Legend has it there is a bald wizard
Who rules a water stream
And who can bait a snake or a lizard
He sees his aim in a prophetic dream
And turns away every sand blizzard
I heard he also manages a famous team...
The wizard and his team have a huge history
Which other people can’t rewrite
This team is shrouded in mystery
Maybe they are planning a space flight
Or gonna brew a magic potion to heal any injury
Someone said they have some cups with a glowing light
And a fountain where they celebrate another victory
And that during every starry night
We can see them wearing white
And making their witchery
Sounds fantastic,
But this team has no tactic
The wizard prefers to use some black magic
So after looking at this absence of any logic
Every tactical analyst will become a true pessimist
And every reporter will start to panic
Maybe it’s quite tragic
But it’s all the fault of this team’s magic
Lately, there was a magic night
The magic turned from black to white
And the team played its best fight
The wizard made it all alright
A rock is nothing against his word
That’s why his players rock the world
That’s why this team will always grab the gold
At the break of dawn, we heard their choral yell:
“La Decimotercera!”
It’s a forbidden magic spell
Which inaugurates their greatest era
Is this the best team ever? Time will tell.
The plans of the bald wizard are always very clever
So this story will definitely end up well
Last night the wizard was alone
He thought,
“I’ve achieved my aim,
But this team won’t ever be the same.
It’s time for me to move away,
Or else this team will lose in every game.”
The wizard packed his things and left a message on the phone
And then he disappeared with a storm
A new day has come
The players woke up and looked around:
“Where’s our manager?”
They found his book, his scarf, his crown
And a new note in the messenger
It said: “You’ve never let me down,
But now I’m just a traveller.
See you around,
My dear champions.”
Zidane is forever our magician
So there’s no need to worry
But we are sad about his decision
And we thank him for every single trophy
For the victories in every competition
And for those days of the true glory
We always admire his intuition
Good luck to him on his new journey
But this is not the end of our story
This story is a magic game
I’m sure,
This story will begin again
