The Nile Song
I was standing by the Nile
Whe I saw the lady smile.
I would take her out for a while,
For a while. Light tears wept like a child.
How her golden hair was blowing wild.
Then she spread her wings to fly,
For to fly. Soaring high above the breezes,
Going always where she pleases.
She will make it to the island in the sun.
I will follw in her shadow
As I watch her from my window.
One day I will catch her eye. She is calling from the deep,
Summoning my soul to endless sleep.
She is bound to drag me down,
Drag me down.

hatem faroukPink Floyd proved to every metal band that they can beat them easily if they intend to since Black Sabbath were in the business at the same era , Gilmour is a guitar legend by all means
Electric SailorI believe they had just played a gig with Blue Cheer when they recorded this track. Perhaps some of that sound inspired them here?
andre pimentelthe song from 64 to 1970 time that is nearest from the actual heavy metal , always loved this song. the composition is great always changing the notes scale in one note in every cycle
Adrian CookeWhat year is this from?
Giancarlo FiginiThe great hard rock soul of Pink Floyd..
ZimphireViovod’s cover of this was good too.
Sergio GarofoliThe very first heavy metal song when metal wasn´t even heavy enough to have a name. The most brillant poem in hard riff. Awsome.
Plu RayThe Melvins did a cover of this great PF song.
Richard HopkinsonPunk Floyd

Claudia UNAFRAIDthe myth of ISIS and the rise of the Nile
Mudstone !The current Nick Mason tour does this tune! So heavy, amazing show!
jawad KazmiWhen I first heard this I must have been around 1t or 16 1980. Thought what a cool album of mixed typical floyd grooves in there usual melodic fasion then This Big JAM! Wow rock on all you groovers. ???? should have been an FM radio air hit.
