Ka- Luna Ho'omalu Ha'io-lelo No- 'Oihana Mahi'ai

(The Chairman's Speech on Agriculture)

Ma ka makahiki umikumaiwa kanaha kumu ewalu, ua lawe ka Luna Ho'omalu aloha 'ia o kona ha'io-lelo no- 'oihana maha'ai kaulana. (In 1948 the beloved Chairman delivered his famous speech on agriculture).

Ua pili aloha ke-ia ha'io-lelo no na- poe apau o ka honua. (This speech is loved by all the peoples of the world). Lehulehu na- hau'oli limahana ku- i mau laina loihi no hola nui i ku-ai mai nui na- kopena mau o ke-ia ha'io-lelo aloha 'ia. (Huge numbers of joyous workers stand in long lines to buy many copies of this beloved speech.)

Aleki: A, aloha Kakili, ua ku ma ka laina no iwakalua hola no ku-ai mai a'e iwakalua kuma kahi kopena o ka- Luna Ho'omalu Aloha 'ia Ha-iolelo No 'Oihana Mahi'ai! (Alexi--oh, hello Vasily, I just stood in line 20 hours to buy 22 copies of the Beloved Chairman's speech on agriculture!)

Kakili: Iwakalua kumalua wale? (Only 22?) Ua ku-ai mai o Ikolo i kanakolu kuma kahi a.....(Igor bought 32 and.....)

Aleki: A, no'ono'o au pono e ku ma ka laina hou a me ku-ai nui na kekahi mau kopena! (Oh, I think I should get back in line and buy several more copies!)

Kalaki: 'Ae, Alaki, pono nui ka mana'o! (Yes, Alexi, a very good idea!)

Aleki: E 'olu'olu, mai 'o-lelo 'oe e pili ana no ke-ia. (Please, don't say anything about this)

Kaleki: 'A'ole hoi'no. (No, of couse not)...

Piha ka wahi kukulu ka'a (full is the parking lot), like me na- la- o na- nalu nui (like the days with good waves). Ho'omana'o au i kou "Santa Monica"! ( I remember your "Santa Monica"!) Ho'omana'o hou au i ka- maua huaka' i i Mazatlan, Mekiko a me ka hokele "Pescador". (I also remember our trip to Mazatlan, Mexico, and the hotel Pescador. )

Manaolana au e hiki i 'ike 'oe i ke ki'i maluna o ke-ia 'ao'ao, a me hiki i 'ike 'oe i ke-ia 'ao'ao noho'i!

Ua 'au au ma ke kai mehana i nehinei (I swam in the warm ocean yesterday), ua 'olu'olu nui ia ia (It was very pleasant.)

Ua ho'omaka au i ao mai o ka 'o-lelo Hawai'i no ka mea ua makemake au e maopopo i na- makemake o'u ia mele Hawai'i.

I ke-ia manawa, ho'opa'a ha'awana au i ka puke ekolu o Na Kai Ewalu, ka puke a'o o ka papa 'o-lelo Hawai'i ma ke Kulanui Hawai'i ma Hilo. (Now I am studying book 3 of Na Kai Ewalu--the eight seas--, the text book of the Hawaiian language at the U of Hawai'i @ Hilo). Nanea nui ia i au (I am enjoying it very much).

Ua hiki e mana'o ho'opuka 'oe, ina- makemake 'oe. (You can comment if you want). Manaolana au e lohe mai 'oe. (I hope to hear from you...this is such an idiomatic expression I am sure I said it totally wrong, but you get the point). Me ka aloha pumehana ia 'oe, kou hoaloha o Lopaka. (With warm love and affection to you, your friend Lopaka)
