What's the name of that hawaiian song they use in all movies?

It's that one that all movies and shows use when they want to refer to Hawaii, the one they use when girls are slowly dancing (hula). It's got "aloha" in it. I know it's really vague but I can't sing the tune.

What's the name of that hawaiian song they use in all movies?
Aloha Oe


Lyrics %26amp; Music: Queen Liliuokalani





Haaheo e ka ua i na pali Proudly sweeps the rain cloud by the cliffs


Ke nihi ae la i kanahele As onward it glides thru the trees


E uhai ana paha i ka liko It seems to be following the liko


Pua a hihi lehua o u The a hihi lehua of the vale





Aloha oe, aloha oe, Aloha oe, farewell to thee,


E ke onaona noho i ka lipo Thou charming one who dwells among the bowers


One fond embrace, a hoi ae au One fond embrace, before I now depart


Until we meet again, until we meet again. Until we meet again, until we meet again





O ka halia aloha kai hihi mai Thus sweet memories come back to me


Ke hone ae nei i kuu manawa. Bringing fresh remembrance of the past


O oe no ka'u ipo aloha Dearest one, yes, thou art mine own


A loko e hana nei. From the true love shall ne'er depart





Maopopo kuu iki i ka nani, I have seen and watched the loveliness


Na pua rose o Maunawili, Thou sweet rose of Maunawili


Ilaila hiaai ai na manu, And 'tis there the birds oft love to dwell


Mikiala i ka nani o ka liko. And sip the honey from thy lips

Maopopo ku`u `ike i ka nani


N芒 pua rose o Maunawili


I laila hia`ia n芒 manu


Miki`ala i ka nani o ka lipo





English translation





Proudly swept the rain by the cliffs


As it glided through the trees


Still following ever the bud


The 驶ahihi lehua of the vale





Chorus:


Farewell to thee, farewell to thee


The charming one who dwells in the shaded bowers


One fond embrace,


'Ere I depart


Until we meet again





Sweet memories come back to me


Bringing fresh remembrances


Of the past


Dearest one, yes, you are mine own


From you, true love shall never depart





I have seen and watched your loveliness


The sweet rose of Maunawili


And 'tis there the birds of love dwell


And sip the honey from your lips
