Mele (Hawaiian language)

Mele are chants, songs, or poems. The term comes from the Hawaiian language. It is frequently used in song titles such as " Mele Kalikimaka", or " He Mele Lahui Hawaii", composed in 1866 by Liliuokalani as a national anthem. Hawaiian songbooks often carry the word in the book's title.

In practical usage, the word can be combined with other words, such as Mele Hula, a metered chant. The word can either be a noun (He mele keia), or used as a verb to mean "to chant" or "to sing" (E mele mai...).
