A very furious wave of protest finally swept Egypt's President
After eighteen days of relentless rallies against poverty and corruption.
To autocrats across the Arab world, it was sent a real advertisement
And Vice President said a military council would run the affairs of the nation.


A free and fair presidential election in September has been promised
After Mubarak had flown with his family from Cairo to the Red Sea.
People embraced in Cairo's Tahrir the main focus of their protest,
Mubarak left because of the conditions he didn't agree.

Sobbing for joy, the Egyptians celebrated in a carnival mood on the street,
They fought to have their freedom and to demand their needed right.
They won because Mubarak easily broke in his most dispirited final defeat
And 'Egypt is free! ' Egyptian people screamed on Friday night.


For Egyptians, Mubarak's resignation wasn't only a political matter.
Egyptians noticed how much of their lives had passed under Mubarak.
They have decided that they were going to change their lives for the better.
Therefore, Egypt's revolution turned very violent as Mubarak struck back.


There was a note of caution over how far the military allowed a democracy
Someone said Egypt isn't moving toward democracy but into martial law.
People rose against the government, asking for an end to the President's autocracy.
Europe's Arabs have watched those events with a mixture of fear and awe.


Mubarak's resignation left countless uncertainties for the whole nation
But the main goal of the Egyptian revolution has been achieved.
Out there, in the middle of that 'ice storm, ' there was a real torsional vibration
But, in the end, the crowd is going to be very excited and relieved.
