**Calla** (Verse 1) In the fading light, you lost your spark, Once a wildflower, now a whisper in the dark. Silken dreams hung low, like shadows in the thaw, A smile drowned in silence, who could ever care for you at all? (Chorus) Calla, calla, where did you go? Through the fevered nights, into the depths of woe. There’s a hand to hold, a light to guide you home, Through the echoes of your heart, you’re not alone. (Verse 2) Pictures on the wall, they flicker and retreat, A laugh that used to dance now walks with heavy feet. In every crowded room, you wear your skin like stone, The world’s a haunting ghost, but we are here, we’re not unknown. (Chorus) Calla, calla, where did you go? Through the fevered nights, into the depths of woe. There’s a hand to hold, a light to guide you home, Through the echoes of your heart, you’re not alone. (Bridge/Climax) And I see you fading, slipping through the cracks, But I promise you, Calla, I won’t turn my back. In the echoes, in the silence, hear the cry, There’s a voice in the shadows saying, "Let’s try, oh let’s try." (Verse 3) In the quiet dawn, your spirit starts to wake, From the branches of despair, there’s life still to partake. With fingers intertwined, we’ll trace the lines of hope, In every heartbeat, we’ll learn to rise, and we’ll learn to cope. (Chorus) Calla, calla, now you’re not alone, Through the mirrored nights and paths overgrown. There’s a hand to hold, a light to guide you home, With the echoes of your heart, we’ll build a brighter throne. (Outro) So lift your weary head, let the blossoms bloom, In the garden of your soul, there’s always room. Calla, calla, let the song begin anew, In the arms of the night, I’ll always stand by you

Salita ng Karunungan Verse 1: Mundo na puno ng mga tinig, Sa bawat salita, Isang ideya, sa isang pangarap Mula sa tinta, hanggang sa karunungan. Pagkakataon mo na na magbukas ng pinto. Chorus: Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Sa bawat pagninilay, isip ay mulat. Komunikasyon, tulay ng mga ideya, Bunga ng diwa, nag-uumapaw na pag-asa. Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Buksan ang mata, sa bawat mensahe ng buhay. Verse 2: Sa bawat tula, bawat kwento’y may saysay, Sa bawat libro, sa bawat pahina’y may buhay. Di lamang sa mga salita, kundi sa nilalaman, Nagmumula ang lakas ng isang bayan. Sa mga diskurso, ang pagbabago'y nagsisimula, Kahit isang simpleng pahayag, may kahulugan na. Ang talino ay hinuhubog ng bawat ideya, Sa mga salitang bumangon mula sa bawat diwa. Chorus: Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Sa bawat pagninilay, isip ay mulat. Komunikasyon, tulay ng mga ideya, Bunga ng diwa, nag-uumapaw na pag-asa. Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Buksan ang mata, sa bawat mensahe ng buhay. Bridge: Ang ating wika, sa puso'y nakaukit, Pagbabalik-tanaw, maghahatid ng liwanag. Sa bawat talakayan, at sa bawat diskurso, Laging may aral, at may landas na tapat. Chorus: Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Sa bawat pagninilay, isip ay mulat. Komunikasyon, tulay ng mga ideya, Bunga ng diwa, nag-uumapaw na pag-asa. Mula sa salita, hanggang karunungan, Buksan ang mata, sa bawat mensahe ng buhay. Outro: Ang bawat salitang ating binigkas, tila may kahulugan, Sa ating mga diwa, magbabalik-loob. Mula sa salita, tayo'y mahuhubog, Mula sa karunungan, tayo'y maglalakbay, Mula sa gabay ay may liwanag.
[Verse] Your eyes are like stars in the dimmest of nights Whispering secrets they hold on so tight The moon plays a tune that weaves through the air As we dance together without any care [Verse 2] In the garden of dreams where nothing is real Our hands tell stories that words cannot steal Golden moments lost in a shimmer of glow With each passing heartbeat our love starts to grow [Chorus] Love sings its soft melody deep in our hearts We are two souls that never will part Caught in the rhythm of a beautiful song In each other's arms is where we belong [Verse 3] The wind carries wishes on silent flight Through whispers of leaves in the tender night Your voice is the lullaby that soothes my mind A symphony sweet and perfectly timed [Bridge] Lilac petals fall like kisses from above In this world of wonder built by our love Every glance and smile a serenade In a timeless embrace our dreams are made [Chorus] Love sings its soft melody deep in our hearts We are two souls that never will part Caught in the rhythm of a beautiful song In each other's arms is where we belong

Oh, Diane from Aldbury, she’s classy and bright, Set off to her book club on a Thursday night, With Austen and Brontë and Hemingway’s prose, She’s got her good wine glass and her fanciest clothes! [Chorus] But oh Diane, what a scene, Tipsy as a lord, but feelin’ like a queen! Textin’ on her phone, she was feelin’ just fine, But down she went, after too much wine! [Verse 2] The book talk was lively, the laughs came fast, With each sip of Shiraz, she was havin’ a blast. “Just one more glass!” she proclaimed with pride, And forgot all about her walk back outside. [Chorus] Oh Diane, what a scene, Tipsy as a lord, but feelin’ like a queen! Textin’ on her phone, she was feelin’ just fine, But down she went, after too much wine! [Verse 3] Now Aldbury’s quiet at the end of the day, But here comes Diane, swayin’ down the way, With her heels clackin’ loudly on the village street, And her eyes on her phone, not watchin’ her feet! [Chorus] Oh Diane, what a scene, Tipsy as a lord, but feelin’ like a queen! Textin’ on her phone, she was feelin’ just fine, But down she went, after too much wine! [Bridge] She tripped on the curb, with a gasp and a shout, Her book club bag spillin’ as she tumbled about! Flat on her face, oh, her pride took a hit, And her leg got bruised where she took that big split. [Verse 4] Now Diane’s limpin’ home, lookin’ worse for wear, With a bruise on her leg and wine in her hair, But she laughs as she thinks, “I’m still feelin’ fine, Just next week, maybe… half as much wine!” [Final Chorus] Oh Diane, what a scene, Tipsy as a lord, but still our Aldbury queen! The book club might gossip, but that’s quite alright, For Diane had one heck of a night! [Outro] So here’s to Diane, our brave bookish friend, May her texts stay unbroken, her bruises all mend. She’ll laugh and she’ll say, with a glint in her eye, “That’s the last time I’ll go home with my head to the sky!”
