Sands of Battle

(Verse 1) (Acoustic guitar with a hint of oud) Born in a desert land, sands as far as the eye can see Vivi, princess of Alabasta, with a heart wild and free Dreamed of dancing with the nomads, under a moonlit sky But duty called, a heavy crown, a tear she couldn't deny (Chorus) (Acoustic guitar with a prominent oud melody) Alabasta, her love so deep, for her people, her land so vast But a pirate's shadow loomed ahead, a future turning fast Whispers of war, a kingdom's plight, Vivi knew what she had to do Fight for her home, with all her might, a queen with a heart so true (Verse 2) (Harmonica joins the melody) Disguised as Miss Wednesday, she set out on a quest unknown To find a cure, to stop the war, to claim her kingdom's throne Across the Grand Line, a pirate crew, with a captain by her side Luffy, the dreamer, with a spirit wide, became her loyal guide (Chorus) (Acoustic guitar with a more driving oud rhythm) Alabasta, her love so deep, for her people, her land so vast But battles raged, a city burned, hope fading ever fast Vivi's pleas, tears falling free, for peace amidst the fray A queen's love for her land to see, a brighter dawning day (Bridge) (Acoustic guitar slows, only oud plays a melancholic tune) Betrayal's sting, a father's fall, Vivi's heart threatened to break But Luffy's promise, a rallying call, for Alabasta's sake With tears and courage, she rose again, her voice a beacon bright United her people, women and men, to push back the endless night (Chorus) (Acoustic guitar and oud in a powerful duet) Alabasta, her love so deep, for her people, her land so vast The war subsided, peace reclaimed, a future built to last Vivi, the princess, a hero's heart, her love forever true Alabasta healed, a brand new start, under skies of endless blue
