I really liked that song , and I find out that some more songs over the world have the same melody (even in Israel) , so I googled and wikied it and I find out who composed this melody its from the "Concierto de Aranjuez" by the spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo Concierto de Aranjuez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
you can here the melody here YouTube - Paco.de.Lucia - Concierto.de.Aranjuez - part 2

and I found the lyrics in this site ;-)
Be Saraha Lounge: Lost in Translation


To Beirut - peace to Beirut with all my heart
And kisses - to the sea and clouds (I thought boyoot means houses.. ???) ,
To the rock of a city that looks like an old sailor's face.
From the soul of her people she makes wine,
From their sweat, she makes bread and jasmine.

Le Beirut, Min Kalbee Salamon Le Beirut
Wa Kobalon lil Bahr wal Boyoot
le sakhraten ka'nnaha
wajh bahhren kadeem
Heya Min rooh el sha'b heyamin
3arakeheh Khobzon wa yasameen
fa keif sar ta3moha
ta3mo naren wa dokhanen

And the part which brings a stab to my heart, giving me goose bumps, and a quick tear to my eye, is the following:

You are mine, You are mine
Oh hold me, you are mine
You are my Beirut, you are mine,
oh embrace me.

Antee lee antee lee
aheh 3anekeene antee lee
antee Beirut lee, inteh lee
aheh 3aneekeene

yes moshe i know you are mightyy
shokran kesiran
=)

Mawla ya salli Was sallim da´Iman abadan

مش قولت هتنسانى
اللى خلاك تيجى تانى
وانت خليت قلبى ملانى عزاب وجراااح
وجراااح
لو هحكيلك من تانى بعد ما قلبك بكانى
وانا بوعد قلبى ان انسا كل اللى راح
مش قولت هتنسانى
اللى خلاك تيجى تانى
وانت خليت قلبى ملانى عزاب وجراااح
وجراااح
لو هحكيلك من تانى بعد ما قلبك بكانى
وانا بوعد قلبى ان انسا كل اللى راح
تدوء طعم الفراق
قلبى انا ليك مابقاش يشتاق
جاى تقول نرجع من تانى
وانا قلبى فااااااااق
لاء انسا خلاص مش هبقى ليك
وكمان قلبى نسيك
يعنى كده مش باقى بننا غير فراااق
قلتلى انساك ونسيتك
ونسيت ان انا حبيتك
وازااى انا كنت بقولك احلى كلااام
عايز ترجع من تانى
قلبك غدار وانانى
خليك عايش فى مراار وعزاب والآم
تدوء طعم الفراق
قلبى انا ليك مابقاش يشتاق
جاى تقول نرجع من تانى
وانا قلبى فااااااااق
لاء انسا خلاص مش هبقى ليك
اناااا قلبى نسيك
يعنى كده مش باقى بننا غير فراااق

مش قولت هتنسانى
اللى خلاك تيجى تانى
وانت خليت قلبى ملانى عزاب وجراااح
وجراااح
لو هحكيلك من تانى بعد ما قلبك بكانى
وانا بوعد قلبى ان انسا كل اللى
رااااااااااااااااااااح


A greeting from my heart to Beirut
kisses to the sea and to the houses
to a rock, which is like an old sailor’s face
She is made from the people’s soul..from wine
She is from his sweat…a bread and Jasmins
So how does her taste become? A taste of fire and smoke

Beirut has a glory of ashes
My city has turned out her lamp
By a child’s blood, who was over her hand
She’as shut her door, and became alone in the sky
Alone with the night
You are mine, you are mine
Ah Hug me you are mine
You are my flag, tomorrow stone
And a travel’s waves
My people’s wounds have flourished
And mothers tear
You are mine, you are mine
Ah Hug me

------------

Li Beirut min qalbi salamon li beirut
W qobalon lil ba7er w albiout
Lisakhratin k2anaha wajho ba7arin qadeemi
Hea min..rou7 ilsha3b hea min 3araqihi khobzon w yasamin
Fakief sar ta3moha….
Ta3m narin w dokhani
Li Beirut majdon min ramadin
li Beirut ..min Damin liwalidn 7omil faouq yadiha
Atfa2at madinati qindeelha
Aghlaqat babha..Asbahat fi almasa wahdaha…
wahdaha w layilo
Anti li Anti li Ahhi 3aniqeeni anti li…rayati w 7ajaro alghadi w mawjo safrin
Azharat jera7 sha3bi azharat…dam3ato alOmahat…
Anti li…Anti li..Ahi 3aniqeeni

____________________________________arabiyya ena

yes you're right elif it's not libanese it's standart arabic but fairuz is libanese she's the best i adore her songs a lot

me too i love her
the "ya tayr" is the second nice song and than "baadak ala baly"

and others are nice

yes she has many and many songs ,even if she's old her songs are being sung by every body here

Do it have special meaning ? i mean, was it written in a memory of something ?
