Lyrics
[Intro] Oh, in the heart of Europe, a country so fine, Belgium stands proud, with a history that shines. [Verse 1] From the Ardennes hills to the North Sea's strand, Belgium’s rich tapestry, crafted by hand. Brussels, the capital, where cultures unite, Eurocratic heart, glowing city of light. [Pre-Chorus] With languages three, it's a land of delight, French, Dutch, and German, weaving day and night. [Chorus] Oh, Belgium, oh, Belgium, land of might and magic, With your chocolate so sweet and your waffles fantastic. From diamond trades in Antwerp’s embrace, To medieval towns with a charming grace. [Verse 2] In Flanders’ fields, where poppies grow, Echoes of history, stories in flow. Ghent and Bruges, with canals so grand, Reflecting the past across the land. [Chorus] Oh, Belgium, oh, Belgium, land of might and magic, With your chocolate so sweet and your waffles fantastic. From diamond trades in Antwerp’s embrace, To medieval towns with a charming grace. [Bridge] Royal palaces and comic art, Beer that captures the brewmaster's heart. Tintin and Magritte, surreal and bright, Inspiring the world, with boundless flight. [Final Chorus] Oh, Belgium, oh, Belgium, land of might and magic, With your chocolate so sweet and your waffles fantastic. From diamond trades in Antwerp’s embrace, To medieval towns with a charming grace. [Outro] Oh, Belgium, oh, Belgium, a blend so unique, In every corner, a story to seek.
