"عيون الأمة علينا. نحن القائمون على موارده. سوف نتذكر على الرغم من أنفسنا."
Simplified meaning
People across the country are watching what we do closely. We are in charge of taking care of important things for everyone. Even if we don't intend to stand out, our actions will be noticed and remembered. For example, imagine if a group of people is chosen to protect a forest. Everyone is watching to see how they look after it because the forest is valuable to everyone. If they do a good job, people will be grateful and remember their hard work. If they do a poor job, people will remember that too. So, it’s important to be responsible and do your best, knowing your actions will have a lasting impact.
