In the annals of time, a saga unfolds,
Of Abu Simbel Temple, a story untold,
A hidden secret, veiled for millennia past,
Now revealed in history at last.
Carved in stone, a symbol of ancient might,
Standing proud in Nubia’s golden light,
Yet threatened by modern progress’s hand,
Its fate uncertain in a changing land.
To save this marvel from watery grave,
A daring plan, bold and brave,
Relocation beckoned, a monumental task,
To preserve this treasure, no questions asked.
Meticulous hands, skilled and true,
Moved the temple, a grand debut,
Piece by piece, stone by stone,
A feat of engineering, widely known.
Across the sands, to higher ground,
The temple soared, a victory found,
Unveiling secrets of the ancient past,
A legacy preserved, set to last.
The sun now kisses the temple’s new face,
A testament to humanity’s grace,
Abu Simbel stands tall, proud and free,
A symbol of resilience for all to see.
The incredible tale of relocation told,
Of a temple saved from waters cold,
Its hidden secret now unveiled,
In history’s embrace, forever hailed.
