Star of Gladness

Composer: Kalama(?)
Originally recorded by: The Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau
Most recently recorded by: Pure Heart  

G
Raindrops they hamper my vision
				    D
Falling down and cutting incisions, in my mind
	 G
While we sail away our time


Blow makani, shout jubilation

Carry us down to our destination
D	      G
O wikiwiki, a keala Tahiti


Millions of stars up in the sky
Looking up they all make us high, but

  D		  G
Hokule'a, Star of Gladness (you're the happy star)
    D		      G
Oh, Hokule'a, Star of Gladness


Stand beside me and be my friend
make me smile and laugh again, yes

D			     G
Hokule'a, you're the Star of Gladness (you're the happy star)
    D		      G       G7
Oh, Hokule'a, Star of Gladness


Bridge:
	C		   G				G7
	With our bow, your hull slides through the sea
	C			G
	Guide Hokule'a, Lord we ask you please
	   D			 G
	In this we pray, Lord to show us the way
	    D		      G
	Ah, Hokule'a, Star of Gladness (you're the happy star)
	    D		      G
	Oh, Hokule'a, Star of Gladness
