One Rhythm

[Verse 1]
[Male] Your name is a melody caught in my breath,
[Female] Your hand finds mine, and the world grows still.
[Male] The romantic strings shimmer beneath the night,
[Female] I answer your heart, and it answers mine.

[Chorus]
[Both] Come close, my love, let the old songs rise,
[Both] Two hearts, one rhythm beneath Ethiopian skies.
[Both] When the kebero calls, I’ll be by your side,
[Both] Your love is my home, my song, my guide.

[Verse 2]
[Female] The masenqo weeps, but we don’t turn away,
[Male] We make every sorrow a softer refrain.
[Female] Your laugh lifts the dust from the road we roam,
[Male] Wherever you are, that’s where I’m home.

[Bridge]
[Male] If the night grows long—
[Female] I’ll sing you through.
[Both] One breath, one beat, one love made true.

[Outro]
[Both] Stay near, my love, as the last strings fade.
