An icon passes on
To us he belonged
Stood out in the throng
Made our economy strong
Stood in prayer for long
And I was there along
I will surely sing along
A hearty Famara song:
We will surely miss you
our dear Star
For yours is a journey going far
Away from our eyes yet
close to our heart
We shall remember and follow your star
The Famara I knew was bold
Firm he was, yet not cold
The truth he knew was always told
He was not one to fold
In the face of tests
no matter the toll
He was warm to one and all
Always answering the national call
Now he answered the ultimate call
In tears I pray for his gentle soul
To be treated with mercy by the Almighty Soul
