[Verse] Through hazy mists on hills so wide The heather sways Our hearts abide Fields of green Where tales were spun Underneath the fading sun [Verse 2] The stone walls whisper ancient cries Of battles fought ‘neath moody skies The fiddle larks and pipes still call To sons and daughters One and all [Chorus] Oh Carry me to Erin’s shore Where rolling waves and hearts adore The clover grows The winds do sigh Beneath the weeping Endless sky [Verse 3] By lantern’s light The stories told Of hungry times and hearts so bold The spirits rise in amber glow Through laughter bright They heal the woe [Bridge] The raven calls from cliffs so stark The moon bears witness in the dark With sorrow’s weight We still will sing A hymn of hope through everything [Verse 4] When morning breaks We face the land With calloused palms and trembling hands Yet joy bursts forth like winter’s melt For love lives strong where roots are felt

[Verse] The schoolyard flag at half-mast flies, For the soldier who gave his life under skies, They bring him home in a flag-draped chest, A small-town hero laid to rest. [Verse 2] The second man rolls through on steel wheels, His world’s gone quiet, but the pain feels real, A hometown boy in a battle-torn shell, Living proof of some kind of hell. [Chorus] Three boots on the ground, but life's not the same, War takes its toll; it plays a cruel game, One’s laid to rest, one can’t ever stand, And one’s lost in ghosts he can't understand. [Verse 3] The third one stares at the county line, His body's here, but not his mind, He drinks alone 'til the bottle's dry, With haunted whispers and a thousand-mile cry. [Bridge] Mama’s tears fall every Sunday pew, Their stories blend, it don’t feel new, Prayers rise up for sons torn apart, But a war leaves scars on every heart. [Verse 4] And in the yard, three stones now stand, For three brothers who once shared this land, Different paths, but the bitter truth's the same, That not all who return can escape the pain.
[Verse] Shadows dance where the moonlight breaks A hollow wind that whispers and shakes Leaves crunch cold ‘neath the branches bare Eerie tales linger thick in the air [Verse] Lantern flickers like a ghostly flame The dark conceals but it knows your name Echoes chase down the empty trail In Sleepy Hollow all faces pale [Chorus] Run if you dare but the night won't sleep A headless rider wakes from the deep Through mist and fear his shadow will crawl You can't outrun the Hollow’s call [Verse] Hooves crash loud like your heartbeat’s drum Breathing frost in a world gone numb Wicked trees weave a crooked spell Each step closer to the gates of hell [Bridge] Eyes of fire scorch the midnight hue The road ahead only beckons you Chains of legend hold your soul tight No escape from this cursed night [Chorus] Run if you dare but the night won't sleep A headless rider wakes from the deep Through mist and fear his shadow will crawl You can't outrun the Hollow’s call
[Verse] जुन जस्ती निधारको कालो तिकी कानमा झुम्का बोकी अनि ओठमा लगाई लाली माया गरी सधैँभरी [Chorus] हाम्रो साथ रहोस जुनी भरी यो यात्रा कहिले नटुटोस कहिल्यै कही हृदयमा होस माया निरन्तर बगिरही साथ सधैँ पैलाभरी [Verse 2] आकाश जस्तो विशाल हाम्रो प्रेम पहाड जस्तो बलियो स्थिर छ त्यो नेम जुन जस्तै निलो मुहार सपना साझा होस् बारम्बार [Chorus] हाम्रो साथ रहोस जुनी भरी यो यात्रा कहिले नटुटोस कहिल्यै कही हृदयमा होस माया निरन्तर बगिरही साथ सधैँ पैलाभरी [Bridge] जुनले देखोस् हाम्रो उज्यालो बाटो सङ्गै लेखौँ हर दिनको नोट कलम होस् प्रेमले भिजेको हाम्रो कथा कहिले नबुझिएको [Chorus] हाम्रो साथ रहोस जुनी भरी यो यात्रा कहिले नटुटोस कहिल्यै कही हृदयमा होस माया निरन्तर बगिरही साथ सधैँ पैलाभरी
(Verse 1) Sunrise paints the ferry gold, a chill wind off the Sound, Another day on Whidbey's fold, where hidden homes are found. My tools are packed, my van is primed, a thermos steamin' hot, Another circuit intertwined, another tangled knot. From Langley's shores to Oak Harbor's bay, I'm chasin' every spark, A flicker here, a power sway, I'm leavin' my own mark. (Chorus) Whidbey wires, runnin' deep, through cedar, fir, and pine, From island homes where secrets sleep, to storefronts brightly shine. I'm the current's steady hand, the voltage's trusted guide, An electrician on this land, where nature's beauty hides. (Verse 2) A farmhouse old, with knob and tube, a relic of the past, A modern build, a sleek new cube, where solar panels cast. The salty air, the misty rain, the eagles overhead, I'm climbin' poles, again, again, where power lines are spread. The tide is low, the seagulls cry, a customer calls in need, A tripped breaker, blinkin' eye, a complicated deed. (Chorus) Whidbey wires, runnin' deep, through cedar, fir, and pine, From island homes where secrets sleep, to storefronts brightly shine. I'm the current's steady hand, the voltage's trusted guide, An electrician on this land, where nature's beauty hides. (Bridge) Sometimes the ferry's late at night, the fog hangs thick and low, But when I flip that switch to light, the satisfaction starts to grow. A warm glow in a cabin's pane, a porch lamp shinin' bright, I know I've eased another pain, and chased away the night. (Chorus) Whidbey wires, runnin' deep, through cedar, fir, and pine, From island homes where secrets sleep, to storefronts brightly shine. I'm the current's steady hand, the voltage's trusted guide, An electrician on this land, where nature's beauty hides. (Outro) The sun descends, a crimson hue, across the Puget's face, Another job, another view, a peaceful, quiet space. I park my van, my day is done, the tools are put away, Another spark, another one, to brighten Whidbey's day.
