Sylvia St. James - Motherland

Egyptian land the heaven hand(?) Your history such mystery Egyptian land of soil(?) and sand Your history for all to see From the Delta beyond Cairo Only fertile land Life sustaining river Was God's gift to man Flowers more in number Than a heaven land(?) I protect your splendor From the desert sand Temples hold a message Rain may shot, behold People of a color Brown, traditional Mother, motherland I must come back, back to you You hold the answer To what I know and feel is true Quench my thirst for my past It’s so vast My life freely once more Mother, motherland Oh great ancient nation Rich just like the Nile Let’s set back to another age Both woman and child Young Tutankhamen’s treasure Can not form and fold Once it was forgotten Scores of centuries old Waiting for the royalty Realize in stone Great Pyramid at Giza Your one stands alone Egyptian land the heaven hand(?) Your history such mystery Egyptian land of soil(?) and sand Your history for all to see (Lenny White, Leslie Renee)
