It is official as of today: it's end of Egypt as we've known her in our own lifetime. We, the living are witness to history and as such will continue to watch as the country gets its new bearings.
As usual, poets are the visionaries. I've posted examples from ancient to contemporary times.
RISE UP AND SALUTE THE SUN
Suzy Kassem
RISE UP!
Rise up!
EVERYONE!
Rise up and salute the sun!
Rise up and
Synergize as
ONE.
And division there shall be none.
Yes!
And division there shall be none.
Wise up.
Wise up and salute the sun!
So what is right will always be won -
So what is wrong will be never be
done.
Yes,
So what is wrong will never be done.
So justice will always be won.
Rise up!
Wise up and salute the sun!
Because what is
Turning
Can never
Be undone,
And what is churning
Has already been spun.
Yes,
The lies are distorting the sum.
And they're quickly earning
The minds of our young.
Rise Up!
Wise up and
Vibrate knowledge and peace
Throughout the streets -
And UNIVERSAL KINGDOM!
Spread light to replace all
The hatred
And ignorance in the world -
With Truth,
And amplified
WISDOM!
Rise up!
Rise up and salute the sun.
Get wise and
Join lights as ONE.
The journey has just begun.
Yes,
The
REVOLUTION
has just begun.
So wise up!
Wise up and free all your minds.
Rise up and stand up
For all
Mankind!
Put on your gold crowns,
And rise and SHINE!
Because the sun symbolizes
What's lit inside.
Illumination
Frees us and gives
Us eyes.
It's what heals us and gives us life.
It's also the symbol of the most high --
-- THE LIGHT,
The light
In all its might!
RISE UP.
Rise up and salute the sun!
Wise up because the hour
HAS COME
And they've already sent us
More than one drum!
Hurry up!
Hurry
Before the last chime
is STRUCK!
RISE UP
Before the TIME IS UP!
Rise up before they kill our dove!
Wise up and
Fight with
LIGHT and LOVE!
RISE UP!
Rise up EVERYONE.
Rise up and salute the sun.
Rise up and salute the sun!
BELOVED COUNTRY
Over three thousand years ago an Egyptian once wrote;
Its fields are full of good things and it has provision for every day
Its granaries overflow, they reach the sky.
Its ponds are full of fishes and its lakes of birds.
Its fields are green with grass and its banks bear dates.
He who lives there is happy,
And the poor man is like the great elsewhere.
What more could be said!
