I AM THE I
OWAU NO KA "I"

"I" come forth from the void into light,
Pua mai au mai ka po iloko o ka malamalama,
 
"I" am the breath that nurtures life,
Owau no ka ha, ka mauli ola,
 
"I" am that emptiness, that hollowness beyond all consciousness,
Owau no ka poho, ke ka'ele mawaho a'e o no ike apau.
 
The "I", the Id, the All.
Ka I, Ke Kino Iho, na Mea Apau.
 
"I" draw my bow of rainbows across the waters,
Ka a'e au i ku'u pi'o o na anuenue mawaho a'e o na kai a pau,
 
The continuum of minds with matters.
Ka ho'omaumau o na mana'o ame na mea a pau.
 
"I" am the incoming and outgoing of breath,
Owau no ka "Ho", a me ka "Ha"
 
The invisible, untouchable breeze,
He huna ka makani nahenahe,
 
The undefinable atom of creation.
Ka "Hua" huna o Kumulipo.
 
"I" am the "I".
Owau no ka "I".
