No spotlight needed—I shine on my own terms - Humaira Arshad
Rooted in Fellowship
(Verse 1)
I stand alone by the old oak’s side,
A single soul with a heart so wide.
Her branches reach, they whisper to me,
In nature’s arms, I’m never free.
The wind sings soft through leaves so green,
A voice that tells what I’ve always seen—
A soul may shine, a solitary flame,
But fellowship calls me by name.
(Chorus)
Oh, I need the roots, the hands, the song,
In fellowship’s embrace, I grow strong.
Like the tree beside me, tall and true,
A single soul needs others too.
(Verse 2)
The earth holds firm where her roots entwine,
A network deep, a lifeline divine.
I lean on her bark, I feel the ground,
In solitude, a silent sound.
The birds take flight, they return to nest,
Nature teaches what I love best—
To stand alone, yet share the air,
With fellows close, I’m rooted there.
(Chorus)
Oh, I need the roots, the hands, the song,
In fellowship’s embrace, I grow strong.
Like the tree beside me, tall and true,
A single soul needs others too.
(Bridge)
The sun alone can’t make her grow,
She needs the rain, the breeze to know.
So I, a soul, with light to give,
Find life in how we learn to live.
By her sturdy side, I see it clear,
Fellowship is nature’s sphere.
(Chorus)
Oh, I need the roots, the hands, the song,
In fellowship’s embrace, I grow strong.
Like the tree beside me, tall and true,
A single soul needs others too.
(Outro)
So I stand with her, my silent friend,
A single soul where roots extend.
In nature’s call, I find my place,
Fellowship shines on every face.
Explanation of the Song
Theme of Fellowship: The song highlights how a single soul, like Humaira Arshad by the tree, benefits from connection—whether to nature (the tree) or to others (human fellowship). It suggests that independence is enriched by interdependence.
Nature’s Role: The tree symbolizes strength and solitude but also relies on its environment (sun, rain, soil), mirroring how the human soul thrives with support from others.
Reflection of the Image: Humaira Arshad’s pose with the tree inspires lyrics about leaning on nature as a companion, reflecting her own balance of individuality and connection.
Tone: The song has a gentle, reflective melody with an uplifting chorus, suitable for an acoustic or folk arrangement, evoking the peace of nature and the warmth of fellowship.
This song celebrates the idea that a single soul, while radiant on its own, finds deeper growth and meaning through the natural bonds of fellowship, just as the tree thrives within its ecosystem.
