Way back in time was a nation sublime

For they had what it takes to lead a good life

Foemen belieed it's because of some secrets

They brought the fight and it never ended

Hush, don't 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, don't 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 we're trying hard

To reach your paradigm

We say no

To the ultra-extreme

No

To the killers of dreams

No

No!

Children, children have no fear

Soon we all will disappear

Children, children don't you cry

Make no sound or we will die

Once there was a land midst of the chaos

Floating like and island in old blood

People lived in peace, there was no hunger

Though they had no slaves, beleieve it or not

Once there was a nation without soldiers

Never brought a war to the 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
