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 to shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way to say
Merry Christmas to you
[The Andrew Sisters]
