Live my country, that the unity of ourֲ Emiratesֲ has lived

May you live for a nation

Whose religion isֲ Islamֲ and guide is theֲ Qur’an

I made you fortified by the name ofֲ Allah, my homeland

My country, My country, My country, My country

May God protect you from the evil through time

We have sworn to build and work

The symbol of Arabism

We all sacrifice for you, we supply you with our blood

We sacrifice for you with our souls O homeland

United Arab Emirates Government Type: federation with specified powers delegated to the UAE federal government and other powers reserved to member emirates.

 

Federal (Federation) is a form of government in which sovereign power is formally divided – usually by means of a constitution – between a central authority and a number of constituent regions (states, colonies, or provinces) so that each region retains some management of its internal affairs; differs from a confederacy in that the central government exerts influence directly upon both individuals as well as upon the regional units.ֲ
