I left my heart in Cairo

I left my heart in Cairo

I left my heart in Cairo

Where the world’s first souls are found

I left my heart in Cairo

Where the people’s courageous hearts fiercely pound

I left my heart in Cairo

Where no matter where I go, my feet find no comfort except on her ground

I left my heart in Cairo

Where my final destination is bound

I left my heart in Cairo

With the silent whispers of the Nile; to the world makes the greatest sound

I left my heart in Cairo

With the millions of hearts made of gold

I left my heart in Cairo

Where thousands of stories are continuously told

I left my heart in Cairo

Where the beats of drums roar and men of honor soar

I left my heart in Cairo

Where the sun never dies

I left my heart in Cairo

Where there’s a smile at every demise

I left my heart in Cairo

Where the callings of faith harmonically rise

I left my heart in Cairo

Where at every corner of her streets proudly stands a dome

I left my heart in Cairo

Where love, beauty, and power lured the king of Rome

I left my heart in Cairo

Where its misty air and magical pebbles of sand is my only home.
