Hakuna Matata!
It's a wonderful phrase that means no worries!

What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata is a great thing to say!

Ain't no passing craze
It's not just a fad or trend, it's a way of life!

It means no worries
Hakuna Matata is all about being carefree!

For the rest of your days
It's a way of living that you can practice every day!

It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata is how we approach life's challenges without worry!

Why, when he was a young warthog
Let me tell you a story about Pumbaa when he was young!

When I was a young wart-hoooog!
Pumbaa was once a young wart-hog just like me!

Very nice!
That's a compliment!

Thanks!
Thank you for the compliment!

He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
Pumbaa was self-conscious about how he smelled to others.

He could clear the Savannah after every meal
Let's just say Pumbaa was gassy.

I'm a sensitive soul, though I seem thick-skinned
Pumbaa may seem tough, but he has feelings too.

And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
It bothered Pumbaa that his friends never tried to escape his smell.

And oh, the shame
It was embarrassing for Pumbaa to have such a bad odor.

(He was ashamed!)
Pumbaa was really embarrassed.

Thought of changin' my name
Pumbaa was so embarrassed that he considered changing his name.

(Oh, what's in a name?)
But in reality, a name doesn't change who you are.

And I got downhearted
Pumbaa felt pretty sad.

(How did you feel?)
Timon is asking how Pumbaa felt about it all.

Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Timon stops Pumbaa from saying something inappropriate.

Oh... sorry
Pumbaa apologizes.

Yeah, sing it, kid!
Timon encourages Simba to keep singing.

Hakuna Matata
Just saying the phrase brings happiness.

Hakuna Matata
It's so nice, we have to say it twice!

Hakuna Matata
Let's keep saying it!

Hakuna
Just the first part of the phrase, still brings happiness!
