[Intro]
Dakar echoes in the night, a message threads the light
From a distance, a name kept close, a memory taking flight
[Verse 1]
Nafisa, the voice in the text, a thread across the screen
Words like footprints in the sand, a whisper in between
You speak of time that teaches truth, of knowing through the days
I hear your pulse in every line, a hopeful, cautious blaze
[Pre-Chorus]
If I don’t know you yet, I’m listening through the noise
Each message like a doorway, inviting me with choice
[Chorus]
I don’t know you fully, but I’m learning who you are
With every message, every line, you’re shaping who we are
Time will tell the stories that we dare to say
NAFISA, I listen, I’m here, to find our brighter way
[Verse 2]
You keep the hours close, 22 and counting more
Names and places circle round, like a distant, familiar shore
I’m here in the glow of the screen, a cautious, open heart
Hoping to uncover you with patience, not a spark that quickly parts
[Pre-Chorus]
If the bond grows slowly, that’s how we might endure
Two souls along a coastline, discovering what’s pure
[Chorus]
I don’t know you fully, but I’m learning who you are
With every message, every line, you’re shaping who we are
Time will tell the stories that we dare to say
NAFISA, I listen, I’m here, to find our brighter way
[Bridge]
Bilahi, walahi, the words I speak are true
I walk the path of trust, and I’ll keep faith with you
[Chorus]
I don’t know you fully, but I’m learning who you are
With every message, every line, you’re shaping who we are
Time will tell the stories that we dare to say
NAFISA, I listen, I’m here, to find our brighter way
[Outro]
NAFISA, this is where beginnings start to bloom
Across the miles, your voice finds me and clears the room
