Hail to the Queen, they scream with pride.
They let her pass, they step aside.
A life to rule, to dedicate;
A life of glory, love and hate.
Plenty of mystery to hide.
A Greek woman on the outside,
An Egyptian queen inside.
No words for a woman so great,
Hail to the Queen!
Of kings, she took their hearts, untied.
She was dear, but never a bride.
First, Caesar lost his mind, too late.
Anthony met with the same fate
As she left the Earth, they all cried:
“Hail to the Queen!”
