[Intro: Bold trumpet solo, driving dangdut drums, offbeat reggae bassline, bamboo flute flourishes, 8 bars] [Verse 1] Market stalls glow with lantern light Neighbors link arms in the warm night Bassline thumps like a second heartbeat Flute spins joy through crowded feet [Chorus] !WE DANCE WHERE THE PAVEMENT CRACKS! !LAUGHTER LIFTS WHAT BURDEN LACKS! Trumpet shouts above the din One rhythm—where we all begin [Verse 2] Grandma’s sambal steams the air Kids drum on buckets without a care Rain last week washed the street clean Now we stomp out what sorrow’s been [Chorus] !WE DANCE WHERE THE PAVEMENT CRACKS! !LAUGHTER LIFTS WHAT BURDEN LACKS! Trumpet shouts above the din One rhythm—where we all begin [Bridge: Flute solo over syncopated bass, percussion intensifies, 6 bars] No need for palaces or gold Just hands that hold when nights grow cold The street’s our stage, the moon our guide Together—we rise with every stride [Chorus] !WE DANCE WHERE THE PAVEMENT CRACKS! !LAUGHTER LIFTS WHAT BURDEN LACKS! Trumpet shouts above the din One rhythm—where we all begin One rhythm—never giving in! [Outro: Trumpet and flute trade calls, drums fade with final bass pulse, 6 bars]
