أعطني الناي وغني فالغنا سر الوجود /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni falghinna2 sirrou loujoud
وأنين الناي يبقى بعد أن يفنى الوجود /Wa aneenoun nay yabqa ba3d 2an yafna loujoud
أعطني الناي وغني فالغنا سر الخلود /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni falghinna2 sirrou khouloud
وأنين الناي يبقى بعد أن يفنى الوجود /Wa aneenoun nay yabqa ba3d 2an yafna loujoud
هل إتخذت الغاب مثلي منزلاً دون القصور /Hal takhatta lghaba mithly manzelan doun alqousour
فتتبعت السواقي وتسلقت الصخور /Fatataba3ta assawaqy wa tasalaqta assoukhour
هل تحممت بعطر وتنشفت بنور /Hal ta7amamta bi3atari wa tanashafta binour
وشربت الفجر خمراً في كؤوس من أثير /Wa sharibta alfajra khamran fi kou2ousi min atheer
أعطني الناي وغني فالغنا سر الوجود /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni falghinna2 sirrou loujoud
وأنين الناي يبقى بعد أن يفنى الوجود /Wa aneenoun nay yabqa ba3d 2an yafna loujoud
أعطني الناي وغني فالغنا سر الخلود /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni falghinna2 sirrou khouloud
وأنين الناي يبقى بعد أن يفنى الوجود /Wa aneenoun nay yabqa ba3d 2an yafna loujoud
هل جلست العصر مثلي بين جفنات العنب /Hal jalasta al3asra mithly bayna jafnati el3ainab
والعناقيد تدلت كثريات الذهب /Wa l3anaqeedou tadallat kathourayati eththahab
هل فرشت العشب ليلاً وتلحفت الفضاء /Hal farashta l3ashba laylan wa tal7afta alfada2
زاهداً في ما سيأتي ناسياً ما قد مضى /Zahidan fi masaya2ty naseean ma qad mada
أعطني الناي وغني فالغنا عدل القلوب /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni falghinna2 3adlou lqouloub
وأنين الناي يبقى بعد أن تفنى الذنوب /Wa aneenoun nay yabqa ba3d 2an tafna aththounoub
أعطني الناي وغني وانسى داء ودواء /A3tiny ennay wa ghanni w ansa da2an wa dawa2
إنما الناس سطورٌ كتبت لكن بماء /Innama annasou soutourou koutibat laken bima
Give me the flute and sing because singing is the secret of life
and the whine of the flute will remain even after the end of existence
Give me the flute and sing because singing is the secret of eternity
and the whine of the flute will remain even after the end of existence
Did you choose, like me,woodlands as a home instead of palaces ?
And did you follow the streams and climb up the rocks ?
Did you bathe with perfumes and dry up under the light of the sun ?
Did you sip the dawn as a wine served in ethereal glasses ?
Give me the flute and sing because singing is the secret of life
and the whine of the flute will remain even after the end of existence
Give me the flute and sing because singing is the secret of eternity
and the whine of the flute will remain even after the end of existence
Have you ever sat like me at nightfall among the gripevines ?
Their drooping bunches are like gold chandeliers
Have you ever slept on the grass at night just covered by the sky ?
Not interested in future and forgotten of the past
Give me the flute and sing because singing is moderation for the hearts
and the whine of the flute will remain even after the sins have perished
Give me the flute and sing and forget the illnesses and the medications
because men are no more than lines written with water
