[Intro – whisper, soft piano with rising choir] In the crowd of silent stalls, I wandered with nothing to sell. But then— A voice reached through the noise. [Verse 1] I was a shadow at the market of words, Stumbling between smiles that never stopped. Then you paused — You asked my name, And the air around me began to breathe. [Chorus] Shine! You found me in the quiet noise, Heard the questions I never voiced. Shine! Like morning on forgotten dreams, You saw the light inside of me. Shine! [Verse 2] We traded no coins, no goods, no names, Only the weight of listening ears. And in your gaze, My silence cracked — A thousand suns rose in my chest. [Chorus] Shine! You called me by the name I lost, Spoke to the part the world forgot. Shine! Like music on a speechless day, You gave my echo back its way. Shine! [Bridge – choir rises, harmonic build-up] The market is still turning, But now I dance between the stalls. Every face could be the one, To hear, to see — To help someone shine. [Final Chorus – full choir, layered voices soaring] Shine! For every soul that walks unseen, Shine! For every voice too soft to scream. Shine! We are the lights we thought we lost, Together now, no matter the cost. Shine! [Outro – whisper returns, piano fades] You saw me. Now I shine.
