In memory of the lost ones,
In the sanctuary of beats and lights,
Where freedom dances away the nights,
We gather to say, we shall not yield,
Our unity stands; it's our protective shield.
Though evil sought to pierce our song,
And paint with sorrow where we belong,
Let it be known, our spirits don't break,
We’ll dance even harder, make no mistake.
For every DJ, every soul, every friend,
For every beginning, for each untimely end,
We link our hearts, resounding in beat,
Defying the odds, we won't accept defeat.
Barkeepers, vendors, the keepers of lore,
Managers, labels, we are so much more,
In the face of dread, we find our grace,
Our love's the rhythm, no terror can erase.
So in the name of joy, let's strengthen the tie,
With music as our alibi,
We reject the drum of war, the clang of strife,
In unity and love, we craft the dance of life.
From darkness, we extract a stronger embrace,
Even when war tries to steal our sacred space,
Yet, our response is clear, through tears and groove,
We will persevere; our unity will prove.
In the alchemy of sorrow, something new we blend,
An unbreakable bond that even death can't end,
A tapestry of unity, woven strand by strand,
In the name of All, together we shall stand.
