Way back in time was a nation sublime For they had what it takes to lead a good life Foemen believed its because of some secrets They brought the fight and it never ended Hush, dont cry Deep in the night come the raiders Shiver and pray Petra will fall to the Great Oh Nabataea You came so far Now gone you are Oh Nabataea You morning star Now so afar Nabataea People desire and people admire Some always try to reign with fire So are the seals, hence the old Nabateans Have disappeared under the wire Hush, dont cry Deep in the night come the raiders Shiver and pray Petra will fall to the Great Oh Nabataea You came so far Now gone you are Oh Nabataea You morning star Now so afar Nabataea Petra, you were a shining star Unique in your time Petra, 2000 years on we still Suffer the same crimes Petra, today were trying hard To reach your paradigm We say no To the ultraextreme No To the killers of dreams No No! Children, children have no fear Soon we all will disappear Children, children dont you cry Make no sound or we will die Once there was a land midst of the chaos Floating like an island in old blood People lived in peace, there was no hunger Though they had no slaves, believe it or not Once there was a nation without soldiers Never brought a war to other lands They lived without king or queen or ruler Once there was the first democracy Oh Nabataea You came so far Now gone you are Oh Nabataea You morning star Now so afar Oh Nabataea Oh Nabataea
