far across the sea   a piece of history   in Egypt's land   I'll build a city   beautiful and strong   beyond belief   a new metropolis   to redefine my destiny      rise and shine Alexandria   under protection of my name   pure, divine, and imperial      a place to watch the stars   the center of the earth   I see it all... my worlds converging   and to guide a king's armada through the night   I raise the seventh wonder to delight Poseidon      rise and shine Alexandria   under protection of my name   pure, divine, and imperial      make me the city of a living angel   casting shades all over Babylon   hailing me, a holy son of god   as a monument of time   and the goals that I achieved   make a sculpture of my mind
