Hakuna matata" is a Swahili saying meaning "no worries". Literally translated, it means "Worries I have none."
[edit]
In culture
Young Simba, Pumbaa and Timon cross a log while singing "Hakuna Matata" in The Lion King.To many outside the Swahili-speaking world, it would seem that the phrase was first popularised by, and perhaps even invented for, the Disney movie The Lion King. However, there have been previous examples of the saying breaking through to international cultures.
In 1980 the Kenyan hotel band Them Mushrooms released the song "Jambo Bwana" ("Hello Mister") which became an international hit. The song, written by band leader Teddy Kalanda Harrison, repeated the phrase "Hakuna Matata" in its refrain. This was covered in 1984 by the German disco-pop outfit Boney M as "Jambo Hakuna Matata (No Problems)", released on the album Kalimba De Luna (16 Happy Songs With Boney M).
The saying first appeared in Western cartoons in the Swedish comic book Bamse in the mid 1980s, where Bamse's baby daughter Brumma's first words are Hakuna Matata, which no-one understands except Skalman. He made it his and Brumma's "secret" motto, and the phrase has reappeared several times in the cartoon. Bamse was created by Rune Andréasson.
In Disney's 1994 movie, a meerkat and a warthog named Timon and Pumbaa, respectively, teach a lion cub named Simba that he should forget his troubled past and concentrate only on the present. In reference to the two characters, the phrase had the added implication of a complete lack of ambition. Timon and Pumbaa used the song "Hakuna Matata," with music by Elton John and lyrics by Tim Rice, to teach Simba.

"Hakuna Matata" It means no worries, for the rest of your days. To quote Timon & Pumbaa, "It means you gotta put your past, in your behind. Er, you have to put your past, behind you."
To quote Rafiki(the crazy monkey) "Ah, yes, the past can hurt, but, you can either run from it, (swings stick) or, learn from it!"
