I am in the mother of the world ( Egypt) !!



!! I am in the mother of the world
( Egypt)
By :
Nabil Mouselhy ( Egypt)
Translated by :
Hassan Hegazy Hassan ( Egypt)

///////////////

Looking around me ….
 Every time I see something   …
 I thank Allah for being  still here,
 Everything is in its place
 The high buildings
The safe streets
Different means of transportation
 The gardens
 The traffic man …
The passers-by …
 The cafes ..
 The cars of sandwiches
 The kids in the suburbs
  My street ...
My neighbors
 My home…
My flat…
My sons …
  The water in the tap …
The river Nile …

When I come into my bedroom,
 I find it clean and tidy...
I see everything in its place  ...
 I see in my day and night :
My family is having dinner with me...
Tears are running out of my eyes...
My daughter asks me :
 "What are these tears for? "
Words come out from my lips …
Trying to be strong ...
She asks me again :
 "Father, what is the matter ?!
Words are running out of my lips …
 S  y   r  I   a  !!...The children
All aspects of life …  
 Life is dying ..
 It is coming to an end!    
Ruin is everywhere!
