Lyrics

"Mele Kalikimaka" Is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is Hawaii's way
To say: "Merry Christmas to you" Take it girls
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is Hawaii's way
To say: "Merry Christmas to you"
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is Hawaii's way
To say: "Merry Christmas to you"
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
"Mele Kalikimaka" Is Hawaii's way
To say: "Merry Christmas"
Merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry Christmas to you
