Hola, Lola!

Lola Lopez Lived in Lima
Lovely Lima, in Peru.
Lola had a cousin, Harry
Way out west, in Honolulu.
One day Lola got a letter
From her cousin way out west.
"If you'd come to my birthday party,
Lola, that would be the best!"
So on an airplane, Lola flew
All the way from Lima, Peru
Far across the ocean blue
flew Lola from Lima to Honolulu.
And Harry's Family Said:
"Hola, Lola, Lola, hello! Hola, Lola, hello!
Hola, Lola, Lola, hello! Hola, Lola, hello!"
There, at Harry's birthday party
as the children laughed, and played
cake was served by Harry's mom,
but under the palm tree Lola stayed.
Harry said to Lola:
"Lola, why not come, and say hello?"
"Nadie aqui habla mi dioma"
They're all talking words I don't know!
And Harry said:
"Well, don't be shy!
Come to the table for pineapple pie!
everyone will welcome you,
sweet Lola, from Lima to Honolulu!"
Just say:
"Hola, Lola, Lola, hello! Hola, Lola, hello!
Hola, Lola, Lola hello! Hola, Lola hello!"
Lola sat down at the table
set up in the island sand
softly, Lola whispered:
"Hola."
Hoping the kids would understand
Lola closed her eyes, and swallowed
fearing that the worst would come
but all the kids took ukuleles
and everyone began to strum
and they all sang:
"Hola, Lola, Lola, hello! Hola, Lola, hello!
Hola, Lola, Lola hello! Hola, Lola hello!"
"Aloha, Lola, Shalom, Lola, Salaam, lola
Cheerio! Ciao, Lola, Ni Hau, Lola!
Jumbo Anyea, Haseyo!"
So, if you meet someone different
and they seem a little shy
you'll make friends in any language!
Think of Lola, and just say Hi!
Hola, Lola!
Hola, Lola!
