Analysis of Caire o !
The beauty of a People
Who rise up and hope!
The beauty of a People
Breaking their chaines and becoming free!
The beauty of a People
A forest of deeply-rooted hearts
Who, under Horus' lively eye,
Come and re-bloom freedom.
Blow Jasmine, blow Hibiscus
The beauty of a liberating wind
Which will blow upon ripened wheat
And will mock your borders.
The beauty of a wind which inaugurates
A new era of Humanity.
The beauty of a freed people.
