What, what's that? That music
Jafar, you gotta come see this!
Make way, for Prince Ali
Such grace, Prince Ali
Lucky bunch, clear the bazaar
And you're gonna see what you're gonna see
Come clap, cheer the Superstar
Celebrate this big day, bells and drums
Come adore the idol
Prince Ali, His Lordship, Ali Ababoua
On your knees, bow down, be thrilled
Don't panic, let's calm down
Shout long live Ali, Salaam
Come see Arabia's greatest show
Prince Ali, I know nobody stronger than him
Who lifts you from Abu Dhabi, arms outstretched
He beat an army alone with his sword
The enemies' terror, that's Prince Ali
He's got one hundred three camels and she-camels
Caravans of peacocks, ten per van
Gorillas they shelter with their wings
This zoo's a souk, by the goat's horn
It's one awesome menagerie
Prince Ali, yes it's really him, Ali Ababoua
What a body, it's magnificent, he's charming
The balcony's packed
Me, I've got a veil on my chin
And everybody swoons for Prince Ali
Come see his two hundred Persian monkeys
It costs, and yet it's free
Servants and slaves work for him
He's the greatest, we obey him
And each would give their life
For Ali long live Ali
Prince Ali, yes it's really him, Ali Ababoua
He's here for your pretty daughter
That's why, in procession
This lover lays siege to you
With thirty elephants acting as acrobats
Bears and then lions, to the bugle sound
His forty fakirs, his brigade of chefs
His birds that scream
Make way for Prince Ali!
Splendid! Absolutely marvelous!

SONG MEANING

Trumpets blare, drums roll, and the streets burst into color—that is the electrifying scene Australian singer Aladdin paints in “Prince Ali.” The song is a jubilant parade announcing the arrival of a seemingly unbeatable hero: Prince Ali Ababoua. Crowds gasp at his legendary strength, his glittering riches, and a mind-boggling menagerie that stretches from 103 camels to acrobatic elephants. Every line piles on fresh exaggeration, inviting listeners to join the cheering masses who believe this larger-than-life newcomer can conquer armies, woo a princess, and transform the entire kingdom into a party.

Beneath the fireworks of horns and hyperbole hides a playful message about image and perception. The tune reminds us that in a world dazzled by spectacle, people are quick to kneel—sometimes literally—before wealth, power, and showmanship. Yet those who know the story understand that “Prince Ali” is really humble Aladdin in disguise, proving that bold confidence and a touch of magic can open doors even the poorest street dweller never dreamed of. It is a celebration of reinvention, cleverly wrapped in catchy melodies and sparkling wordplay.
