A vote against taking a stronger stance was met with shouts of “aole!” or “no!” from a standing-room-only crowd.

You would say perhaps, "Aole au i ike."

In Judge Andrews's dictionary are found the following pertinent Hawaiian verses apropos of the word nihi: E hoopono ka hele i ka uka o Puna; E nihi ka hele, mai hoolawehala, Mai noho a ako i ka pua, o hewa, O inaina ke Akua, paa ke alanui, Aole ou ala e hiki aku ai.

The first mele here offered as an accompaniment to this hula can boast of no great antiquity; it belongs to the middle of the nineteenth century, and was the product of some gallant at a time when princes and princesses abounded in Hawaii: Mele Aole i manao ia.

Aole loa ke kula I ka pai-lani a Kane.
