THE MODERN EGYPTIANS. [PART II.
" 'A shik yekul li-1-hamam hat lee genahak yom.
Kal el-hamam amrak batil: kultu gheyr el-yom :
Hatta ateer fi-l-g6 wa-nzur wegh el-mahboob :
A'khud widad 'am wa-rga' ya hamam fee y6m.
El-leyl. El-leyl, &c."
A lover says to the dove, " Lend me your wings for a day."
The dove replied, " Thy affair is vain :" I said, " Some other day :
That I may soar through the sky, and see the face of the beloved:
I shall obtain love enough for a year, and will return, O dove, in a
day."
The night! The night! &c.
THE CALL TO PRAYER.
The call to prayer, repeated from the mad'nehs
(or menarets) of the mosques, I have already mentioned*. I have often heard this call, in Cairo,
chanted in the following manner; and in a style
more or less similar, it is chanted by most of the
mueddins of this city.
