Hulhulé (ހުޅުލެ), located at 4°11′N 73°32′E / 4.183°N 73.533°E / 4.183; 73.533, is an island in the North Malé Atoll of the Maldives.
It is one of the islands closest to the capital island Malé. Hulhulé is considered a ward of Malé.
The Malé International Airport is located on this island along with some official premises, e.g. Maldivian Bureau of Meteorology. The airport is served internationally by a variety of holiday charter flights (mostly from Europe) and several scheduled carriers including Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways, British Airways, Turkish Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines and Sri Lankan Airlines. In addition to serving as an international and domestic airport, Hulhule is also home to the seaplane terminal operated by both Maldivian Air Taxi and Trans Maldivian Airways. The island also serves as a hub for travellers wishing to connect to a domestic flight to the further outlying atolls, such as Laamu.
Before the airport was built it used to be the home of the aboriginal Giraavaru people. In 1968, they were forced to abandon their ancestral home on Giraavaru island under an Islamic regulation that did not recognise communities with fewer than 40 adult males who could form a quorum at the Friday prayers. The Giraavaru people were ferried across the atoll lagoon to Hulhule Island. When the airport there was extended, they were shifted across to Malé and housed in a few blocks in newly reclaimed areas in the Maafannu district.

You couldn't be
You couldn't be me even if you wanted to
Every thing I've been through, You wouldn't know
Live your life
Soaking up, all my sunshine
And smile your whole life
I wouldn't know
Eighteen wheels are rollin'
Eighteen wheels are crushin' me down
Runnin' me down
Cars are crashin'
Cars are crashin' all around me
Runnin' me down
All my days are numbered
All my days are grey
All my skies are covered
All my ends are frayed
You couldn't be
You couldn't be me even if you wanted to
Every thing I've been through, You wouldn't know
Live your life
Soaking up, all my sunshine
And smile your whole life
I wouldn't know
Lightning's crashin'
Thunder's rollin' all around me
Bringin' me down
Stars are fallin'
Fire's lightin' all around me
Burnin' me down
All my days are numbered
All my days are grey
All my skies are covered
All my ends are frayed
You couldn't be
You couldn't be me even if you wanted to
Every thing I've been through, You wouldn't know
Live your life
Soaking up, all my sunshine
And smile your whole life
I wouldn't know
(You wouldn't know)
(You wouldn't know)
(You wouldn't know)
(You wouldn't know)
Feels like I'm fallin' down
Inside a fever risin'
Bury my life deep in the ground
Left my existence lying
So let's go
You couldn't be
You couldn't be me even if you wanted to
Every thing I've been through, You wouldn't know
Live your life
Soaking up, all my sunshine
And smile your whole life
You couldn't be
You couldn't be me even if you wanted to
