Lebanon's Journey to Freedom

[Instrumental]

Title: Shadows of Friendship (Verse 1) Once upon a time, we laughed till we cried, Shared our secrets and dreams, thought we’d never divide. But the words turned to whispers, the laughter turned to pain, What seemed like forever washed down the drain. (Chorus) Friendship feels like a shadow, drifting in the light, Promising forever, but fading out of sight. I gave you all my heart, but you left me all alone, Now I’m drowning in the echoes, searching for a home. (Verse 2) We painted the world bright, made memories so bold, But the truth was hidden, and the warmth turned to cold. When the storms came crashing, you were nowhere to be found, Just an empty space beside me, leaving scars all around. (Chorus) Friendship feels like a shadow, drifting in the light, Promising forever, but fading out of sight. I gave you all my heart, but you left me all alone, Now I’m drowning in the echoes, searching for a home. (Bridge) Oh, the smiles that we borrowed, the laughter we shared, Now it feels like a joke, I’m lost and scared. Thought you were my anchor, my shelter from the storm, But now I’m just a stranger, in this memory-laden swarm. (Chorus) Friendship feels like a shadow, drifting in the light, Promising forever, but fading out of sight. I gave you all my heart, but you left me all alone, Now I’m drowning in the echoes, searching for a home. (Outro) So I’ll pick up the pieces, learn to stand on my own, But the pain of lost connection, it cuts right to the bone. Friendship’s a fragile whisper, easily lost in the fray, And now I’m left with shadows, as our memories decay.

[अंतरा 1] छूटा जो हाथ वो लौटा नहीं खामोश दिल की सदा कोई सुनता नहीं तेरे बिना हर लम्हा अधूरा लगे ज़िंदगी अब बस तेरा नाम कहे [अंतरा 2] तेरी यादों में खुद को खोया तेरे बिना अब कुछ ना पाया आँखें भरी यूं ही सपनों से जैसे सब कुछ था बस अपनों से [कोरस] सुर तू था मेरा राग तू था मेरा तेरे बिना कबसे हूँ मैं अधूरा सपनों में आ तू मुझे सजा मेरे टूटे दिल को फिर से खिला [अंतरा 3] चाँद सितारों में तेरा ही चेहरा तेरे बिना सारा जहाँ लगे सुनहरा रातें लंबी हों और ख्वाब छोटे तेरी मोहब्बत की बातें अब खोटे [अंतरा 4] दिल के दरवाज़े तूने ही बंद किए खुद को तेरी चाहत में रेत समझे हर एक धड़कन तेरे नाम करे तेरे बिना ये दिल अब अजनबी लगे [कोरस] सुर तू था मेरा राग तू था मेरा तेरे बिना कबसे हूँ मैं अधूरा सपनों में आ तू मुझे सजा मेरे टूटे दिल को फिर से खिला

[Verse] Up in the trees where the sunlight gleams Daddy monkey swinging living dreams Banana leaves dancing in the breeze Little ones laughing with such ease [Verse 2] Climb so high under sky so blue Tails wrapped tight like vines we grew From the dawn until the night is through Sing a song just for you [Chorus] Hear the jungle music hum Beat of life on the bongo drum Little ones now settle down Close your eyes sleep's come to town [Bridge] In the moonlight shadows play Stars above will guide our way Dreams of running wild and free With your hearts in harmony [Verse 3] Fruit so sweet from the tallest trees With the sunrise come new melodies Tail in hand we explore the land Through the forest hand in hand [Chorus] Hear the jungle music hum Beat of life on the bongo drum Little ones now settle down Close your eyes sleep's come to town

[Verse] یادش به‌خیر اون شبای دور خنده‌ها و عشقهای کور دلای خوش با نگاه یار کوچه باغا توی اون دیار [Verse 2] خاطره‌ها با بوی گل اون چشمای مست و حالت دل کوچه‌باغای پر از شور روزایی که بود پر ز نور [Chorus] دل میخواست هنوزم باشیم توی اون کوچه‌ها راه بریم پاییز و زمستون و بهار با تو باشم ای عشق بی‌قرار [Bridge] خیالای خوب تا سحر تا بیداری صبح و ظهر با یکی بودی یه دنیا اون روزا بدی نداشتن جا [Verse 3] یادته که می‌گفتیم شبها داستانای قدیمی‌ها دست در دست با ترانه آرزوهای بی‌بهانه [Chorus] دل میخواست هنوزم باشیم توی اون کوچه‌ها راه بریم پاییز و زمستون و بهار با تو باشم ای عشق بی‌قرار

There once was a dragon, gentle and sweet, With rainbow scales and tiny feet. Unlike the tales of fire and fright, This dragon spread kindness, day and night. One day he found a lost little lamb, Trapped by a thorny bush’s jam. He used his flame, just a gentle puff, To burn the thorns—his flame was enough! The villagers watched and soon could see, This dragon was kind as kind could be. They gave him a home and called him a friend, Proving kindness wins in the end. Now every night, he lights the skies, With sparkling stars that mesmerize. The kind little dragon teaches us too, That helping others makes magic true.

