Ho’ao Pule (Hawaiian Marriage Prayer)

E ka Haku, e kokua mai ia maua e ho’omana’o i ka 
manawa a maua i launa mua ai,
Lord, help us to remember the time we first met,

a me ke aloha nui i ulu ai ma waena o maua.
and the strong love that grew between us.

E kokua mai ia maua e ho’ohana i kela aloha
i na mea ma’amau i ‘ole e ka’awale
Help us to apply that love in practical things so nothing divides us.

Ke nonoi ha’aha’a nei maua i na hua’olelo ‘olu’olu 
a piha me ke aloha,
We humbly ask for kind words filled with love,

a no na pu’uwai makaukau mau e noi i ka huikala, 
a e  huikala aku.
and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness, as well as to forgive.

E ka Haku, ke waiho nei maua i ko maua male’ana i loko
o koa lima. ‘Amene.
Lord, we leave our marriage in your hands.  Amen.
