Mele kelikimaka in Hawaiian, phonetically /mele kelitimaka/.

For the record, many Hawaiian speakers do not even have [t] before front vowels. Also you're using /phoneme brackets/ when you should be using [phonetic brackets].

m̓ałʔaaʔamaʔaała in Nuu-Cha-Nulth. According to Advanced Language Construction, 'it's always cold on the rocks'. The same vowel repeating over and over, two times lengthened.

It's not that unusual to find words with only /a/ considering it is the most common vowel in the world.

Swahili lililililia means "it cried for it", as long as both "it"s are class 5.