**ଆଉ କିଛି କହ ତୁମେ** *(Male and Female Love Duet Song in Odia)* **ପୁରୁଷ ସ୍ୱର (Male Voice):** ତୁମେ ମୋର ଜୀବନର ସୁନା ରାତି, ସପନର ଗପ ମଧୁର କଥା। ତୁମେ ହସଲେ ଦେଖି ମୋ ପ୍ରାଣେ, ଖିଲିଯାଏ ଦିନ, ଝୁରି ଯାଏ ଗନ୍ଧ ମାଟି। **ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ସ୍ୱର (Female Voice):** ତୁମେ ମୋର ସାଗରର ନିଳ ଜଳ, ସେ ସ୍ପର୍ଶରେ ଜାଗେ ମନର ଭାସା। ତୁମେ ଛୁଇଲେ ଅଳିଅଅଳି ମନେ, ବୁଝେଇଦିଅ ଜୀବନର ଅସଳ କାହାଣୀ। **ସମ୍ମିଳିତ ସ୍ୱର (Together):** ଆଉ କିଛି କହ, ତୁମେ କାହିଁକି ଚୁପ! ଏଇ ରାତି ଆମ ସପନର ସାଥୀ। ଏ ଜୀବନ ହେଉ ସାଥ ସାଥିରେ, ପ୍ରେମରେ ଲିଖିବା ନୂଆ ଗାଥା। **ପୁରୁଷ ସ୍ୱର (Male Voice):** ଅସର ଘରେ ତୁମ ଦିଆଲୋ ଆଲୋ, ମୋ ହାତକୁ ଧର ଆଉ ଜାଇବା ତାଳେ। **ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ସ୍ୱର (Female Voice):** ତୁମ ସ୍ନେହରେ ମୁଁ ଖୋଜିଲି ସ୍ଵର୍ଗ, ଯେଉଁଠାରେ ତୁମ ପାଖେ ଅଛି ମୋ ମନ। **ସମ୍ମିଳିତ ସ୍ୱର (Together):** ଆଉ କିଛି କହ, ତୁମେ କାହିଁକି ଚୁପ! ଏଇ ରାତି ଆମ ସପନର ସାଥୀ। ଏ ଜୀବନ ହେଉ ସାଥ ସାଥିରେ, ପ୍ରେମରେ ଲିଖିବା ନୂଆ ଗାଥା। *(A slow melody with traditional Odia instrumental tones like flute and mardala can bring these lyrics to life.)*

I’m caught in a loop, it’s a déjà vu, Falling through the cracks of the things I knew. Chasing after echoes in an empty room, But every step I take just leads me back to you. I’m a runaway train, no track to find, A map with no compass, lost in my mind. All the words unsaid, they hang in the air, A fragile little silence, I’m not prepared. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, Now I’m nothing but the mess you made. I write it all down, but it won’t make sense, These paper walls can’t hold the consequence. A melody plays, it’s a bittersweet tune, Of the promises we broke beneath the moon. I’m a flickering light, just burning out, A whisper of hope, now drowned in doubt. Every note I sing, it cuts too deep, The ghosts of your memory won’t let me sleep. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, Now I’m nothing but the mess you made. And if I close my eyes, will I find peace? Or will I see the cracks beneath the seams? The silence screams louder than my heartbeat, I’m lost, I’m lost. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, But I still hold on to the mess you made.

Verse 1 It started at Corner House, a spark in the air, Eyes met, hearts raced, nothing could compare. December the 5th, a question, a vow, You held my hand, and time slowed down somehow. Pre-Chorus From first kiss on your birthday to the long sweet lift kises , Through romance in smoky tonic to the dates we ever went Every ice cream shared, every walk in stride, In your arms, I’ve found my home, my guide. Chorus Three years of us, through the highs and the lows, From city lights to where the ocean flows. Every fight, every laugh, every sleepless night, We’ve built a love so strong, it shines so bright. Verse 2 At Aryan’s house, was the firstnight of ours, Under the stars, we bloomed like flowers. Exam studies in cafes, to kisses in the lift, Life with you is the sweetest gift. Pre-Chorus The 3 AM ice cream runs to my PG, Your love for my stomach, oh, it’s so uniquely me. From nights at HungerCamp to shell petrolpump memories , Every moment with you, my heartbeat drops. Chorus Three years of us, through the highs and the lows, From city lights to where the ocean flows. Every fight, every laugh, every sleepless night, We’ve built a love so strong, it shines so bright. Bridge Through Goa sands and long-distance pain, We weathered the storm, danced in the rain. From Bangalore streets to promises made, Forever is ours, our love won’t fade. Outro So here’s to us, my Subray, my star, No matter the distance, no matter how far. With every step, every dream we pursue, I promise forever, just me and you. Chorus (Final) Three years of us, through the highs and the lows, From city lights to where the ocean flows. Every fight, every laugh, every sleepless night, We’ll stay together, our love’s burning bright. Ending Happy three years, my love, here’s to forever, Through all the fights, we’ll always endeavor. You’re my heart, my home, my every plan, Together we’ll stand, hand in hand. 💕
