Your Birthday Poem by Dr. Ahmed Gumaa Siddiek

Happy Birthday
Some years ago
We celebrated your twenty-two
Today is your birthday
And you are still twenty-two
Next year we will celebrate
Your twenty-two
And hundred years to come
You will remain twenty-two
As age, does never tell on you
Age does never tell on you
You were as beautiful as toady
Smart and arrogant and tall
As a palm tree
Some years ago
We all used to say
That you were the star in the sky
Far, too impossible and so high
To reach
We used to say
You were the moon
In her full bloom
You were the phoenix
Every day with a new day
To remain the queen of all the hearts
And the rest for all the human souls
In fact you are the rest for the whole
And the whole at your feet
Because you are their Queen
And this is your due respect
Then, you are free to set free
Or captivate
Because you are the Queen
And free to do
Whatever you want to do
But let's now celebrate your new reign
As you are still the Queen
And still young,
Smart, tall and beautiful,
And still twenty-two
So happy birthday to you
Maha, happy birthday to you
At your twenty-two
