To heal the Black Canyon
A flashback on the Hoover Dam
Turning weird waves into WATTS,
igniting hopes of a nation,
making a dusty valley,
into a soothing greenfield.
It's Engineers who saw the breakthrough,
to bring impossibility to a reality,
like concrete of the Dam,
that teamwork was rock-solid,
was strengthening day by day,
from ironic hands of the workers.
When wicked waves try,
to destroy that bond,
The Dam stands still,
as a proud giant.
The spirit of the souls,
who gave lives with no fear,
to see this in their eyes,
will keep healing the Dam,
with forever blowing wind.
