Wave your flag high above your head
You deserve to smile, celebrate in style
'Cause everything that oppressed 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
You deserve to smile, celebrate in style
'Cause everything that oppressed 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

"Across the Nile" is an emotional response to the events which unfolded in Egypt during the Arab Spring.
