[00:00.60]From Ming’s bold ports the sails were raised
[00:09.24]With treasure ships the oceans praised
[00:16.80]Zheng He went forth with peace not war—
[00:24.08]To offer trade from distant shore
[00:31.44]Through spice-wind lanes and island suns
[00:38.13]He showed how greatness gently runs
[00:45.35]No sword was drawn no land was claimed—
[00:52.89]But friendships formed where pride was tamed
[00:59.36]His journey spoke of who we are—
[01:06.59]Not just the wave but guiding star
[01:14.25]And in the East that silence fleet—
[01:21.39]Still whispers where all futures meet
