The dancer Shafiqa the Coptic “is a woman who has achieved everything in life, fame, glory, and extreme wealth. She lived a life like that of kings and princes, but all this went in the blink of an eye and became scattered for nothing.”
Shafiqa reached a point of fame and wealth that made her live like princes and became the first woman in Egypt to own “carts” and many loved her and fans flocked to her, as there were those who spent all their money on them without getting anything in return, and there were those who opened champagne bottles to water their horses! !.
Shafiqa advanced in age, and following all this success and fame that she reached, her youth and beauty began to wither and go away as time went by, and the queue of fans began to decrease, and so did fame as well, and she began to drink alcohol and take drugs and squander money, and also began to buy corrupt young people with money to rally around her To feel love until a young man married her for her money, and following he took everything she had, he left her and went.
And here Shafiqa began begging in the streets of Cairo asking for charity, and one night she met Sayed Darwish and said to him, “I don’t want money, I myself feed fish.” At that time, Sayed Darwish wept for her and for what happened to her following wealth, glory and fame, and she turns into a beggar rambling. All her wish in life is to taste fish!! .
