in Wisconsin this past summer...I was able to teach it to others.  I'm pretty sure the Hawaiian Gods helped us out:)  Mahalo Ke Akua for sending the clouds and the rains:)

Ua O Kalani  The Rains of Heaven

E Aloha E Lono

E Aloha E Ku

E Aloha E Kane a me Kanaloa

E hoi'mai na opua o kalani

E hoi'mai na opua o kuahiwi

E hoi'mai na opua o ka'moana

Mai ka lahui o nui na opua

Mai ka ua nui i kalani

Mai ka ua uluwehiwehi

E Aloha E Lono

E Aloha E Ku

E Aloha E Kane a me Kanaloa

Amama Ua Noa

The Rains are free...the prayer is free
