Wave your flag high above your head,
You deserve to smile, celebrate in style.
Cause everything that depressed you now is gone.
And eighteen days while the world looked on,
You stood your ground, kept holding strong.
Eighteen days while the world looked on.
Across the Nile there are stars tonight
And they shine much brighter than before.
Across the Nile there's peace and love tonight
And it shows much stronger than before.
Much stronger than before.
Free and fair life they said it would be,
Cross our fingers, wait and see
And dream of a better day.
And across the world you've shown them all
That hope and strength can conquer all.
Will we stand together again?
Across the Nile there are stars tonight
And they shine much brighter than before.
Across the Nile there's peace and love tonight
And it shows much stronger than before.
Much stronger than before.
Hope and strength can conquer all,
You've shown the world how the mighty fall.
And across the Nile there are stars
Much brighter than before.
