From the northern beaches of the delta of the river
The river we have tamed and host our cities on the side
Down to the dry, dry southern sands beyond the final cataract
Our nation holds sway
Oh, our nation holds sway
Oh, our nation holds sway
Egypt though she conquer, she's no taker, she's a giver
Now we may crush inferiors but spread our culture wide
We celebrate the former and go wild about the latter act
This triumphant day
Oh, this triumphant day
Oh, this triumphant day
Oh, this triumphant day
Oh, this triumphant day
Oh, oh, oh...
This triumphant day
