Historical DocumentsIranQueen Fawzia1939 (c.) autograph letter from Fawzia, the future Empress of Iran, writing to Queen Farida of Egypt, wife of King Farouk 1 (her brother), with original envelope addressed "La Majesté la Reine / Farida / Egypte".My dear Farida,Would you my dear Farida excuse me not writing to you before now.You must know that my sentiments towards you, are always the same, if not more. But do you see Farida that if I had written to you before I could not have helped not speaking about the sad incident that have passed between our two countries, and I would not have liked to cause you any pain because you had naturally nothing to do with this story. I was very pained as well as my dear husband about all that has passed and that should not have passed, but I hope that now that the bad tongue will stop over there.I have to tell you that my husband thinks a lot of good about you and also Zeinab. He gardes (sic) a very good souvenir of you. Well now I think that it is time to start speaking about something more pleasant.I am giving this letter to Hassanein to take to you because it is more sure of reaching you safely.I have such lots of things to ask you that I don't know how to start, but of course the first thing that comes into my head is, how is dear little Ferial? How she must have grown since I last saw her. I saw just recently in the papers a photo of her sitting up, how fat and podgy she looks; how I would love to see her now and kiss and hug her. Zeinab told me that in one of your letters you said Ferial had started to walk a little and also speak a few words. Do please send me some photos of her. I would so love to have them and if you have any photos of yourself and Loukie - it would be so nice. What are you doing these days? Faika told me that she sees you more often now, than she used to, and every Friday she goes to the cinema with you, and in fact she is enjoying herself more than when we were together.I hear that Loukie is taking down quite a lot of buildings as usual, he has not yet lost that craze.I expect you go swimming a lot these days with Faiza. I hear that Nimi might be getting engaged very soon to the son of Dr Aly Ibrahim, is it true, does she like him? If it is true give her all my best wishes.How is Mama getting on these days in the best of moods I hope. You had better not show this letter to her as there might be ructions. I hear that Fathia has left her, or rather she got the boot. Any Way how did it happen? I never did like her much, neither did you for that matter. How is Bibi taking on the job? Is Mama really going to Europe? I don't think it can be possible now considering the situation in Europe, what with war starting it is much too dangerous.Your birthday is very neat, I expect you will get this letter after. You tell me about all the wonderful presents you will receive. I am also sending you a little present that I hope you will like, even though it is not anything much, it is not anything very much, it is just a little remembrance to show you that I have not forgotten you.I remembered you saying once that you would like to have a parure of turquoise, well it is very hard to find it all at once so I am sending you little by little, starting with the ring, which I hope that you will like.I expect you have heard rumours like everybody else that I am going to have a baby; ell I am afraid it is not true, I am not going to have a baby at least not just now, but maybe the next time I write you may hear the news.I expect you have read in my sister's letters what I do every day, well there is nothing new to write about except that I play tennis every other day, and see the cinema. In fact I have a very nice time and I am very very happy and I that is all. Give my sallams to your ladies in waiting Akiler & co.My husband and I send you our best thoughts.Lots of love from yourEver devotedFawziaPS - Don't forget the snaps - and write as soon as possible, give my love to LoukieA rare and interesting letter between the Royal families of Iran and Egypt.
