The Garden of Flowers
******************

She led me, hand in hand, and we went into her garden to be together.

There she made me taste excellent honey.

The papyrus were verdant and its bushes flourishing.

There were raisins and cherries redder than the ruby.

The ripe peaches resembled bronze,

and the groves had the lustre of the stone used to make amulets,

The menni unshelled like cocoa nuts they brought to us,

its shade was fresh and airy, and soft for the repose of love.

When she met me, the daughter of the Chief Superintendent of the orchards

had sent her as the messenger of love,

"Come to me," she called,

"and enjoy yourself a day in the room of a young girl who belongs to you,

the garden is today in its glory

there is a terrace and a parlor

(circa 18th - 19th dynasty)

Merut Kemi - Black Love
********************

This love is as good

as oil and honey to the throat,

as linen to the body,

as fine garments to the gods,

as incense to worshippers when they enter in,

as the little seal-ring to my finger.

It is like a ripe pear in a man's hand.

It is like the dates we mix with wine.

It is like the seeds the baker adds to bread.

We will be together even when old age comes.

And the days in between

will be food set before us,

dates and honey, bread and wine.

Sister without Peer
***************

My one, the sister without peer,

The handsomest of all!

She looks like the rising morning star

At the start of a happy year.

Shining bright, enchanting skin,

Lovely the look of her eyes,

Sweet the speech of her lips,

She has not a word too much.

Upright neck, shining breast,

Hair true lapis lazuli;

Arms surpassing gold,

Fingers like lotus buds.

Heavy thighs, narrow waist,

Her legs parade her beauty;

With graceful step she treads the ground,

Captures my heart by her movements.

She causes all men's necks

To turn about to see her;

Joy has he whom she embraces,

He is like the first of men!

When she steps outside she seems

Like that the Sun!

Saam-Plants here Summon Us
*************************

Saam-plants here summon us,

I am your sister, your best one;

I belong to you like this plot of ground

That I planted with flowers

And sweet-smelling herbs.

Sweet is its stream,

Dug by your hand,

Refreshing in the north wind.

A lovely place to wander in,

Your hand in my hand.

My body thrives, my heart exults

At our walking together;

Hearing your voice is pomegranate wine,

I live by hearing it.

Each look with which you look at me

sustains me more than food and drink.

I Haven't Seen Sister
*******************

Seven to yesterday that I haven't seen sister,

and sickness has entered deep into me,

I have grown heavy in my limbs,

my body has lost sense of itself.

When the chief physicians come to me,

my heart finds no relief in their remedies,

and the ritual-readers, there is no way through them,

my sickness cannot be uncovered.

Just telling me 'here she is' is my cure,

her name is what can raise me,

the coming and going of her messengers

is what can cure my heart.

Being a brother is better for me than any medicine:

it is more important to me than any prescription book,

My health-cure is her visit,

has she gazed, then I am well,

has she opened her eyes, then my body is young,

has she spoken, then I am strong.

When I embrace her, she has banished harm from me.

She left me now seven days.

The ancient Egyptians originated with the Sudanese and Egyptians, not Ethiopia, Eritrea, or Somalia.

People, Wally believes in eurocentrism which is why he doesn't believe that Sudan and Egypt had anything to do with of all things "Ancient Egypt".

This is because in the world of pseudoanthropology, the fake science that Wally's white masters have sodomized into him, the Sudanese and indigenous Egyptians are more "negroid" than horn of Africans. Therefore Wally's sad ass has cut those people from their own history and assigned it to those who more suit eurocentric propaganda purposes.

This is also why he didn't use any Sudanese or indigenous Egyptian images in this thread.

Your a sad pathetic case Wally, but again you're a beatdown AA who believes whatever your white owners order you to believe.

PS Wally,

Quit posting materials you use when you play with yourself.

We don't want to know who you wham-a-lang your thang off of.
