We used to meet before nightfall // Kenna netla2a min 3ashyi //كنا نتلاقى من عشية
And we sat on the old bridge // W nea2oud 3ala eljisr el3atee2 //ونقعد على الجسر العتيق
While the fog falls onto the plain // W tenzel 3ala essahl eddababe //وتنزل على السهل الضبابة
hiding the vision and the road // Tem7y elmada w tem7y ettaree2 //تمحي المدى و تمحي الطريق

Nobody knows our place of refuge // ma 7ada ya3ref bimoutra7na //ما حدا يعرف بمطرحنا
But the sky and the autumn leaves // Ghayr essama2 w wara2 teshreen //غير السما و ورق تشرين
And when he tells me I love you // w ye2elly ba7abbek ana ba7abbek //ويقل لي بحبك أنا بحبك
The sad clouds run away from us // W yehroub fina elghaym el7azeen //ويهرب فينا الغيم الحزين

I am hopeful that the past years will be back // Ya sneeny elly ra7 terja3eely //يا سنيني اللي رح ترجعيلي
Oh past years come back to me for some time ! // Erja3eely shy marra erja3eely //ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
And let me be forgotten in my childhood // w enseeny 3a bab ettoufoule //وانسيني ع باب الطفولة
So I can run again through those sunny roads // Ta 2ourkoud bishams etter2at //تا أركض بشمس الطرقات

I am hopeful that the past years will be back // Ya sneeny elly ra7 terja3eely //يا سنيني اللي رح ترجعيلي
Oh past years come back to me for some time ! // Erja3eely shy marra erja3eely //ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
And bring back the smiles of those who left // w redeely da7kat elly ra7ou //ورديلي ضحكات اللي راحوا
Their smiles are still echoing in the squares // elly ba3ada bzawaya essa7at //اللي بعدها بزوايا الساحات

I remember what people said about me // Betzakkar shou 7akeeou 3alayy //بتذكر شو حكيوا عليي
While I waited for you but you forgot me // Lamma natart w enta enseet //لما نطرت وإنت نسيت
And the winter rains came upon me // W sar esh shety yenzel 3alayy //وصار الشتي ينزل عليي
Summer has arrived but you didn't return // W 2eja essayf ew enta ma jeet //وإجا الصيف و إنت ما جيت

I am hopeful that the past years will be back // Ya sneeny elly ra7 terja3eely //يا سنيني اللي رح ترجعيلي
Oh past years come back to me for some time ! // Erja3eely shy marra erja3eely //ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
And let me be forgotten in my childhood // w enseeny 3a bab ettoufoule //وانسيني ع باب الطفولة
So I can run again through those sunny roads // Ta 2ourkoud bishams etter2at //تا أركض بشمس الطرقات

I am hopeful that the past years will be back // Ya sneeny elly ra7 terja3eely //يا سنيني اللي رح ترجعيلي
Oh past years come back to me for some time ! // Erja3eely shy marra erja3eely //ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
And bring back the smiles of those who left // w redeely da7kat elly ra7ou //ورديلي ضحكات اللي راحوا
Their smiles are still echoing in the squares // elly ba3ada bzawaya essa7at //اللي بعدها بزوايا الساحات

Awesome job as usual, George!
