[Dzongkha] When We're Gone

Lyrics

[Intro – Soft piano + distant choir]  
Hmmmm…  
Ohhh…  
Nkhani yathu ikupita…  
Kodi chiyani chidzakhala chotsalira…

[Verse 1]  
Tiyenda m’khalidwe limodzi, ngakhale masiku akupita,  
Zikuwoneka ngati mtima mu nthawi ya chiyenda,  
Zinthu zonse zomwe timazikonda, zonse zomwe tikuganiza,  
Zimakhalapo m’kukhala — koma chikondi chidzakhala.

Kodi tinathandiza mtima wopweteka?  
Kodi tinathandiza wina kumanga?  
Kodi tinapereka zambiri?  
Kodi tinakhalabe ndi dzanja lofungula?

[Pre-Chorus]  
Pakuti pamapeto si golide,  
Sizikhalidwe zomwe tili nazo,  
Ndi moyo zomwe timakumana nawo panjira…

[Chorus / Hook – UNIVERSAL ANTHEM]  
🌍 Tikachoka — chiyani chidzakhala?  
Chikondi chomwe tinapereka kapena kupweteka?  
Mtima uliwonse, moyo uliwonse tidadziwa —  
Ndi dziko lomwe timasiya tikachoka.

🌍 Tikachoka — kodi adzakhuta?  
Mtimawa olimba ndi maso okumbukira?  
Moyo uliwonse timathandiza kukhala —  
Ndi tsogolo tikachoka.

👉 (Soft Echo Layer)  
Tikachoka… tikachoka…

[Verse 2]  
Dziko limene timagawana ndi m’khalidwe, koma ndi losavuta komanso lokongola,  
Chochita chachikondi chilimbikitsa kuwala kwina.  
Palibe amene akuyenda yekha ngati tikufuna kuwona,  
Moyo wako ndi wanga ndi nkhani imodzi.

Phunzitsani mwana wopanda ndevu,  
Muwonetse momwe mungakhalire,  
Perekani zambiri kuposa chidziwitso —  
Perekani chiyembekezo chofanana.

[Pre-Chorus]  
Chomwe timapanga m’mitima ya anthu,  
Chikhalira kuposa zonse zomwe tili,  
Chikhalira nthawi yaitali kuposa masiku athu…

[Chorus / Hook – BIGGER LIFT]  
🌍 Tikachoka — chiyani chidzakhala?  
Chikondi chomwe tinapereka kapena kupweteka?  
Mtima uliwonse, moyo uliwonse tidadziwa —  
Ndi dziko lomwe timasiya tikachoka.

🌍 Tikachoka — kodi adzakhuta?  
Mtimawa olimba ndi maso okumbukira?  
Moyo uliwonse timathandiza kukhala —  
Ndi tsogolo tikachoka.

👉 (Choir Layer)  
Kukhuta… kukhuta… adzakhuta…

[Bridge – Choir + Global Voices]  
(Soft → Massive Build)  
Ohhh…

Ndife chingwe kuchokera pano kupita patsogolo…

Kweza mawu anu — kwa amene akubwera,  
Mwana wanga, mwana wanga.  
Chomwe timapereka chikakhala njira yawo,  
Timapangitsa tsogolo lero.

Palibe mantha, palibe kutsegula,  
Ndife imodzi — timakweza ngati imodzi.

[Final Chorus / Outro – FULL HUMAN ANTHEM]  
🌍 Tikachoka — chiyani chidzakhala?  
Chikondi chomwe tinapereka kapena kupweteka?  
Mtima uliwonse, moyo uliwonse tidadziwa —  
Ndi dziko lomwe timasiya tikachoka.

🌍 Tikachoka — adzakhuta,  
Ndi chiyembekezo chathu m'maso awo.  
Moyo uliwonse timathandiza kukhala —  
Ndi tsogolo tikachoka.

👉 (Final Choir Chant)  
Ndife imodzi… ndife imodzi…

[Outro – Whisper + Piano Fade]  
Tili pano…  
Kuti tipitirize kuthandiza…
