Druk Gyalpo

The Druk Gyalpo (Dzongkha: འབྲུག་རྒྱལ་པོ་; Wylie: 'brug rgyal-po; "Dragon King") is the head of state of Bhutan. He is also known in English as the King of Bhutan. Bhutan, in the local Dzongkha language, is known as Dryukyul which translates as "The Land of Dragons". Thus, while Kings of Bhutan are known as Druk Gyalpo ("Dragon King"), the Bhutanese people call themselves the Drukpa, meaning "Dragon people".

The current ruler of Bhutan is Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, the 5th Druk Gyalpo. He wears the Raven Crown which is the official crown worn by the kings of Bhutan. He is correctly styled "Mi'wang 'Ngada Rimboche" ("His Majesty") and addressed "'Ngada Rimboche" ("Your Majesty").

King Jigme Khesar is the second youngest reigning monarch in the world. He ascended the throne in November 2008 after his father, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, abdicated the throne in his favor.

Take your border, push it back,
Well I didn`t see the edge or see your smile crack,
The future would be beautiful without you,
The words you whisper in my ear they all revolve around you?
Chorus
Sky high show me sky high,
catch a glimpse we`re together in the fading light,
fly so high that forever your out of sight,
feed the hunger cos you feel that it`s right now
Verse 2
Turn me round I`m looking thru your eyes,
well I`d walk the coal`s to see your sunrise,
the future would be lonelier without you,
the sounds I see about me now they all revolve around you..
Chorus
Sky high show me sky high,
catch a glimpse we`re together in the fading light,
fly so high that forever your out of sight,
