ILHAM AL MADFAI - 7 Songs

Hello everyone,
I have a treat for you. A song probably most people haven't heard. Who has heard of Ilham al Madfai? Can somebody give me the lyrics in Arabic, then the English translation? Shukran Jazeelan 7abaayab

Actually its multiple songs I like from him. He's Iraqi

But if the song seems too nonsensical I guess you don't have to do it.

الهام المدفعي - شلشل علي الرمان - ريمكس
[0i7OKtAeWyw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i7OKtAeWyw[/video]

شلشل علي الرمان
شلشل عليه الرمان
شلشل عليه الرمان...
النومي فزعلي

tchalchal 3alaye el rumman
elnomi faza3li

the pomegranate tree sway toward me
i woke up from my sleep in panic

هذا الحلو ما اريده...
ودوني لاهلي

hatha el 7elo ma reeda
waddooni lahli

i dont need this beauty
take me back to my parents

جم دوب اظل ملهوف
واكعد بدربه

tcham doob athal malhoof
wak3od bdarbah

how many times i stood melted in eager
sitting in his path ( where his lover passed )

لا مر عليه وفات
ولا انكسرقلبه

lamar 3alay o faat
wlankasar galbah

he doesn't cross by my side and passed ( he means his lover didnt pass where he was standing to say hi or anything)
neither his heart get broken ( means his lover heart doesn't broke after seeing him waiting all this time in street so he pass by him)

يا يمه لا تنطرين
بطلي النطارة
ya yumma la tno6reen
ba6li el n6arah

pls mother don't wait me
quit waiting

ما جوز انا من هواي
وماكو كل جاهره*

majooza ana mnehway
o mako kol jahrah

i cannot get over my love
and there is no staring *( am not sure about this line )

ما طول شال الزين
شيلو يا اهلنه
ma 6ool shal el zein
sheeloli yalnah

how long is the veil of the beauty
remove it from my way

وماجابلين الدار
شنهو شغلنه
o mjableen el dar
shenho shaghlanah

and confront the house
what we have to do with it

هيا بنا - الهام مدفعي - elham el madfa3i

[QZD7K3oTyek]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZD7K3oTyek[/video]

يضربني طول الليل أنا بالخيزرانة
روحوا واسألوا الجيران أنا
شو مسونه أنا أنا شو مسويه أنا

yedrobni 6ool el leyla ana bel khayzarana
roo7o es2alo jeraana ana
sho msawya ana ana sho sho msawaya ana

hes beating me with a bamboo stick all night
go and ask neighbors about me
what have i done ..what i have done

ضاع التعب وياك أنا
يا ابن الحموله
حجي الحجته وياك أنا
بالك تقوله

da3el ta3ab weyyak ana
yabnel 7omoola
el 7atchyal 7acheeto wyak ana
balak teegoolaa

i lost my tiredness with you ( means all what he done with his lover was in vain )
hey son of tribe ( this is a respect way to call someone )
the words i have talked with you
were in your mind ( you were thinking to say them)


كل يوم أقول اليوم أنا
باجر يبينون وانطي للمبشر أنا
بوسه من العيون

kel yom aagool el yom aana
bacher ybaynoon wan6i lel mbasher aana
boosa mnel 3yoon

every day i say today i will
tomorrow they'll appear and i will greet someone who bring me the good news
with a kiss from the eyes

i love most of his songs / not to mention that elham el madfa3i as a person is so modest and respectful man
met him years ago in person

Mavii.... Really? Wow! you met Ilham Madfa3i? In which country and tell us about it? An allthelyrics exclusive

i had heard the "bent echalabeyya" by ramy ayach--- but it's so much more beautiful with these relatively simple musical instruments and minus the technological advances. I LIKE!
