Room at the Fire-Luganda (Mash Up)

[Intro] [grand piano arpeggios, soft string pads] [Verse 1] [male tenor vocals] Baza kule bisenge muntisana mayinja They built their walls from fear and stone Bawandika kubuli mulyango nti sikwaffe Marked every gate with not our own [acoustic guitar enters] Naye nnatambula mu bifo eby'ekisisi But I have walked where silence grows Nensanga ensigo z'okusasira ezimera And found the seeds that mercy sows [Chorus] [full orchestral strings enter, cinematic percussion] Bagoba emitima egyakubanga egy'awild (egyakubanga egy'awild) They cast out hearts that beat too wild Gayanjamulabika gayalutalo Too soft, too strange, too undefiled [brass swells] Naye nnyimba n'emikono gyange emenyese But I have sung with broken wings Era mpulira amazima agaleeta obutuuzi And heard the truth that exile brings [Post-Chorus] [choir enters, driving drum kit] Webakugamba nti toli wa wano So if they say you don't belong Jjukira amazima agamala ebbanga okusinga obubi Remember truth outlives the wrong [cymbal crash] Waliwo ekifo kumuliro eri buli maaso There's room at the fire for every face Eri buli mwoyo gwebagezako okusangula For every soul they tried to erase Tosaba, tobeeka (No need to beg, no need to hide) Jjangu oyimirire wano n'essanyu ery'amanyi Come take your place with fearless pride Ffe tulumu sana we bagezako okuzikiza We are the light they tried to dim Naye emunyenye tesegeza muntu ayingira But stars don't ask who lets them in [Bridge] [piano solo, strings decrescendo] [Verse 2] Batisaba abaloota nga bakyali bato They fear the ones who dare to dream Abobogera mu ddoboozi ery'ennyimba Who spoke in chords, not in routine [strings crescendo, staccato violins] Naye nzinidde mu bisikirize But I have danced with shadows too Nentunga amannya gaabwe mu bululu obw'ekiro And stitched their names in midnight blue [Chorus 2] [full anthem, choir and orchestra at peak volume] Webakugamba nti toli wa wano So if they say you don't belong Jjukira amazima agamala ebbanga okusinga obubi Remember truth outlives the wrong Abatwedwa, abatwedwa, abajjemu, abalaba The outcast, orphan, rebel, seer Ffe twazimba eno ennyumba, era tukyali wano We built this world, we're still right here [Outro] [drums drop out, piano and soft strings remain] Waliwo ekifo kumuliro eri buli maaso There's room at the fire for every face Eri buli mwoyo gwebagezako okusangula For every soul they tried to erase Tosaba, tobeeka (No need to beg, no need to hide) Jjangu oyimirire wano n'essanyu ery'amanyi Come take your place with fearless pride Ffe tulumu sana we bagezako okuzikiza We are the light they tried to dim Naye emunyenye tesegeza muntu ayingira But stars don't ask who lets them in [final piano chord fades]