[Verse] Underneath the willow tree's shade Eyes glistened in the light summer fade Barefoot whispers in fields of thyme Your hand fits perfectly Fingers intertwined [Chorus] Oh The rush The careless bloom Hearts racing under the waxing moon Every stolen laugh Every stolen glance Time holds still in this tender dance [Verse] The old gravel road We’d traced it slow Wildflowers bloomed where the soft winds blow Barely a word Yet everything’s clear In quiet moments Love draws near [Bridge] A melody hums where words should be Soft as the ripple of the distant sea The world is louder But in our sphere It’s just you Just me—it’s all we hear [Chorus] Oh The rush The careless bloom Hearts racing under the waxing moon Every stolen laugh Every stolen glance Time holds still in this tender dance [Verse] Seasons roll by But this remains Love stitched in the lines of our fleeting gains The younger days may someday fade But the song of us It will not parade

[Verse] Boots dusty, worn from foreign sand He fought for dreams, for this sacred land A mother’s tears soak the soil, undone Her boy's coming home, but without the sun [Chorus] Home draped in stars, the red, white, and blue Echoes of the bugle, a somber tune Heroes lie quiet, where freedom blooms But oh, the silence fills the room [Verse 2] Letters unopened, birthday cards signed Memories of laughter, frozen in time A folded flag placed gently in her hand His sacrifice more than she could understand [Chorus] Home draped in stars, the red, white, and blue Echoes of the bugle, a somber tune Heroes lie quiet, where freedom blooms But oh, the silence fills the room [Bridge] Fireworks of sorrow light the darkest skies A salute for the brave, through teary eyes He walks no more, this earth he roamed But in our hearts, he'll always be home [Chorus] Home draped in stars, the red, white, and blue Echoes of the bugle, a somber tune Heroes lie quiet, where freedom blooms But oh, the silence fills the room
[Verse] From the land of spice and sacred streams I followed dreams wrapped in golden seams Ten years ago I took that flight Chasing stars across the night [Verse 2] An F1 visa and battered shoes A thousand hopes with nothing to lose Through the cities of steel I’d roam But the world never felt like home [Chorus] Ten years away from the monsoon songs Trading traditions for bustling throngs Oh Mother India I hear your call In this foreign sky It’s you I stall [Verse 3] From Delhi dust to the New York snow I carry pieces wherever I go Chapati memories and trains that sway In my heart they’d always stay [Bridge] I've traveled far but I always find That home’s a place you can’t leave behind Through every state and every ride I hear the rivers of Ganges inside [Chorus] Ten years away from the banyan trees Caught in a storm of bustling seas Oh Mother India I hear your call But this land of dreams It made me fall
[Verse] Ryszard Ptasiński Mąż wielkiej cnoty W Starachowicach imię ma wielkie Człowiek honoru Mistrz jednej roboty Gdy sprzęt zawodzi Bez niego bieda wszelka [Verse 2] Komputer Serwer Czy laptop na stole Każdy się kłania Gdy Ryszard przybywa W Giga-Net siedzi Tam jego chwały pole Tam siła rozumu w każdej chwili ożywa [Chorus] Ryszardzie Mistrzu Ratuj nasz świat Bo technologia czasem strasznie płata figle Twoje dłonie cuda czynią raz po raz W ich ruchach czujemy wirtualne skrzydła [Bridge] Opowiadają Że czasem w podziemiach Z wirusami walczy jak rycerz w bitwie Jego klawiatura błyszczy w promieniach A my liczymy na dalsze perspektywy [Verse 3] Gdy zasilacz spali Ekran ciemny w ciszy Wtedy Ryszard wkracza niczym heros z bajki Starachowicki geniusz Co każdy to przyzna Zawsze znajdzie sposób Naprawy tajniki [Chorus] Ryszardzie Mistrzu Znowu nas ratuj Technologia bez ciebie jest jak ocean burzy Twoje serce bije w takt klawiatury Bez twojej mądrości nikt nas nie wzburzy
