Poetry About the Homeland
- As Rifa’a Al-Tahtawi eloquently states:
Oh friend, the love of the homeland
is an adornment for the wise.
The affection for homelands
is one of the branches of faith,
in the noblest of religions
it is a verse every believer knows.
Oh friend, the love of the homeland
is an adornment for the wise.
The fall of leaders
brings delight to hearts.
It sweeps away every sorrow
from us and every free spirit.
And Egypt, most glorious of births
for us and noblest of lineages,
a haven for the spirit and body.
We are bound to it, firm of resolve; it is
our talisman, whether in secrecy or openly.
Egypt has strong hands
that lift the land, and its pride calls,
“What else is glory but this?”
The universe draws its light from Egypt
and none can hold it back.
Its glory lies not hidden
except among the cowardly.
Pride that is steeped in history
from its leaders is esteemed,
and flowers of glory are scattered
from which intellects glean.
A place of bliss and abundance,
its authority is firm and binding
for all cities;
it is gentle to the near,
sweet for distant friends;
it gazes into the distance,
aiming sharp arrows from the eyes.
Being long-lasting is fruitful,
for guidance is affectionate.
No place is devoid of gratitude
except where weakness flourished.
The force of Cairo stands apart
showing itself against the rest.
Flourishing with grandeur,
it is honored in thought and spirit.
Spacious homes invite circulation
and wishes bloom profusely.
It holds answers to happiness,
and is the most cherished homeland.
Its knowledge is profound,
and the wisdom of the nation is delicate;
its symbols are subtle,
delighting the people of thought.
Do you not observe the people,
rising to great heights?
They are sovereigns and supporters,
gaining the beauty of time.
The children of this land are men,
who are unwavering and bold,
untouched by fear
or intimidated by peril.
In the dark of night, their taste is keen,
and their destiny is exalted,
their mission is unheard,
but they are cherished in urbanity.
And their soldiers are valiant and firm,
with hearts like iron,
and their foes are doomed
as they are covered in shrouds.
Every noble youth,
loves the valley of the Nile;
how many reside therein?
He declares, “Egypt is my homeland,”
and as you seek happiness,
O Sa’ad, be aware
that Egypt boasts proud fame
and is known amongst the celestial.
Thus still, tongues rejoice
in the remembrance of the generous one,
Lord of high lineage
from ancestors grand and noble;
to Egypt, let the legacy return
that the Most High sustains,
a noble prince of pride,
by the grace of faith and justice.
