[Hawaiian] Upbeyond

Lyrics

# UPBEYOND
*Sweefin Music — Hawaiian Version*

**[Intro — Distant Choir, African Drums, Rising Synth]**

Eh-oh, eh-oh!  
E lohe i nā kapuaʻi hele!

Mai ke alanui liʻiliʻi a i nā miliona,  
E lohe i ka paʻi o ka puka.

Oh-ya, oh-ya!  
E lohe i ka poʻe e hīmeni nei?

I luna, i luna, ma ʻō aku!  
E mālama i ka maikaʻi e holo mau!

**[Verse 1 — Percussive Afrobeat Groove]**

I ka pō nei, ua ho'ā i ke ala,  
I ke kakahiaka, he nui nā wāwae.  
Ka poʻe i ʻole i lohe ʻia  
Ke loaʻa nā hua'ōlelo e alakaʻi.

Kahi i nā pā, ke hana ana i nā puka,  
Kahi i nā kānalua, ke nīnau hou.  
Me Sweefin e kōkua i ka pilina,  
Hiki ke hana hou, kūkā, a holomua.

ʻAʻohe moe'uhane e ʻuʻuku e hoʻomaka i ka loli,  
ʻAʻohe ola e mamao e hoʻoponopono hou.  
ʻAʻole pono e kali no nā lani kūpono,  
Hiki ke kūkulu i ka puka ʻana o ka lā.

**[Pre-Chorus — Handclaps and Rising Harmonies]**

E lohe ana? (Lohe ana!)  
E ʻike ana? (ʻIke ana!)

He mea maikaʻi e neʻe nei,  
He wahi no kāua ʻelua.

E ʻauana, e kōkua,  
E kū i ka poʻe moe'uhane.  
Ke hīmeni ka honua holoʻokoʻa,  
ʻO nā leo liʻiliʻi e ikaika!

**[Chorus — Explosive Global Dance Hook]**

I luna, i luna, ma ʻō aku!  
E mālama i ka maikaʻi e holo mau!

E neʻe i kou kino, e hīmeni i kēia mele,  
E hele pū nā kānaka a pau!

I luna, i luna, ma ʻō aku!  
E hina nā pā kahiko!

Hey-oh, hey-oh, e hele ana,  
E nānā i nā hiki he miliona e ulu ana!

Upbeyond! Upbeyond!  
E lawe i ka paʻi e holo mau!

Kahi lima hou, kahi manawa hou,  
E hāʻawi i ka honua holoʻokoʻa i ka hula!

**[Post-Chorus — Festival Crowd Chant]**

Oh-ya-ya! Oh-ya-ya!  
E ʻōlelo a pau ka poʻe
