Hem hollolo iyo Hakuna Matata ! Hem may'babo

When I was a cool young one (When he was a cool young one)
I worked in the colony, paying my dues
Accepting without question the prevailing views
That a young man's life was one long grind
Diggin' holes, standin' guard 'till it crossed my mind
I was wrong, all along
All that I needed was to have heeded

Hakuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata ! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy, Hakuna Matata !

When I was a shallow youth (When he was a shallow youth)
Cool calm reflection, I was never that good
I was a pawn in the game, I saw no trees for the wood
My future stretched behind me, I was over the hill
I put my best foot forward but the other stood still
Take my word, I have heard
All that I needed was to have heeded

Hakuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata ! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy, Hakuna Matata !

Hem hollolo iyo Hakuna Matata ! Hem may'babo

Hakuna Matata ! I hope we have conveyed
You don't have to bust a gut in the sun
It's much cooler in the shade
Some say it's just a waste of time but they don't realize
That view is nothing but a crime we are creatures worldly wise

Hakuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata ! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata ! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata ! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy, Hakuna Matata !
