(Intro)
(Steady, acoustic guitar picking starts, followed by a deep drum heartbeat)
Yeah...
From the roots of the earth, where the trees stand tall.
Listen close to the soil, it remembers it all.
Mungule... yeah.
This is the ground we walk on.
(Verse 1)
In the heart of Mungule, where the dust meets the sky,
There’s a name in the wind that time can’t pass by.
Built from the struggle, grown from the rain,
A legacy deep that will always remain.
Every step on this earth is a story that’s told,
Of a man and his land, more precious than gold.
(Chorus)
We are standing on the ground, standing on the truth,
Living out the lessons passed down from our youth.
Oh, Mr. Ngoma’s soil, where the deep roots grow,
Pa Mungule, it’s the only home we know.
Shine a light on the name, let the rhythm take flight,
We hold our heads high in the morning light.
(Verse 2)
They can talk about the world, they can look for the fame,
But there’s power in the soil when you call out the name.
It’s the sweat of the brow, it’s the strength in the chest,
Taking care of the people, out-standing the rest.
No matter how far the road takes us away,
The dust of Mungule is where we will stay.
(Chorus)
We are standing on the ground, standing on the truth,
Living out the lessons passed down from our youth.
Oh, Mr. Ngoma’s soil, where the deep roots grow,
Pa Mungule, it’s the only home we know.
Shine a light on the name, let the rhythm take flight,
We hold our heads high in the morning light.
(Bridge)
(Tempo slows slightly, focus on the heavy bass drum and vocals)
It’s more than a title, it’s the blood in the clay.
It’s the promise we keep at the end of the day.
Greatness isn't given, it’s built from the floor...
And this soil will remember forevermore.
(Outro)
Pa Mungule...
Mr. Ngoma’s soil.
The roots run deep.
The name stands tall.
(Guitar fades out with a final, heavy drum hit)
