Zayed

There was a dream that seemed to be impossible
There was a man, determined to succeed
Son of the desert, good and true, invincible
You were the one to make our lives complete
With a vision of brotherhood of a leader and a king
You were the one, the wind beneath our wings
For all the visions you believed in
For the goals you have achieved
And for the peaceful ways you chose

The country flourished like a rose
For all the good things you did start
We want to thank you from our hearts
Your name will echo in our heads
A name we never will forget Zayed

There was a plan, that made you unforgettable
There was an aim, humble and true
You did understand your people and your history
Taking the chance, to do what´s right and good
With the sharp view of a bird of prey and a precious heart of gold
You were the one to make our wings unfold
For all the visions you believed in

For the goals you have achieved
And for the peaceful ways you chose
The country flourished like a rose
And as your light still shines upon us
We see a bright and new day dawn
The circle starts where it began
Your son will rule with peaceful hands Zayed

Like a falcon you have seen that far
Education´s the key to success
You did understand it right from the start
Caring for the weak and for the poorest
Our idol you´ll always be
Living forever in our hearts
For all the visions
