Malta

[Intro] Oh, Malta in the middle of the sea, An archipelago of history and glee. [Verse 1] Set in the Mediterranean blue, Three islands make up this view: Malta, Gozo, and tiny Comino, Where ancient winds and pasts renew. [Pre-Chorus] In Valletta, the capital we stand, Built by the Knights' powerful hand, Baroque beauty on every street, Where the past and present meet. [Chorus] Malta, oh Malta, tales in your waves, From Phoenicians to the bright crusades. Land of courage, seas that weave, In your heart, cultures never leave. [Verse 2] Caravaggio's brush once made its mark, In St. John's Co-Cathedral, art so stark. Cannons that guarded the Grand Harbour's light, Echoing freedom in the quiet night. [Chorus] Malta, oh Malta, tales in your waves, From Romans to the brave knights' days. Land of courage, seas that weave, In your heart, languages never leave. [Bridge] Carnival's colors streak the sky, Pastizzi and kinnie, flavors that fly. The warmth of il-Malti in every sound, In L-Imnarja, traditions are found. [Final Chorus] Malta, oh Malta, tales in your waves, From British rule to independence's blaze. Land of courage, seas that weave, In your heart, harmony does cleave. [Outro] With a spirit that dances through time, Malta, your story forever will rhyme, Oh, Malta in the middle of the sea, An archipelago of history and glee.
