I am Egypt, the land of history
I am Egypt, I am no mystery
I watch the view
The glistening sea,
The blazing sun stares back at me
The golden pyramids, built so high
Match the constellations in the sky
The myths and legends lie inside,
the heart of Egypt it will not die
The curse of the mummies
Who are yet to awake
Are crawling with scorpions
And poisonous snakes.
I’m mesmerized by the river Nile,
The longest river it runs for miles
I remember Moses float in that river
Not knowing soon who he would deliver
Cleopatra oh mighty queen,
Your foreign lover that I have seen
You had no hair you were bald,
You wore a wig when Anthony called
Ramses ruled the old ancient kingdom.
He lived for long and bared many children.
He had so many elegant wives,
Not one, not three, not four, not even five
The glittery sand of the Sahara desert,
Was there in the past and now in the present
I made this all come alive
I hope forever it will survive.
