# SUNDRUM *Umuku usuma uleisa* **[INTRO — Distant Drumbeat, Whistled Melody, Handclaps]** *(Boom… boom-boom… clap!)* Mwapulika? Pali umulandu upya ku muulu. Oh-eh, oh-eh! Bamuka bonse! **[CHORUS — Explosive Afro-House Drop]** Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Umuku usuma uleisa! Kondolo, kondolo, leka— Fika pano, lemba ingoma! Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Muzika wa bwino! Chimo chimbi, chimbi chibili, Bonse mu nkondo iyi! Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Pali insoni yonse! **[VERSE 1 — Bouncy Afrobeats, Highlife Guitar]** Umuntu aleimba ku lwindo, Umuntu alefina mu menshi. Mailo chalo chali chele, Nomba chali lumbula. Pali cililo pa menshi Pali nsansa yali kalifya. Pali njira shino shino, Pali vintu vinandi. Nimona amano yapa mbali, Nimona bantu bakumfwana. Inso shonse shali cendeka Leta umulandu wa bwino. **[PRE-CHORUS — Rising Vocal Harmonies]** Nga uli na imfumu, Senda nayo ku bwali. Nga wafwila ne cililo, Leta umbi mu ng'anda. Teti twikale pamo pali, Teti twikale pamo ne cipalo. Nomba lelo twafina pamo— Umwenso, umulandu! **[CHORUS — Full Amapiano Log-Drum Drop]** Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Umuku usuma uleisa! Kondolo, kondolo, leka— Fika pano, lemba ingoma! Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Muzika wa bwino! Chimo chimbi, chimbi chibili, Bonse mu nkondo iyi! Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Pali insoni yonse! **[POST-CHORUS — Percussion-Led Dance Chant]** Boom-boom! Clap! Leta umuselela! Boom-boom! Hey! Fina mu mukuku! Zunguluka, Calo pa calo! SUNDRUM! Pulikeni! **[VERSE 2 — Female Lead, Rolling Bass]** Mama ali kuli bisinesi, Tata ali kuli ici cipya. Umwana ali na ma langi, Akuta umulandu utupya. Umulimi aletema umulimi, Umupanga ali na ici cipya. Umulandu umo ufuma, Ulendo umo ukuya. Kumushi ku mulu, Kumenso ku ng'alaba, Sweefin ikumatako bantu, Ikatula umulandu. Teti umulandu ube wamusuma, Teti ilimo lilimo. Koma nga bantu balikwata, Pali umulandu wa bwino. **[PRE-CHORUS — Crowd Harmonies Build]** Nga uli na imfumu, Senda nayo ku bwali. Nga wafwila ne cililo, Leta umbi mu ng'anda. Teti twikale pamo pali, Teti twikale pamo ne cipalo. Nomba lelo twafina pamo— Umwenso, umulandu! **[CHORUS — Festival Drop]** Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Umuku usuma uleisa! Kondolo, kondolo, leka— Fika pano, lemba ingoma! Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Muzika wa bwino! Chimo chimbi, chimbi chibili, Bonse mu nkondo iyi! Sun, sun, SUNDRUM! Pali insoni yonse! **[BRIDGE — Warm Piano, Layered Choir]** [Verse] Nga usiku waba ububi, Nga ulendo waba utali, Ipulika umutima utuntuka Ukukumbusha ukwenda. Tulefwaya ukwabana bwino, Tulefwaya ukupepa amaka. Na ichalo chaba chikulu, Nga twaba pamo na bonse. *(Piano stops. One drum continues.)* **[DANCE BREAK — Call-and-Response]** Lead: Mwapulika ngoma? Crowd: Boom-boom! Lead: Mwamona ilyo luba? Crowd: Lishaba! Lead: Nani akokola? Crowd: Bonse! Lead: Epo mukwete! *(Bass rises)* Boom-boom! Clap! Twalaleka mukati! Hey-oh! Hey! Shingilila ukutali! Amaboko apaulu, Imibulu panshi! SUNDRUM! Leka ifwile! *(Massive bass drop)* **[FINAL CHORUS — Full Choir, Brass, Percussion]** Luba, luba, SUNDRUM! Mumfwa umulandu ulela! Imbila, imbila, te imbila— Kuno fye, tulefwaya! Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Ebisuma bikale! Kalibu, kalibu, Bonse mu mbunga! Luba, luba, SUNDRUM! Mumfwa umulandu ulela! **[OUTRO — Guitar, Whistle, Fading Crowd Vocals]** Oh-eh, oh-eh! Icelo cimbi, Ukupela umulandu. Imipashi shimo Mu usiku. Sweefin—ukubombesha bantu, Ukupanga umusebanya. Luba, luba, SUNDRUM! Mumfwa umulandu ulela! *(Boom-boom… clap!)*
