Raga Dawn

Morning opens in gold and red

A quiet step, a lifted head

Hearts awaken, colors rise

We gather where the daylight flies

Feet on the earth and fire in the air

Laughter turns the moment bright everywhere

Hands to the sky as the day spins round

Joy in the drum and the dancing ground Dil mera gaaye,

saath chalo

Aaj ka rang hai khul ke bolo

Hold that spark, let it climb

Breath by breath, time meets time

Aa re aa, the night will bloom

One more step and we fill the room Dance in the light,

let the whole world sway

Sing with your heart,

this is our day Boom of the drum and the stars all

spin Round and around,

let the joy rush in Nacho re,

gao re, saath utho

Dil se dilo tak roshni kholo

Every street becomes a river of song Even the shy ones are

singing along Silver and saffron turn in the breeze Rhythm is carried

by voices with ease Chand sa hansa,

dil beqaraar Rangon mein dhadke khula sansaar From a small flame to

a sky on fire We rise and rise,

taking it higher Ha re ha,

hear the call One bright heart can awaken all

Dance in the light,

let the whole world sway

Sing with your heart,

this is our day

Boom of the drum and the stars all spin

Round and around, let the joy rush

in

Nacho re, gao re,

saath utho Dil se dilo

tak roshni kholo

Higher

we go, brighter we gleam Tonight we become the shape of a

dream

Aa re aa, we carry the glow

On and on, let the good times flow
