Excerpts from a poem by Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid on the marriage of his sons

“UAE nights are full 
of joy and melodies
Its skies coloured in vibrant hues
The nation looks radiant in green
A garden bloomed with flowers
The blowing wind 
and the silent desert
Are with the beauty of roses adorned.
Why not? For the UAE is celebrating 
the wedding of Ahmad, 
Maktoum and Hamdan.
The fragrance of flowers 
fills every corner
Happiness hugs the nation 
in days of delight…
Oh my sons, I spent nights 
caring about you
I raised you as a falcon 
raises its chicks…
Good morals make you 
the knights of nobility
That I have taught you.
Aim high and seek glory
That I have taught you.
Defend your country against injustice
That I have taught you.
I taught you the history of Zayed, 
whose name is glory
Oh my sons, I am full 
of joy and pride…
Today, my efforts continue 
in your marriage
For marriage fulfils faith and regard
I congratulate you with all my heart.
My sons, always treat 
people with respect
This I advise you.
Embrace the grace of 
good people close to you
This I advise you.
My sons, be united always
And be respectful of your wives
Abide by the teachings 
of your ancestors
That’s how life thrives with power.”
