Lovely Nile Poem by khaled Elbalishy

What a lovely Nile at night,
Marvelous! I saw the reflection of the light.
Soft wind was merciful,
People were hand in hand, helpful
The young waited for the ship,
They prepared sing, dance and friendship
All forgot work and hardship.
All encouraged, the ship was coming,
Dreaming the ship was flying.
Gaiety, it was landed
The voyage was splendid.
Singing, moving and clapping,
A mother pushed her little girl dancing,
The little was dancing with admiration,
Shy, the dance had short duration.
Hot, hot! ! Soft wind was coming again,
Fine, fine no cry or complain.
Wondering the lovely voyage,
Pointing to lighting cottage.
I can't forget the sweet day,
To follow the same nice day.
