[Verse A 1:15–2:00] Tribal-orchestral groove: djembe + bodhrán; duduk lead melody; sitar counter-melodies; brass stabs — heroic mood.

[Chorus A 2:30–3:15] Cinematic drums; at 2:40 guitars enter (palm-muted riff); at 2:55 short screaming guitar solo echoing duduk; bagpipe staccato phrases — ethno‑metal fusion peak. [Transition 2 3:15–3:45] Minimal darbuka + rattles; distant bagpipe drone; slow string arpeggio — calm before the storm.

[Bridge B 4:20–4:40] Strings swell; sitar + pan flute call‑and‑response; layered shakers, conga pulse — tension build.
