Lyrics

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

Oh na-na, phakama,  
Ziva uthando, ukukhanya.  
Usuku lutsha lukhona,  
Amaphupha akhe, uza kubhabha.

Oh na-na, vula indlebe,  
Iintliziyo ziyaqhumisa.  
Ngokukhanya kweSweefin,  
Uza kungena kwelanga elikhanyayo.

**[Verse 1]**

Umama wathi, "Yazi ixabiso lakho,  
Unamandla okutshintsha umhlaba."  
Ukusuka kwizimpande ezithobekileyo,  
Iintliziyo zakhe zenziwe ngegolide.

Izandla zakhe ziyaphilisa, ziyakha,  
Iphupha elikhulu liyazaliseka.  
Uyatyala, uyakhulisa,  
Ukhanyisa indlela kwabo baphantsi.

Ukusuka emaphandleni ukuya kwizibane zesixeko,  
Uguqula amaphupha abe ziindawo eziphakamileyo.  
Amandla ezizwe, ithemba esinalo,  
Ubume bemini yangoMso.

**[Pre-Chorus — Building Energy]**

Mvumeleni aphuphe, avuthulule,  
Yonke intaba angayinyuka.  
Mnike amaphiko, makakhwele,  
Jonga evula zonke iingcango.

Xa emile, nathi siyavuka,  
Akukho mda kwinto esinokuyenza.  
Isandla ngesandla, ecaleni,  
Ziva amandla ephila!

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

Oh-oh-oh, mvumele amile!  
Jonga umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele avuthulule!  
Ixesha lakhe liqala ngobu busuku.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, vula indlebe,  
Xa emile, sonke siyavuka!  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele akhokele,  
Nguyena kamva esilifunayo!

Vuka, vuka, mvumele amile,  
Njengentsasa esibhakabhakeni.  
NgeSweefin, amaphupha ayazaliseka,  
Xa abafazi benyuka, sonke siyaphumelela!

**[Verse 2]**

Wathi makalinde ixesha lakhe,  
Ngoku unemhlaba wokuwuphumelela.  
Kwiingcango ezivaliweyo ukuya ezulwini ezivulekileyo,  
Bona isibindi emehlweni akhe.

Ungumakhi, ungumkhokeli,  
Ngamandla othando ngaphakathi.  
Kushishino ngalunye, kurhwebo ngalunye,  
Lonke ithuba uliphumezile.

Unokukhokelela, anokudala,  
Ayenze imini yangoMso, atshintshe ikamva lakhe.  
Ukusuka kwiimarike ukuya kwihlabathi,  
Mvumeleni amaphupha akhe amakhulu avuleke.

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

Mvumeleni aphuphe, avuthulule,  
Yonke intaba angayinyuka.  
Mnike amaphiko, makakhwele,  
Jonga evula zonke iingcango.

Xa emile, nathi siyavuka,  
Akukho mda kwinto esinokuyenza.  
Isandla ngesandla, ecaleni,  
Ziva amandla ephila!

**[Chorus — Full Afro-House Energy]**

Oh-oh-oh, mvumele amile!  
Jonga umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele avuthulule!  
Ixesha lakhe liqala ngobu busuku.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, vula indlebe,  
Xa emile, sonke siyavuka!  
Oh-oh-oh, mvumele akhokele,  
Nguyena kamva esilifunayo!

Vuka, vuka, mvumele amile,  
Njengentsasa esibhakabhakeni.  
NgeSweefin, amaphupha ayazaliseka,  
Xa abafazi benyuka, sonke siyaphumelela!

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

Kumama onephupha,  
Kumntwana ongakaboni  
Yonke imimangaliso angaba yiyo,  
Zonke iingcango azakuzivula.

Kuba basetyhini abaphambili,  
Abaye bakholwa ukuba kukho okungakumbi,  
Ngeenyathelo ngalinye, ngamnye umnikelo,

[Verse]  
Uncedile iphupha liphinde liphaphame.  

Mvume ilizwi lakhe liziwe,  
Masingawaphoxi amaphupha akhe.  
Ukusuka eAfrika ukuya kuwo onke amazwe,  
Sisonke singenza okungakumbi.

Bhiyozela abafazi abaphumelelayo!

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

Oh-oh-oh, mvume avuke!  
Jonga umlilo emehlweni akhe.  
Oh-oh-oh, mvume akhanye!  
Ikamva lakhe liqala ngobu busuku.

Hey-ya, hey-ya, yiva umnxeba,

Ngokuthi Sweefin, amaphupha ayaphila,  
Xa abafazi bephumelela, sonke siyaphumelela!

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

Oh na-na, mvume akhanye,  
Jonga amaphupha akhe eqala ukukhula.  
Yonke imfazi, yonke intombazana,  
Inamandla okutshintsha umhlaba.

Oh na-na, sibambisene,  
Bhiyozela amandla kunye nenkululeko yakhe.  
Ngokuthi Sweefin, mvume ikamva likhanye,  
Ixesha lakhe lifikile, ixesha lokuvuka.

Avuke… avuke…  
Mvume amaphupha akhe akhanyise isibhakabhaka.  
Avuke… avuke…  
Xa evuka, siyavuka sonke.
