[Verse 1]
There's a mind like open sky that never stops its turning,
Two voices in one chest, both curious and discerning,
She reads a room before she's crossed the threshold of the door,
Sees what people hide beneath, then quietly wants more,
The warmth she holds for family runs deeper than she shows,
A whole world lives inside the home that only silence knows

[PreChorus]
But the fire underneath her calm has always burned this way,
A flash of instinct, quick as light, that moves before the day

[Chorus]
Mariël, you are the question and the answer all at once,
The steady hand, the restless heart, the wisdom and the want,
You carry more than anyone could ever hope to see,
Mariël, the stars wrote you with breathtaking complexity

[Verse 2]
She loves like it's a conversation, curious and bright,
She needs the room to roam a little, still comes home at night,
But love has handed her its weight before she felt prepared,
She built her walls with such precision no one knew she cared,
The ones who couldn't see her worth once left their mark inside,
And she learned to wear composure like a coat of quiet pride

[PreChorus]
Still every scar became a lantern in the dark she chose to face,
And every doubt she overcame turned into something grace

[Chorus]
Mariël, you are the question and the answer all at once,
The steady hand, the restless heart, the wisdom and the want,
You carry more than anyone could ever hope to see,
Mariël, the stars wrote you with breathtaking complexity

[Verse 3]
She moves with that precision that disguises what it costs,
She counts the things undone before she counts the battles fought,
The dreamer and the builder share one body, share one breath,
She finds the meaning hiding in the spaces between steps,
There's something in her meant to rise and offer something true,
A gift the world is waiting for that only she can move

[PreChorus]
So let the mountain rest a moment, let the river find its way,
Everything she's carried brought her perfectly to this day

[Chorus]
Mariël, you are the question and the answer all at once,
The steady hand, the restless heart, the wisdom and the want,
You carry more than anyone could ever hope to see,
Mariël, the stars wrote you with breathtaking complexity

[Bridge]
The cosmos didn't make a mistake the night they wove her light,
Every contradiction was a doorway, not a fight,
She doesn't need to be remade or smoothed into something plain,
The depth that made her different is the depth that holds the flame

[Outro]
You are held by something ancient, something vast and something true,
Every piece of who you are was always meant to be you
