The Pyramids of Egypt

Standing tall, like a wall
   The great pyramids of Egypt;
Peaking high, without a sigh
   The true symbols of Egypt.

Embodying the soul of the pharaohs
    And speaking of the great civilization;
Gleaming stories of a king and queen
    Giving us an idea of all that was sheen.

If I were a pharaoh and had to build one
    I would build one right here on this soil;
For I would have it in my backyard
    To show all the people of all that hard toil.

But neither am I Ramses nor a Nefertiti
    Nor an Egyptian living on the banks of Nile;
You go on and admire the greatness of the pyramids
    But Let alone this poor Indian to rest for a while.
