"Hawái" is a popular song by Colombian singer Maluma, released in 2020 as part of his album "Papi Juancho". In 2020, The Weeknd released a remix of the song, which he sang in both Spanish and English. The song explores themes of heartbreak and betrayal, as the Weeknd reflects on a past relationship and the pain he experienced.

The song begins with the Weeknd singing in Spanish, "Si ella quisiera volver, lo' errores arreglar". These lines suggest that the person the Weeknd is singing to has left him, and he is trying to make amends for past mistakes. He also acknowledges the pain he's experienced since the breakup, as he sings, "Yo sé que no he sido un santo, pero lo puedo arreglar".
