ers. This mark OF esteem by the Hood |
River ladies completely won their |
hearts. The following are the words
OF the song:
In eighteen hundred. ninety three,
Our friends and neighbors of Hawaii
Sent message across the sea
From Honolulu upon Osthu,
Begging our Uncle Sam to be
A foster uncle to Hawaii.
His faithful subjects they would be
And thus to him they sang:
II you laka me lak-l- l-laka-you
Aud we lak.a both the same,
| laka-say this very day
/ LAX change my name,
Cause .ove-a-you and love-a-you true
And If you loye-a-me, can
One live as two, two live as one
| All as an American.
And this simple pretty way
They begged our uncle every day,
| Awaiting what he had to say,
Until he seized them, which greatly
| pleased them.
And now orr sisters you shall be
And live beneath our flag 80 free,
The starry flag Of Liberty,
We join you in this song.-Cho.
And now let this our welcome be,
| will love you as you love me.
Under the flag of liberty
We are united, our love is plighted.
Altho' your home is far away,
Our home shall be your home today,
! While to you we delight to say
In song, this soft refrain.-Cho.
