הנה הנה [Hine Hine] [English translation]

Here it is, here, here

A melody that begins low

A melody that begins in e flat

But wants to, wants to grow

To a flat, f minor

Looking for its way

And here it is ascending and ascending

I didn’t know it would run away

I didn’t know it would fly so far

I didn’t know it would forget me

Would be so insolent and talk back: to say:

Here it is, here, here,

Another year that begins slowly,

Another year that begins to grow today

Now it crawls and tomorrow suddenly

It will say goodbye like a dream

It will hurry along its way

And here it is ascending and ascending

I didn't know it would run away...

A love that begins deeply

A love that promises to be close

That promises to be so so good

Beautiful until it ends

Still small but can grow

And here is ascending and ascending

I didn't know it would run away...

That was my melody

A melody that loved me a year

But suddenly changed

Took off and is no longer

And it is no longer, gone…
