Aloha mai e nā malihini Jiulong! Ke hoʻopuni nei ka wā hoʻomaha iā mākou i kāna apo kupua, ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke hauʻoli nui e kaʻana like i ka hauʻoli a me ka pumehana o ka Kalikimaka me ʻoe. Ma Jiulong, ʻaʻole kēia manawa o ka makahiki e pili ana i nā mea hoʻonaninani a me nā makana wale nō, akā e pili ana i ka mahalo ʻana i nā pilina maikaʻi a mākou i hana ai me kēlā me kēia o ʻoukou.
ʻO nā kukui ʻālohilohi a me nā mele leʻaleʻa e hoʻopiha ana i ka lewa he kumu kūpono no mākou e noʻonoʻo ai i nā ʻike like ʻole a me nā hoʻomanaʻo i hoʻohanohano maoli i kā mākou huakaʻi me ʻoe. Me ka mahalo i loko o ko mākou naʻau, makemake mākou e lawe i kēia manawa kūpono e hoʻonui i ka puʻuwai "Mahalo" no ka lilo ʻana i ʻāpana o ka ʻohana Jiulong.
ʻO kou hele ʻana a me kou kākoʻo ka mea hoʻoikaika ma hope o kā mākou hoʻoikaika ʻana e hana hou, hoʻokiʻekiʻe, a lawelawe maikaʻi iā ʻoe. ʻO kā mākou laulā o nā huahana mālama ukana,nakii ilalo, a i ʻole nā lako kaʻa, ʻo kēlā me kēia hāʻawi ʻana he hōʻike ia i kā mākou kūpaʻa e hoʻokō i kāu mau pono me ka maikaʻi.
Ke hoʻokokoke nei mākou i ka wā hoʻomaha, ʻaʻole kā mākou hui e ʻapo wale i ka ʻuhane ʻoliʻoli, akā ke hoʻomākaukau nei hoʻi e hoʻomaka i kahi makahiki hou i piha i nā manawa hoihoi a me nā hana hou.

I kēia Kalikimaka, ʻike mākou iā mākou iho me ka makemake nui i ka hauʻoli o ka hāʻawi ʻana a me ka hāʻawi ʻana. Makemake mākou e hōʻike i ko mākou mahalo nui no ka hilinaʻi a me ka hilinaʻi āu i kau mai ai iā mākou. ʻO kāu kākoʻo paʻa ʻole ka pōhaku kihi o kā mākou holomua, a ua hauʻoli mākou i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka manawa e lilo i ʻāpana o kāu huakaʻi.
Na kēia Kalikimaka e hoʻopiha i ko ʻoukou mau home me ka ʻakaʻaka, ko ʻoukou naʻau me ka maluhia, a me ko ʻoukou mau ʻuhane me ka manaʻolana. Mai mākou a pau ma Jiulong, ke hāʻawi aku nei mākou i kā mākou mau manaʻo pumehana no ka Mele Kalikimaka a me ka Makahiki Hou nui. Ke kakali nei mākou i ka hoʻomau ʻana i kēia huakaʻi kupaianaha me ʻoe a me ka hoʻokumu ʻana i nā hoʻomanaʻo i mahalo nui ʻia.
Mahalo iā ʻoe no kou komo ʻana i ka ʻohana Jiulong. Eia ke kau piha i ke aloha, ka ʻakaʻaka, a me nā manawa aloha. Mele kalikimaka!
ʻOiaʻiʻo! Eia kahi hoʻolaha nūhou Kalikimaka i hoʻohālikelike ʻia no nā malihini o Jiulong:

Na kēia Kalikimaka e hoʻopiha i ko ʻoukou mau home me ka ʻakaʻaka, ko ʻoukou naʻau me ka maluhia, a me ko ʻoukou mau ʻuhane me ka manaʻolana. Mai mākou a pau ma Jiulong, ke hāʻawi aku nei mākou i kā mākou mau manaʻo pumehana no ka Mele Kalikimaka a me ka Makahiki Hou nui. Ke kakali nei mākou i ka hoʻomau ʻana i kēia huakaʻi kupaianaha me ʻoe a me ka hoʻokumu ʻana i nā hoʻomanaʻo i mahalo nui ʻia.
Mahalo iā ʻoe no kou komo ʻana i ka ʻohana Jiulong. Eia ke kau piha i ke aloha, ka ʻakaʻaka, a me nā manawa aloha. Mele kalikimaka!
