[Verse] In the rhythm of the night feel the beat Tabla's voice speaks of tales complete Hands dance on drums ancient sound Echoes rise as hearts unbound [Verse 2] In the quiet dawn whispers start to play Under the sky where the dawn meets day Fingers tap stories lost in time Tabla sings with voices so sublime [Chorus] Tabla speaks in a language we all know Heartbeat of the earth watch it grow Melodies woven in every thrum Feel the power of the drum [Verse 3] In the shaded grove where shadows fall Tabla calls with a voice so tall Echoing through the silent air Mystic beats without a care [Verse 4] Tales of ages in a single strike Tabla tells us of the day and night In its rhythm we find our way Every beat a word to say [Bridge] Across the sands of time it flies Tabla's beat never fades or dies In every soul drums will ignite In its rhythm we find our light

[Verse] Sitar strings singin', tabla heart beatin' In the land of peacocks, where the sun's heat's seepin' Colors burst bright, rangoli on the street Ancestral whispers echo, in the roots I keep deep. [Chorus] Never leave my roots, they carved out my soul Story of my people, in my heart it unfolds From the raga in the wind to the diyas that glow Indian culture, my essence, I'll never let go. [Verse 2] Dhol thunder boomin', voices chant in the sky Kite threads tangle, but dreams aim high Mango leaf garlands in the air, so sweet Legacy of empire, on my rhymes we meet. [Bridge] Spices in the air, flavors dance on the tongue Ancestors' rhythm, every lesson they sung In the temple of my heart, I pray and stay steady Carving words in the beat, my roots always ready. [Chorus] Never leave my roots, they carved out my soul Story of my people, in my heart it unfolds From the raga in the wind to the diyas that glow Indian culture, my essence, I'll never let go. [Verse 3] Bangles clink, reflecting moonlight's shine Henna's art mapped, in its pattern I find The thread of my spirit, stitches tales of my land Mother India's warmth, I hold close in my hand.

[Intro] [guitar] [Verse 1] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Suspended between yesterday and tomorrow, in an endless present And we were together, defying time Creating a world, our hearts as witnesses [acoustic guitar] [Verse 2] These walls are empty and dark, The water I drink threatens to intoxicate me Your scent revives my soul You who support me so we don’t fall, You who support me so we don’t fall [Chorus] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Suspended between yesterday and tomorrow, in an endless present And we were together, defying time Creating a world, our hearts as witnesses [bridge] [tenor sax] [Verse 3] No matter the clock and its hungry hands No matter the world and its desperate calls In this fragile bubble we’ve woven together Eternity is measured in exchanged glances [Outro] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Creators of a time that belongs only to us And we will be together when other dawns arrive You who support me so I don’t sink, You who support me so I don’t sink.
