The footballing world
has lost a star,
A brilliant player - the
best by far.
A Dutchman who was
a genius, and he was
so very skillful,
A fantastic talented
footballer - who was
so very mindful.
He dazzled on the
pitch and flirted with
the ball.
Every game he played
in - he always heard
the call.
He played like magic
and won great applause,
Thank god he was a
footballer - a career he
himself chose.
The footballing world
was fascinated by
his skills he showed,
Playing with flair and
passion - a gift he
was bestowed.
The national team of
Holland - was blessed
with such a player,
Thanks to Johan Cruyff,
he had a brilliant
career.
He could play tricks
with the ball - and he
passed the ball with
flair.
He won a lot of fans -
they came to watch
him play.
Johan Cruyff was
their man - he really
made their day.
There were other
greats of the football
world, they graced
the field together.
Showing off their
talents - but Cruyff
was a little better.
A very proud Dutchman -
and he was a national
hero.
Winning many caps
for Holland - he did
right to flirt an ego!
God Bless you, Johan
Cruyff - you are now
in Heaven’s team.
Playing heavenly
football - it really is
a dream.
A legend of football
is what you are, and
more,
The brilliant Johan
Cruyff - in heaven
you will now score.
