# ZAMBOYA *Fela Kasa. Jikile. Tanga Masi.* **[INTRO — Handclaps, Shakers, Playful Female Vocal]** *(Clap-clap! Boom!)* Muntu yoleka fiyanga! Tuleka muzi! Oh-eh-oh! Ah-ya-ya! Nkhondo yandi, Nkhondo yako. Bantu bonse balyokela? ZAMBOYA! **[CHORUS — EXPLOSIVE AFRO-HOUSE DROP]** Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela kasa, chalo chikutumina! Hey-ya-ya! Hey-ya-yo! Tuleka muzi, tuchikala! Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela chalo chonse chijikile! Nkhondo! Nkhondo! Clap! Clap! ZAMBOYA! Tuleke fiyanga! **[VERSE 1 — BOUNCY AFROBEATS, HIGHLIFE GUITAR]** Pashili pa makasa, Kukonkanya kwa sun. Muntu akaleka mulimo, Muntu akafumya mpanga. Kale kwali na mabala, Bamwe balipangila so. Ila lelo tulesha fimo Na mutima pa fimo fimo. Pali pantu pakali na fya, Kuli chibumba chikalangila. Pali chalo chikalanga, Kuli nyimbo yakuletela. Sikila fyo fiyangala, Sikila fyo fyo fya. Ila fyo fya fya fya Na fya fya fya fya. **[PRE-CHORUS — RISING FEMALE HARMONIES]** Ulelandile bassline ikalile? Ulelandile imbombo ikapanga? Tuleka mulimo ku muntu, Tuleka fya bupuba. Bamwandi bonse balandila, Bamwandi bonse balya fya. Pali pantu pakali na fya, Kuli chibumba chikalangila! **[CHORUS — FULL AMAPIANO LOG-DRUM DROP]** Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela kasa, chalo chikutumina! Hey-ya-ya! Hey-ya-yo! Tuleka muzi, tuchikala! Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela chalo chonse chijikile! Nkhondo! Nkhondo! Clap! Clap! ZAMBOYA! Tuleke fiyanga! **[POST-CHORUS — VIRAL DANCE CHANT]** Zam! Zam! Hey! Hey! Bo! Bo! Sway! Sway! Ya! Ya! Turn around! ZAMBOYA! Tuleka fiyanga! **[VERSE 2 — FEMALE LEAD, ROLLING BASS]** Kuli mama na mulimo, Kuli tata na chalo. Kuli mpanga akalima, Kuli muntu akakola. Kuli mwana akulanda, Kuli mutengesi akufyanga. Bamwandi bonse balandila, Bamwandi bonse balya fya. Kuta ku chalo ku chalo, Kuta ku makasa ku nyanja, Sweefin ikalanga abantu, Ila ikalanga fya fya. Ila abantu balyokela Kuli fimo, fya fya, Fimo fya fya fya fya Na chalo chikalangila. **[PRE-CHORUS — CHOIR BUILDS]** Ulelandile bassline ikalile? Ulelandile imbombo ikapanga? Tuleka mulimo ku muntu, Tuleka fya bupuba. Bamwandi bonse balandila, Bamwandi bonse balya fya. Pali pantu pakali na fya, Kuli chibumba chikalangila! **[CHORUS — FESTIVAL DANCE DROP]** Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela kasa, chalo chikutumina! Hey-ya-ya! Hey-ya-yo! Tuleka muzi, tuchikala! Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Fela chalo chonse chijikile! Nkhondo! Nkhondo! Clap! Clap! ZAMBOYA! Tuleke fiyanga! **[BRIDGE — EMOTIONAL PIANO, CHILDREN'S CHOIR]** If you’ve ever felt alone, If you’ve ever been outside, May you find a welcoming door, And a friend right by your side. There’s a world with many pathways, There’s a world with many dreams. And the future shines with promise, When we all join in the schemes. *(Piano fades. Handclaps begin.)* **[DANCE BREAK — CALL AND RESPONSE]** Lead: Who’s got a vision? Crowd: We do! We do! Lead: Who can take the leap? Crowd: Me too! Me too! Lead: Who will join the groove? Crowd: Everybody! Lead: Then show me how you move! *(Percussion builds.)* Zam! Zam! Step! Step! Bo! Bo! Clap! Clap! Ya! Ya! Turn around! ZAMBOYA! Feel that sound! *(MASSIVE AMAPIANO BASS DROP)* **[INSTRUMENTAL DANCE BREAK — LOG DRUMS, HIGHLIFE GUITAR, FESTIVAL BRASS]** Oh-eh-oh! Ah-ya-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! *(Crowd chants over the groove.)* **[FINAL CHORUS — FULL FESTIVAL CHOIR]** Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Come alive, the world is calling! Hey-ya-ya! Hey-ya-yo! Feel the rhythm, keep it rolling! Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Let the whole wide world come dancing! Step! Step! Clap! Clap! ZAMBOYA! Bring that feeling back! **[OUTRO — WARM HIGHLIFE GUITAR, FADING CHOIR]** One step for me, One step for you. A little more hope In the things we do. Sweefin brings new ways to connect, To create, exchange, and grow. Zam-bo-ya! Zam-bo-ya! Come alive. Move together. Make tomorrow. ZAMBOYA! *(Final celebratory drum hit.)*
