In Memoriam
by Sania Shaarawi
“I’ll wait for you,” she said,
Smiling softly, and walked away
Towards the Nile her God, her Father.
Her palace can be seen there,
Her soul forever glowing
In the golden shining light.
A host of friends surround her,
Their legends will revive her,
The Princess of the Nile.
