[Sesotho] Upbeyond

Lyrics

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

Eh-oh, eh-oh!  
Utloa mehato e atamelang!

Ho tloha seterateng se senyenyane ho isa ho tse milione,  
Utloa molodi o kokota monyako.

Oh-ya, oh-ya!  
U utloa batho ba bina?

Holimo, holimo, ho feta!  
Boloka botle bo tsoela pele!

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

Maobane lebone le bonesitse seterata,  
Hoseng hona ho na le maoto a sekete.  
Ba neng ba sa bue letho  
Ba fumana mantsoe a tataisang tsela.

Moo ho neng ho e-na le marako, re etsa menyako,  
Moo ho neng ho e-na le lipelaelo, re botsa haholoanyane.  
Ka Sweefin re hokahanya batho,  
Ho feta ho ka bopa, ho arolelana, le ho hatela pele.

Ha ho toro e nyane haholo ho qala phetoho,  
Ha ho bophelo bo hole haholo ho bo hlophisa bocha.  
Ha re hloke ho ema bakeng sa maholimo a phethahetseng,  
Re ka haha ha letsatsi le ntse le chaba.

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

Na ua e utloa? (E utloa!)  
Na ua e utloa? (E utloa!)

Ho na le ntho e ntle e tsamaeang,  
Ho na le sebaka sa rona ka bobeli.

Nka monyetla, fana ka letsoho,  
E re moemeli e mong a eme.  
Ha lefatše lohle le bina hammoho,  
Le mantsoe a manyane a utloahala a le matla!

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

Holimo, holimo, ho feta!  
Boloka botle bo tsoela pele!

Sisinyang 'mele, binang pina ena,  
Motho e mong le e mong a tle!

Holimo, holimo, ho feta!  
Tlohelang marako a khale a theohe!

Hey-oh, hey-oh, re eang,  
Shebang menyetla e milione e hola!

Upbeyond! Upbeyond!  
Tlohelang molodi o tsamaee!

Letsoho le leng, monyetla o mong,  
Fana ka motjeko lefatšeng lohle!

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

Oh-ya-ya! Oh-ya-ya!  
Motho e mong le e mong, re bue!
