Cleopatra, the queen enigma!
Oh, Cleopatra, the Ceaser, the emperor your saga is unparalleled in human history; Many emperors, Ceasere, Jaars and Kaisers have come and gone from this world. But your name is eternal and your majesty is incomparable; when the Ceaser, the great bowed before you and when you were driven in the streets of ancient Rome, Where no woman and never had such an honour Yes, a thousand ships might have been burnt and many empires might have collapsed; Be they, Roman, Egyptian, Persian or Armenian All under your name, and for the sake of your unbridled ambition and all for your intoxicating spell! of your ethereal beauty, your well blossomed womanhood your majesty and your blue-cobratic eye Yes, any man has to fall for 'you' and for your 'aura' Be it, the Ceaser or Mark Antony, Even the Lipidus or Octavian might have been, if you have eyed at them! Yes, your ravishing beauty, your unique majesty and your ravaging ambition, was the turn of history
