# LIFTARA *Keia manawa, ala hou kākou a pau.* **[INTRO — Pū kani Hawaiʻi, Kiʻekiʻe Mele Leʻa]** Eia! Eia! E hāpai i nā lima! E lawe mai i hoa! Kahi, ʻelua, ʻekolu— LIFTARA! *(Hāʻule ʻana o ke kani bass)* **[CHORUS — Hōʻailona Hula ʻĀwili]** Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Kiʻekiʻe, kiʻekiʻe, eia mākou! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! E piʻi kākou i nā hōkū! Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Neʻe i nā wāwae, hāpai i ka puʻuwai! Kahi nou! Kahi noʻu! Hāpai kekahi i kekahi— Kahi, ʻelua, ʻekolu! **[VERSE 1 — Kani ʻUkulele, Mele ʻOlapa]** Ma ke kihi o ke alanui paʻapū, Wehe ka wahine i kona hale kūʻai. Hoʻopili i nā moeʻuhane me nā hīnaʻi, Mākaukau no ka hea ʻana o ke kakahiaka. Ma kēlā ʻaoʻao, nānā ke kāne ʻōpio, Nīnau ana i kona ala e hele aku ai. Wahi a ia, "E hele mai e aʻo pū me aʻu, Aia ka hua e kaʻana like." Hoʻomaka i ka moʻolelo me ka lokomaikaʻi, Hoʻopuka i ka puka me ka manawa hou. Ka huakaʻi hoʻokahi i hoʻokahi wale nō Ua loaʻa pū kekahi hoa hou. Hoʻohui i nā ala hou e pili ai, E hana, e kaʻana, e ulu. Ke kōkua kākou kekahi i kekahi, He nui nā mea e hiki iā kākou ke hana. **[PRE-CHORUS — Hoʻokani Mele Leʻa]** Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka honua ma lalo? Hiki iā ʻoe ke lohe i ka pahu e hoʻomaka? E lālau i ka lima o ka mea kokoke, E hui pū ka honua ākea! ʻAʻole pono ke piʻi hoʻokahi, ʻAʻole pono ke holo i mua. Ke hana kākou i kahi no nā mea ʻē aʻe, Aia he ala mālamalama e hele aku ai! **[CHORUS — Hoʻokani Hula ʻĀwili]** Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Kiʻekiʻe, kiʻekiʻe, eia mākou! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! E piʻi kākou i nā hōkū! Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Neʻe i nā wāwae, hāpai i ka puʻuwai! Kahi nou! Kahi noʻu! Hāpai kekahi i kekahi— Kahi, ʻelua, ʻekolu! **[POST-CHORUS — Mele Hula Leʻa]** Hāpai! Hāpai! Neʻe! Neʻe! E hāpai i nā lima i luna! Hema! ʻĀkau! Huli! E ʻike i ka haʻalulu o ka honua! Hāpai-a! Hāpai-a! LIFTARA! **[VERSE 2 — Alakaʻi Wahine, Kani Bass Amapiano]** Aia ke mahiʻai me ka ʻohi ʻana, Aia ka mea hana me ka manaʻo. Aia ka makua kāne e aʻo ana i ka hoʻomanawanui, Aia ke keiki e hoʻomaopopo ana. Huli ka mea hoʻolālā ʻōpio i mea kūʻai aku, Loaʻa i ka ʻoihana liʻiliʻi kona wāwae. Hana kekahi i ka pilina hou I kahi e ʻike ʻole ai lākou. Mai ke kauhale a i ke kūlanakauhale, Mai nā mauna a i ke kai, Hoʻokomo nā kānaka a pau i ka mākaukau, Hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia nā ola a pau. Hiki iā kākou ke kūkulu i ka pōʻai ākea, Hiki iā kākou ke wehe i ke ala. Ke hoʻokomo kākou i nā mea hou, Hoʻokumu i ka ʻokoʻa i kēlā me kēia lā. **[PRE-CHORUS — Hoʻokani Kaniʻāina]** Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka honua ma lalo? Hiki iā ʻoe ke lohe i ka pahu e hoʻomaka? E lālau i ka lima o ka mea kokoke, E hui pū ka honua ākea! ʻAʻole pono ke piʻi hoʻokahi, ʻAʻole pono ke holo i mua. Ke hana kākou i kahi no nā mea ʻē aʻe, Aia he ala mālamalama e hele aku ai! **[CHORUS — Hoʻokani Hula ʻĀwili]** Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Kiʻekiʻe, kiʻekiʻe, eia mākou! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! E piʻi kākou i nā hōkū! Hāpai-a, hāpai-a, LIFTARA! Neʻe i nā wāwae, hāpai i ka puʻuwai! Kahi nou! Kahi noʻu! Hāpai kekahi i kekahi— Kahi, ʻelua, ʻekolu! **[BRIDGE — Piano, Children's Choir, Gentle Handclaps]** Inā loaʻa ka puka ākea, E paʻa mālie no ka hou. Inā loaʻa ke ala e lanakila, E kaʻana i nā mea i kōkua iā 'oe. ʻAʻohe alanui hoʻokahi i ka holomua, ʻAʻohe ʻōlelo paʻa me ka mālama ʻole. Akā he honua me ke ākea, ʻO ia ka honua e kaʻana like ai. *(Music fades to handclaps)* **[DANCE BREAK — Call-and-Response]** Lead: ʻO wai e hāpai i kekahi? Crowd: Mākou! Mākou! Lead: ʻO wai e hana i ka ʻokoʻa? Crowd: Mākou! Mākou! Lead: ʻO wai nāna e noho i ʻaneʻi? Crowd: Nā kānaka a pau! Lead: E hōʻike mai i kou neʻe! *(Percussion builds)* Hāpai! Hāpai! Kahi! Kahi! Lima i luna! Huli hoʻi! Kahi no ʻoe! Kahi noʻu! Hāpai pū kekahi— Kahi, lua, kolu! *(Full bass drop)* LIFTARA! **[FINAL CHORUS — Full Festival Choir, Brass, Percussion]** Hāpai a hāpai, LIFTARA! Kiʻekiʻe aʻe, eia mākou! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Nā kānaka a pau, eia i ka lani! Hāpai a hāpai, LIFTARA! Neʻe i nā wāwae, hāpai ka naʻau! Kahi no ʻoe! Kahi noʻu! Hāpai pū kekahi— Kahi, lua, kolu! **[OUTRO — Warm Guitar, Fading Choir]** Ho'okahi puka ākea, Ho'okahi lima kōkua. Ho'okahi ʻanuʻu E hiki ke hoʻololi i ka manaʻo. Sweefin e lawe mai i nā ala e pili ai, E hana, e kaʻana like, a e ulu. Hāpai a hāpai, LIFTARA! Ke hāpai kākou i kekahi i kekahi, E ala kākou a pau! *(Final triumphant drum hit)*
