[Intro]
Echoes of names drift slow across the room
A tapestry of voices in a crowded bloom
[Verse 1]
Gleaming in titles, soft as a velvet night
We raise our glasses to the sparks in light
Friends and faces woven through the song
Each syllable a memory that lingers long
[Pre-Chorus]
Eddy and the whispers, a mountain of names
Holding the chorus steady, like a flame
[Chorus]
Oh, hein, oh (Hein, hein)
Oh, hein, oh (Boma)
Oh, hein, oh (Hein, hein)
Oh, hein, oh (Niata)
[Verse 2]
Best Man and the promises we keep
Through every laugh and breath we sweep
Bozalaki kozela, we rise again
Tokomi na bokoko, to never end
[Pre-Chorus]
Chorus swelling wide, a caravan in rhyme
Chasing the dawn beyond the lines of time
[Chorus]
Oh, hein, oh (Shimba)
Oh, hein, oh (Bonga)
Oh, hein, oh (Zakala)
Oh, hein, oh (Ah telema)
[Bridge]
Baril ya pétrole, a bright, burning thread
We sing for the ones who light the path ahead
César, Michel, Felicien, Fiston and more
Names like constellations guiding us to shore
[Chorus]
Oh, hein, oh (Yirika Tio)
Oh, hein, oh (Tikotisa)
Oh, hein, oh
(Shimba) Oh, hein, oh (Bonga, Zakala)
[Outro]
Ahh telema, we carry the chorus home
A chorus of hearts, no one stands alone
