Wust el Balad - Hela Hop

Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help me find the arabic lyrics for this song as well as translate them to English for me. The lyrics don't appear to be on the band's website, unfortunately. :-(


From what I understand, "Hela Hop" is something you say to encourage someone when doing something difficult? Is it used in other Arabic countries aside from Egypt?

Thanks!

[ hela hop] is a band from Sudan as far i know
and about the meaning of that word it doesnt give a clear sense
but its used instead of the word ( jump ) or used
as expression when something is twisting /rounding /turning
something like that u know

anyway / do u have the song video or any link so we can help u with translation ?

Hi,

Thanks for the explanation about the meaning of the word.

Here's the YouTube video:

And here are the lyrics from http://www.sohbanet.com/vb/showthread.php?t=61806 , which I finally found by typing in some of the lyrics which I did understand into google (They also have the lyrics from some of the other songs on the same album, in case there are any other Wust el Balad fans out there looking for the lyrics).


هيلا هوب

هيلا هوب و هيلا ليصه لو تكون صعبه وعويصه
حط كتفك جنب كتفي لقمه ناشفه حاف تكفي

نطلق الغنوة الحديثه هيلا هوب و هيلا ليصه

هيلا هوب وهيلا يلا العمر والارزاق علي الله
يلا يا ايوب زمانك من العباد ما حد عانك ترك الفكرة الخبيثه

هيلا هوب وهيلا هوبا يا ابني بلدي
الغربه صعبه البد ديه ترابها اغلي مرها من الشهد احلا
عذبها متشرب هريصه هيلا هوب وهيلا ليصه



Thanks!

hela hop and hela hoppa my country son
Alienation is hard and this land soil is very dear
and even its bitter taste is better from a honey taste
its sweet taste has taken big part so hela hoppa and hela leysa

p.s / hela hop = have no meaning
but its like expression word liek saying lets do it
or hurry lets do it ..

but in general this song has no sense its just a beat song
no less no more
