"Ancient Alexandria, site of cumulative knowledge, cradle of enlightenment
Levelled to the ground by the children of the
crucified one,
Wiped away in blindness..."
The library, I have seen its shade
Wittnessed how dignity and wisdom did
fade
Ignorance! The flames of arrogance...
An act of indifference towards what was in our hands
And turned to
dust
Look to the stars, the mirror of the past
Now you seek to learn what in those flames did burn
The cosmic secrets
will be revealed to me
The pyramides donate their knowledge of eternity
At astronomical dimensions I have glanced
We will regain
it when mankind has advanced
