Electric Heartbeat

(Verse 1) In Surabaya’s streets, courage took flight, A city ablaze, hearts burning bright. Against British forces, they stood their ground, Heroes of Surabaya, their valor unbound. (Chorus) Surabaya, city of fierce might, Where freedom’s flame burned through the night. Bullets and bayonets clashed in the fray, Patriots rising, their voices would sway. (Verse 2) Tanjung Perak echoed with battle cries, As Mahratta and Rajput faced the skies. A.W.S. Mallaby led the foreign tide, But Surabaya’s spirit could not be denied. (Chorus) Surabaya, city of fierce might, Where freedom’s flame burned through the night. Bullets and bayonets clashed in the fray, Patriots rising, their voices would sway. (Bridge) Red and white flags fluttered high, Defiance etched in every eye. Twenty thousand souls, their sacrifice profound, For independence, they fought on hallowed ground. (Chorus) Surabaya, city of fierce might, Where freedom’s flame burned through the night. Bullets and bayonets clashed in the fray, Patriots rising, their voices would sway. (Outro) So let us remember, on this sacred day, The heroes of Surabaya, their courage on display. In history’s annals, their legacy remains, Surabaya, forever etched in freedom’s veins.
