Lyrics

**[Intro — Warm Female Vocals, Gentle Afrobeat Rhythm]**

Oh na-na, vuka ujabule,  
Zizwa uthando, ukukhanya okungcwele.  
Ilanga elitsha liyakhala,  
Amabhayisikobho akhe, ulungele ukubhabha.

Oh na-na, zwa umsindo,  
Izinhliziyo ezinkulungwane zishaya manje.  
Ngokukhanya kweSweefin endleleni,  
Uthatha izinyathelo ziya kosuku olukhanyayo.

**[Verse 1]**

Umama wangitshela, "Yazi inani lakho,  
Unamandla okushintsha umhlaba lo."  
Kusuka ezimpandeni ezithobekile kuya emaphusheni angenamkhawulo,  
Inhliziyo yakhe yegolide.

Ngamandla okuphulukisa nokwakha,  
Amabhayisikobho ayinkulungwane ayafezeka.  
Uhlanyela imbewu, uyakhulisa,  
Futhi ukhanyisa indlela kwabaphansi.

Kusuka emakhaya kuya ekukhanyeni kwedolobha,  
Uphendulela amaphupho abe phezulu.  
Amandla ezizwe, ithemba esilibonayo,  
Ubumba ikusasa elizayo.

**[Pre-Chorus — Building Energy]**

Mvumeleni aphuphe, vumeleni akhanye,  
Yonke intaba angayikhuphuka.  
Mnike amaphiko, vumeleni abhabhe,  
Bukani evula wonke umnyango.

Uma ephakama, siyaphakama nathi,  
Ayikho imingcele esingayenza.  
Isandla ngesandla, eceleni,  
Zwa amandla aphila!

**[Chorus — Explosive, Joyful Dance Hook]**

Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni aphakame!  
Bona umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni akhanye!  
Ikusasa lakhe liqala namhlanje ebusuku.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, zwa ukubiza kwakhe,  
Uma ephakama, siyaphakama sonke!  
Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni ahole,  
Uyikusasa esikudinga!

Phakama, phakama, vumeleni aphakame,  
Njengekusasa elizulwini.  
Ngokukhanya kweSweefin, amaphupho angaphila,  
Uma abesifazane bephumelela, siyaphumelela sonke!

**[Verse 2]**

Watshelwa ukuthi alinde isikhathi sakhe,  
Manje unomhlaba wokuwina.  
Kusuka eminyango evaliwe kuya ezulwini elivulekile,  
Bona isibindi emehlweni akhe.

Ungumakhi, ungumholi,  
Ngamandla othando ngaphakathi.  
Wonke amabhizinisi, wonke umkhakha,  
Wonke amathuba awadalile.

Angahola, angadala,  
Bumba ikusasa, shintsha isiphetho sakhe.  
Kusuka emakethe kuya emhlabeni,  
Vumela amaphupho akhe amakhulu avuleke.

**[Pre-Chorus — Layered Female Harmonies]**

Mvumeleni aphuphe, vumeleni akhanye,  
Yonke intaba angayikhuphuka.  
Mnike amaphiko, vumeleni abhabhe,  
Bukani evula wonke umnyango.

Uma ephakama, siyaphakama nathi,  
Ayikho imingcele esingayenza.  
Isandla ngesandla, eceleni,  
Zwa amandla aphila!

**[Chorus — Full Afro-House Energy]**

Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni aphakame!  
Bona umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni akhanye!  
Ikusasa lakhe liqala namhlanje ebusuku.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, zwa ukubiza kwakhe,  
Uma ephakama, siyaphakama sonke!  
Oh-oh-oh, vumeleni ahole,  
Uyikusasa esikudinga!

Phakama, phakama, vumeleni aphakame,  
Njengekusasa elizulwini.  
Ngokukhanya kweSweefin, amaphupho angaphila,  
Uma abesifazane bephumelela, siyaphumelela sonke!

**[Bridge — Emotional, Then Rising Celebration]**

Kumama onephupho,  
Kwentombazane engakabonakali  
Yonke imihlaba angaba yiyo,  
Yonke iminyango azovula ngokukhululeka.

Kwabesifazane abaphambili,  
Abaqhubeka bekholelwa kukhona okwengeziwe,  
Wonke umnyathelo, yonke imihlatshelo,

**[Verse]**

Siza iphupho liphaphame.

Izwi lakhe malizwakale namhlanje,  
Akungabikho iphupho eliphikwayo.  
Kusuka eAfrika kuze kufinyelele ogwini,  
Simunye singenza okuningi.

**[Dance Break — Call and Response]**

Umholi: Ngubani ozovuka?  
Ikwaya: Yena uzovuka!

Umholi: Ngubani ozokhanya?

Vumela umculo ugcwalise isibhakabhaka!  
Hey-ya, hey-ya, uzizwe uphila,  
Gubha abesifazane abaphumelela!

**[Final Chorus — Big Choir, Drums, Celebration]**

Oh-oh-oh, mvumele avuke!  
Bona umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele akhanye!  
Ikusasa lakhe liqala namhlanje.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, zwa ukubiza kwakhe,  
Lapho evuka, siyavuka sonke!  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele ahole,  
Uyikusasa esilidingayo!

Vuka, vuka, mvumele avuke,  
Njengokusa esibhakabhakeni.

Uma abesifazane bephumelela, siyaphumelela sonke!

**[Outro — Warm, Joyful, Unforgettable]**

Oh na-na, mvumele akhanye,  
Buka amaphupho akhe eqala ukukhula.  
Wonke umfazi, wonke intombazane,  
Banamandla okushintsha umhlaba.

Oh na-na, sibambene,  
Gubha amandla akhe nokuzigqaja.  
NgeSweefin, mvumele ikusasa likhanye,  
Isikhathi sakhe sesifikile, isikhathi sakhe sokuvuka.

Avuke… avuke…  
Mvumele amaphupho akhe akhanyise isibhakabhaka.  
Avuke… avuke…  
Lapho evuka, siyavuka sonke.
