Summary/Abstract: The paper concerns young Egyptian poets who sympathized with the Arab Spring in 2011 and expressed their angry and protests against dictatorship in the country. Spontaneous and emo- tional poems reflected two main factors: glorification of the revolution in the Tahrir Square and strong condemnation of Hosni Mubarak’s regime and its apparatus. However, the impulsive literature of young generation also became a chronicle of current history of Egypt, its society and political and social expectations and demands.
