This Hawaiian folk song, perhaps the culture's most famous, was written by Lili'uokalani in 1878 when she was Princess. It was originally written about the parting of two lovers, but as she ascended the throne to become Queen the song was heightened to become the national anthem of the Hawaiian kingdom. The simplistic melody and the supportive piano accompaniment allows the song to be accessible and relatively easy to create a heartfelt performance.
