Upendi (The Lion King II: Simba's Pride) Lyrics
RAFIKI:
There's a place where the crazy moon
Makes the monkeys sing and the baboons swoon
And the sultry scent of the lotus bloom
Will carry you away
Where the hippos swing from the jungle vines
And the rhino rhumba in a conga line
And the pink flamingoes are intertwined
As the stars come out to play
In Upendi
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will lead you there
KIARA:
Where is it?
RAFIKI:
No place you don't take with you...
You better watch your step 'cause the path is steep
Better hold your breath cause the water's deep
It's a long way down over Lovers' Leap
But falling's half the fun!
In Upendi
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will take you there
You can beat the bush like there's no tomorrow
From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro
But you'll find Upendi wherever you are
Oh underneath the sun
KIARA:
Upendi-- it means "love", doesn't it?
RAFIKI:
Welcome to Upendi!
RAFIKI and CHORUS:
In Upendi
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will take you there
KIARA:
Upendi!
RAFIKI and CHORUS:
Down In Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!
There's a place where the crazy moon
Makes the monkeys sing and the baboons swoon
And the sultry scent of the lotus bloom
Will carry you away
And the rhino rhumba in a conga line
And the pink flamingoes are intertwined
As the stars come out to play
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will lead you there
Where is it?
No place you don't take with you...
Better hold your breath cause the water's deep
It's a long way down over Lovers' Leap
But falling's half the fun!
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will take you there
From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro
But you'll find Upendi wherever you are
Oh underneath the sun
Upendi-- it means "love", doesn't it?
Welcome to Upendi!
In Upendi
Where the passionfruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will take you there
Upendi!
Down In Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!

First comment on Upendi. Come on. This is a great song. I'm so slow. Now that I think back on the song Upendi does mean love from the way they talkin about it. This is one of my favorite Disney songs. I actually could sing this whole thing on my first try.
I agreee, where is everyone, this song is the best! I think Upendi Generally means love, and the happiness and craziness that can be involved..
"That you lose your mind As it sweeps you off your feet" I love how he says sweeps :P
Like the menaing actually seems pretty obvious., but it's a beautiful, hapy song, I love it ^.^
This song always reminds me of sex, it's just full of innuendos.
