The title, which translates to "Bedouins Built a Nation," celebrates the UAE's deep-rooted heritage and the enduring love and pride for the homeland. The poem emphasizes the steadfast loyalty to the nation's leadership, which has steered the Emirates toward remarkable achievements.

Blending Bedouin authenticity with the progress of modern civilization, the song symbolizes the UAE’s journey, guided by its vision for advancement. Much like the Pleiades star, which has long illuminated the paths of ancestors, it remains a guiding force, witnessing the nation's achievements and innovations.
Written by poet Ali Al-Khawar, composed by music director Mohammed Al-Ahmad, and performed by the Emirates Choir, the song is a proud anthem for the nation.
