To begin this series, what about a part of an impressive poem “In Egypt’s name”?
It’s an epic work narrating the history of Egypt, from the pharaonic era till present,
written by the great poet Salah Jaheen..
"History may say what it wishes in Egypt name
Egypt, for me, is the most beloved and most beautiful of things.
I love her when she owns the earth, east and west.
And I love her when she is down, wounded in a battle.
I love her fiercely, gently and with modesty.
I hate her and curse her with the passion of the lovesick.
…….
My veins pulsating with a thousand tunes and rhythms.
In Egypt's name."
