The City of Dahuk

Near the northern end 
Of the Tigris river valley
Is the city of dahuk
Next to the boarder of turkey

A city of many fruit orchards
A popular tourist destination
Has a fruit canning plant
The supply the whole nation

With palm tress on both sides
Of the streets in straight  lines
And in this beautiful city dahuk 
Lives a very good friend of mines

The most peaceful city in Iraq
Where the grass are so green
With two chains of mountains
So many histories to be seen

From the clef mountain gully zawita
Bamarny and suara tuga resorts
 Modern casino, in the middle of gardens
Wit a combination of culture and sports

To The happy children playing
In the garden of dream city
To the AMADIYA ANTIQUE CASTLE
A place of so many things to see

There is a girl with great smile
Going to but candy and sweets
She is so kind and friendly
 Bringing joy to all she meets

And all her friends love her
From a round the world
She’s just the kindest person
With a real heart of gold

I have two friends from Iraq
They are beautiful smart and clever
I respect them like my sisters
And hope to be their friend forever

I hope one day to meet them
In the heart of an Iraqi town
We will go and have of ice cream
And talk until the sun goes down

In the city of dahuk
A place of pure magical beauty 
 Lives the most beautiful girl
In the world to me