Siempre al lado de la mesa, firme y quieta en su lugar, viendo charlas y risas, mientras el tiempo pasa sin cesar. Pero un día la separaron, sin una palabra, sin un adiós, y ahora sola en un rincón, la silla se quedó, sin voz. (Estribillo) Oh, silla triste, ¿dónde vas a ir? Si la mesa ya no te deja existir, ya no hay platos, ya no hay gente, solo el polvo, la soledad presente. Oh, silla olvidada, ¿quién te va a ver? Si la mesa te arrastra y te hace desaparecer, tu madera llora, tu cojín suspira, y en el rincón se apaga tu vida. (Verso 2) El eco de las risas se fue, la mesa ya no tiene razón, las voces se ahogan en la nada, y la silla se pierde en el olvido, sin canción. El tiempo pasa lentamente, y ella espera en su rincón, como un sueño perdido, como un recuerdo sin corazón. (Estribillo) Oh, silla triste, ¿dónde vas a ir? Si la mesa ya no te deja existir, ya no hay platos, ya no hay gente, solo el polvo, la soledad presente. Oh, silla olvidada, ¿quién te va a ver? Si la mesa te arrastra y te hace desaparecer, tu madera llora, tu cojín suspira, y en el rincón se apaga tu vida. (Puente) Y aunque el viento la toque, y el sol la acaricie, la silla sigue esperando a que alguien la recuerde, a que alguien la vuelva a mirar. (Estribillo) Oh, silla triste, ¿dónde vas a ir? Si la mesa ya no te deja existir, ya no hay platos, ya no hay gente, solo el polvo, la soledad presente. Oh, silla olvidada, ¿quién te va a ver? Si la mesa te arrastra y te hace desaparecer, tu madera llora, tu cojín suspira, y en el rincón se apaga tu vida.
Verse 1: Sometimes I feel like I’m drinkin’ alone, Me only true mate is me beat-up old phone, The outback I roam in, this sunburnt ol' land, Lonely as I am, a cold one in hand. Verse 2: I cruise dusty roads, 'cause they know me best, Walk through the bush, findin' shade for a rest, She feels me tough days, and she cools me with breeze, And worries come round, like flies and mozzies. Chorus: I don't ever wanna feel like I did that night, Take me to me fav’rite pub, where the beers are right, I don't ever wanna feel like I did that night, Take me to me fav’rite spot, where the stars shine bright. Post-Chorus: Yeah, yeah, yeah, mate. Verse 3: It's hard to believe there’s no cobbers ‘round, Hard to believe I’m out here, no sound, At least I’ve got this land, she’s always here for me, Lonely as I am, she knows what I see. Chorus: I don't ever wanna feel like I did that night, Take me to me fav’rite pub, where the beers are right, I don't ever wanna feel like I did that night, Take me to me fav’rite spot, where the stars shine bright. Bridge: Yeah, yeah, yeah, mate, Oh, nah, nah, nah, yeah, yeah, A coldie in hand, yeah, yeah. Outro: (Under the bridge out back) Where I found me peace, (Under the bridge out back) With me mind at ease, (Under the bridge out back) Left worries all behind, (Under the bridge out back) Gave this life o’ mine, yeah. Yeah, yeah. (Away) Oh, nah, nah nah nah, yeah yeah. (Away) Under the stars, yeah yeah. (Away) Where I'll stay.
Verse 1: Oi, listen up, mate, here’s a yarn, ‘Bout a bloke out back on his farm, Everything’s blue, fair dinkum it’s true, From his stubby to his ute, his flanno too. Blue’s his shed, his old Commodore, Blue esky chillin’ out by the door, Got blue gum trees as far as ya see, And he’s blue ‘cause he’s lonely as a bloke can be. Chorus: I'm blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Yeah, I’m blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day. Verse 2: Got me a blue shack with a blue tin roof, Blue thongs, blue socks, I swear it’s the truth, Blue trackies on the washing line, And me blue stubby holder’s mighty fine. Blue kangaroos jumpin’ round the yard, Blue as the beer in me chilly bin jarred, Blue are me thoughts as I sip on me brew, And blue are the feels when the day is through. Chorus: I'm blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Yeah, I’m blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day. Verse 3: Got a blue ute parked out in the sun, And me blue heeler’s ready to run, Blue gum smoke as we light the fire, Me blue sky dreams just reachin' higher. Blue are the mates who wander ‘round, Out here in blue gum country ground, Blue’s the sunset, the stars up high, Blue as the stories I’m tellin’ tonight. Chorus: I'm blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Yeah, I’m blue, oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day, Oi roo-di-da-di-day. Outro: I’m blue as a billy boilin’ on the flame, In this blue life, everything’s the same.
