[Verse 1] Reuters drops it quiet, a slow-burning alarm, Washington's pulling diplomats, clearing the farm, Houthi strikes keep landing closer than before, Embassy staff and families walking out the door, NBC confirms it, troops are moving too, France 24 says the order's cutting clean through, Not a drill, just a careful retreat, Suitcases stacked on a desert street. [Chorus] Это новости — слушай со мной (This is the news, listen close with me) Двадцать второе, октябрь, домой (Twenty-second, October, heading home) Houthi tension rattling the edge of the sky, Просто новости — don't ask why. [Verse 2] Al Jazeera traces the thread way back, World War One runways, same old military track, British jets still circling over Saudi sand, A century-long bond, flying hand in hand, History echoes while the tension climbs, Same alliance dressed in modern times, Old friends patrol the very same air, New Houthi shadows, old loyalty there. [Verse 3] Global News hears booms in the capital tonight, Conflict intensifying, cameras catch the light, But EnergyNow's got a calmer line to tell, Crude exports climbing, Saudi barrels sell, Five-month high in August, tankers in a row, Money keeps rolling even when the sirens blow, War on one channel, oil charts on the next, Two truths running parallel, context over text. [Chorus] Это новости — слушай со мной Двадцать второе, октябрь, домой Houthi tension rattling the edge of the sky, Просто новости — don't ask why. [Verse 4] Over in Seoul, the Asian Cup's at stake, JoongAng Daily says the plans could break, Saudi sports ambitions tangled in the strife, Stadium dreams pausing while the region holds its breath, Even football feels the shake of the sand, Global headlines tangled, hand in hand, A strike in Riyadh, a worry overseas, One region's tremor travels on the breeze. [Verse 5] Analysts whisper of a wider regional chess game, Saudi and Houthi factions trading blame, Diplomatic cables fly from Riyadh to DC, Embassies packing while markets watch closely, Satellite images show convoys on the move, Pentagon briefings struggling to prove, Caution in the air, patience wearing thin, Everyone's waiting to see who will win. [Bridge] Нефть и дипломаты, football и тревога (Oil and diplomats, football and worry) Everything's stitched beneath one Gulf sky, Watch the wires, don't just scroll by, Просто новости — this is how it flows. [Outro] October twenty-second, write it down, hold the date, Diplomats departing, tankers running late, Домой, домой, that's the diplomats' sway, Catch the next update, another news-soaked day. [Chorus] Это новости — слушай со мной Двадцать второе, октябрь, домой Houthi tension rattling the edge of the sky, Просто новости — don't ask why.
