There's a promise brought on the wind A whisper that speeds to a shout 50 days of sand walls heralding spring The promise of new beginnings First as payment for this new birth, Mother Earth Blows grains of sand into the eyes of humankind Suffocating and choking all in the barren land Spring is heralded by a claustrophobic cyclonic dust storm A new beginning, fresh and clean Above the howling rising sandstorm, spring is sprung.

خمسين khamsīn, "fifty"
There's a promise brought on the wind A whisper that speeds to a shout 50 days of sand walls heralding spring The promise of new beginnings First as payment for this new birth, Mother Earth Blows grains of sand into the eyes of humankind Suffocating and choking all in the barren land Spring is heralded by a claustrophobic cyclonic dust storm A new beginning, fresh and clean Above the howling rising sandstorm, spring is sprung.
Khamsin is a hot southerly wind, varying from southeast to southwest, that blows regularly in Egypt and over the Red Sea for about 50 days, commencing about the middle of March. Copyright © JLB 31/03/2017 00:45GMT
