merna ibrahim - Egyptian Revolution

In your reign, the ogre of vacancy was strong.
The regime wasn't right, majority was wrong.
The monster of corruption was massive and bad.
The officer, the doctor &all the people suffered from it even the lad.

The injustice's cancer harmed all the society's cells.
You left the people cry, die and from poverty yell.
You made the flower of freedom wilt.
So, anger, misery, and dissatisfaction were built.

You made us live in stagnation and retardation.
No prosperity, no creations only frustration.
Here came our brave youth and made a revolution.
Slogans rose against dictatorship and unfair constitution.

Their great, historic, and peaceful revolution highly suceeded.
They cooperated in cleaning streets&only for Egypt heeded.
Their patriotism & determination clearly appeared.
For democracy, human rights and liberty, they cheered.

Finally, the liberalization and the freedom bells rang.
The pure youth wanted to break every fang.
And the dawn which came after a dark night sprang.
Celebrations began, fireworks set off & songs sang.

Dedicated to: The Egyptian people
RIP all the brave and the faithful martyrs who sacrificed with their souls just to keep this country free and alive...
