In All Pride We Are Workers:
We are the Egyptian workers, we are the brave
A thousand salutes to you, oh Egypt, mother of all
Workers are the secret of the beauty of cities
Heroes guard the secrets of the crafts
We are the builders of your pyramids, oh sphinx
Workers, all of us your servants, as we all know
We are the builders of the Pharaohs' fleets
And all that is beautiful in this world
