Zayed visited her..and increased her beauty

                     He smiled at the reality of his presence and the imagination

He saw his dream in our great achievement

                     He saw his soul in his soul, and he is still alive

The spirit of Zayed resides in every soul

                     In our hope and ambition

His legacy remains..and he can't go

                     In our hearts is the anchorage of the mountains

Expo in Dubai is a country proud of

                     Her people with love and shams are serious

Zayed visited her..and decorated her..and increased

                     Like Cloud Gad Palma and Shadows

Dar Zayed lofty destiny.. and shrine

                     Bringing the world together with love and respect

Zayed's legacy of coexistence.. for peace

                      With our coexistence.. and his approach is still
