가사
Verse 1:
In the land of Ayetoro, where joy once freely flowed,
"Happy City" they named it, now the waves have overthrown.
Timber ruins in the water, homes lost to the deep,
We pray every Sunday, but the sea, it never sleeps.
Chorus:
Oh Ayetoro, your tears mix with the tide,
Land of our fathers, where hope and sorrow collide.
We stand on shattered shores, hearts heavy with the past,
Believing in tomorrow, though the future fades so fast.
Verse 2:
Eight million dreams washed away, in the ocean's cold embrace,
Heritage and history, now lost in this cruel race.
From a city of utopia, to a place of despair,
Our roots deep in the soil, yet the land is no longer there.
Chorus:
Oh Ayetoro, your tears mix with the tide,
Land of our fathers, where hope and sorrow collide.
We stand on shattered shores, hearts heavy with the past,
Believing in tomorrow, though the future fades so fast.
Bridge:
Promises made, yet actions fall short,
We've seen the signs, but no one to report.
Mangroves gone, oil drills in the night,
Still, we hold on, to the remnants of light.
Chorus:
Oh Ayetoro, your tears mix with the tide,
Land of our fathers, where hope and sorrow collide.
We stand on shattered shores, hearts heavy with the past,
Believing in tomorrow, though the future fades so fast.
Outro:
Help will come one day, we hold this belief tight,
In Ayetoro, we'll stand, through the long and endless night.
For in our hearts, this place remains, a beacon of our fight,
Against the rising waters, we'll defend with all our might.
Hook:
Ayetoro, Ayetoro, our pride, our hope, our sorrow.
Ayetoro, Ayetoro, we'll rise up tomorrow.
Ayetoro, Ayetoro, our pride, our hope, our sorrow.
Ayetoro, Ayetoro, we'll rise up tomorrow.
Outro (Reprise):
In Ayetoro, we'll rise, with strength in every stride,
With hearts united, we'll turn the tide.
Ayetoro, Ayetoro, forever in our song,
Together we'll stand, forever strong.
