Far across the sea
A piece of history
In Egypt's land
I'll build a cityBeautiful and strong
Beyond belief
A new metropolis
To redefine my destinyRise and shine Alexandria
Under protection of my name
Pure, divine and imperialA place to watch the stars
The center of the earth
I see it all
My world's convergingAnd to guide a king's armada
Through the night
I raise the seventh wonder
To delight PoseidonRise and shine Alexandria
Under protection of my name
Pure, divine and imperialMake me the city of a living angel
Casting shades all over Babylon
Hailing me, a holy Son of GodAs a monument of time
And the goals that I achieved
Make a sculpture of my mindRise and shine Alexandria
Under protection of my name
Pure, divine and imperial
You are a golden age proclaimRise and shine Alexandria
Under protection of my name
Pure, divine and imperial
