I am the Nile

I am the Nile, Queen of Egypt
And far famed fabulous Sudan
I give you life along my miles
My bountiful floods are your ever survival
I am your shield against sure death
You used to built shrines to my might
With incense volutes to salute my being
Nowadays only dust swirls to me 
You dam me to keep my power
Feed me with the blood of your infidels
Contain me in every way
But I am the Nile, Queen of Egypt
And far famed fabulous Sudan.
