[Hawaiian] When We're Gone

Lyrics

[Intro – Soft piano + distant choir]
Hmmmm…
Ohhh…
Eia mākou i kēia manawa…
He aha ka mea e waiho nei mākou…

[Verse 1]
E hele pū ana mākou i kēia ala, i nā lā e hala aku nei,
He puʻuwai wale nō i ka pō loa, he mele i lalo o ka lani.
Nā mea a pau e paʻa nei, nā mea a pau e manaʻo nei he no mākou,
E nalo ana i ka mālie — akā e ola ana ke aloha.

Ua hāpai anei mākou i ka puʻuwai luhi?
Ua kōkua anei mākou i kekahi e kū?
Ua hāʻawi anei mākou i ka nui?
Ua kīkoʻo anei mākou me nā lima hāmama?

[Pre-Chorus]
I ka hopena, ʻaʻole ka gula,
ʻAʻole ka mana i paʻa ai,
ʻO nā ola a mākou i hoʻopā ai i ke ala…

[Chorus / Hook – UNIVERSAL ANTHEM]
🌍 Ke pau mākou — he aha e koe?
Ke aloha a mākou i hāʻawi ai a i ʻole ka ʻeha hāmau?
ʻO nā puʻuwai a pau, nā ola a mākou i ʻike ai —
ʻO ia ke ao a mākou e waiho nei i ka wā e pau ai mākou.

🌍 Ke pau mākou — e ala anei lākou?
Nā puʻuwai ikaika a me nā maka hāmama?
ʻO nā ʻuhane a pau a mākou i kōkua ai e lilo —
ʻO ia ka wā e pau ai mākou.

Ke pau mākou… ke pau mākou…

[Verse 2]
He nāwaliwali kēia honua a mākou e noho nei, akā he nani a mālamalama,
ʻO kēlā me kēia hana lokomaikaʻi e lawe mai i kekahi kukui hou.
ʻAʻohe mea e hele wale ana inā koho mākou e ʻike,
ʻO kou ola a me kaʻu he moʻolelo hoʻokahi.

E aʻo i ke keiki ma kāu ʻaoʻao,
E hōʻike iā lākou pehea e mālama ai,
Hāʻawi iā lākou i ka nui o ka ʻike —
Hāʻawi iā lākou i ka manaʻolana e kaʻana ai.

[Pre-Chorus]
ʻO ka mea a mākou e kanu ai i nā puʻuwai kanaka,
E ola mau ana ma mua o mākou,
E kū ana i ka lōʻihi o kā mākou mau lā…

[Chorus / Hook – BIGGER LIFT]
🌍 Ke pau mākou — he aha e koe?
Ke aloha a mākou i hāʻawi ai a i ʻole ka ʻeha hāmau?
ʻO nā puʻuwai a pau, nā ola a mākou i ʻike ai —
ʻO ia ke ao a mākou e waiho nei i ka wā e pau ai mākou.

🌍 Ke pau mākou — e ala anei lākou?
Nā puʻuwai ikaika a me nā maka hāmama?
ʻO nā ʻuhane a pau a mākou i kōkua ai e lilo —
ʻO ia ka wā e pau ai mākou.

E ala… e ala… e ala lākou…

[Bridge – Choir + Global Voices]
(Soft → Massive Build)
Ohhh…

ʻO mākou ke alahaka mai kēia manawa a hiki i ka pō loa…

E hāpai i kou leo — no ka poʻe e hiki mai ana,
ʻO kēlā kaikamahine, kēlā keikikāne.
ʻO ka mea a mākou e hāʻawi ai e lilo i ko lākou ala,
Hoʻololi mākou i ka lā ʻapōpō i kēia lā.

ʻAʻohe hopohopo, ʻaʻohe māhele,
ʻO mākou hoʻokahi — e ala mākou me hoʻokahi.

[Final Chorus / Outro – FULL HUMAN ANTHEM]
🌍 Ke pau mākou — he aha e koe?
Ke aloha a mākou i hāʻawi ai a i ʻole ka ʻeha hāmau?
ʻO nā puʻuwai a pau, nā ola a mākou i ʻike ai —
ʻO ia ke ao a mākou e waiho nei i ka wā e pau ai mākou.

🌍 Ke pau mākou — e ala lākou,
Me ko mākou manaʻolana i loko o ko lākou mau maka.
ʻO nā ʻuhane a pau a mākou i kōkua ai e lilo —
ʻO ia ka wā e pau ai mākou.

👉 (Final Choir Chant)
ʻO mākou hoʻokahi… ʻo mākou hoʻokahi…

[Outro – Whisper + Piano Fade]
Ke noho wale nei mākou…
E hāpai i kekahi i kekahi…
