Daughter of the Nile..
She's kissed by the hot sun..
She's as dark as the night...
Like Sultan's daughter's beauty..
her smile is like a twinkling star...
like morning sun happily kissing our lands..
like the wind dancing playing with my dress...

From an immortal happiness of the lands...
from an oriental beat of Oud...
her moves are floats...
her steps are dances...
her dialect is Egyptian..

Like Wild roses petals..
and wings of sea birds..
wild roses, sea birds..
Arabian nights, and nostalgia..

And her tanned lips saying:
I am Egyptian..

like our lands , hot and beautiful...
and eternal night's oriental fragrance..
Egyptian,she is Egyptian...

She's asking you ever forget her?...
you know where she is?...
she's all love ages through centuries...
Eastern stars in her pockets...
the magic carpet on her palms...
and the bitterness of magic in her eyes..

Am the Daughter of the Nile...
am Glory of the Generation...
in Every beauty you shall find me..
in night's moon..
sea waves..
like desert's sun i'm shining...
in this universe book I've been written..
and with all languages I've been praised ..
They wanted me and loved me...
am not an ordinary woman....

Egyptian i am, i am Egyptian..

and my tanned lips saying:
Egyptian i am,i am Egyptian..
Egyptian and proud to be....

Those words i translated and re-written some parts of them, from Magda el Rumi's song "Smaraa", i love this song and feel it so much, hope you like it too....dedicated to all daughters of the Nile:)
