موال ربيعي
فتحت شباك الأمل على ارض سمرة معجونة بدم الشهيدولمحت شمس الأصيل مسجونة جوه قفص من سلك وحديدوفجأة بصيت لفوق لقيت أسراب الحمام مليا القريب والبعيدوفرحانة بالوشوش اللي بتبنيها وكأنه مهرجان أو عيدقلت سبحانك يارب قادر تبدل العتيق بالجديدوتصبح مصر عروسه زمانها شباب من غيرتجاعيد حسين بيكار

"I opened a window for hope to seep onto a dark soil a dough mixed with blood and a martyr The setting sun glimpsed through a crack in the prison wall through the wire and the iron it crept and there my vision started All at once I looked up a flight of pigeons filled the distance As though someone was celebrating a feast unveiling a happiness I praised the ways of God transforming the ancient a new this land, this Egypt awakens too, from old decrepit age, sheds all wrinkles and is again a youthful bride."
