Rashed El Majed - 3alamteni

Hello, I got this Arabic song that I really like, and I would like to know the translation of the lyrics. I only have the youtube link, but the lyrics are posted on the right side of the page (i think). Please help me with this translation.
Thank you! Shukran!

It's Rashed El Majed - 3alametni - She Taught Me

علمتني وشلون احب
She taught me how to love

علمني كيف انســــــــــى
Teach me how to forget

يابحر ضايع فيـــــــه
A lost sea inside of me

الشط والمرســـــــــــــى
The coast and the dock

علمتني وشلون احن
She taught me how to be affectionate

علمني كيف اقســـــــــى
Teach me how to be cruel

سير علي ..
بس امسح دموعي وروح
Walk away, just wipe my tears off then leave

سير علي ..
جب لي معك قلـــب وروح
Walk away, bring me back a heart with you and leave

سير علي ..
اذا تذكرت الجــــــــــروح
Walk away, if you recall the hurt

ياطاغي النظرة خـطا
You must have given me that gaze by mistake

تجزى بهالبخل العطا
You are so cheap when it comes to giving

وانا اللي اهديتك أمن
And I gave you security

عين وجفـــــــــــــن
An eye and eyelid

هذي فراش وذا غطا
One [the eye] as a sheet and the other [eyelid] as a blanket

ويا بحر ضايع فيه ..
And oh lost sea inside of me

ياجرح من وين ابتدي
Oh hurt, from where do I begin

وانت معي من مولدي
You've been with me since the beginning

وعيت يــــــــــــــــدي
My hand has awoken

على وداعك تهتــــدي
To the good-bye that is guiding it

بس انت علمني الجفـــــــــــــــا
But I ask that you teach me to be harsh

دامني عجزت اعلمك كيف الوفا
Because I have grown old trying to teach you loyalty

ويا بحر ضايع فيه
And oh lost sea inside of me

I have just one question :-o this lines:
علمتني وشلون احب
She taught me how to love

علمني كيف انســــــــــى
She taught me how to forget

why isn't it in the second line: "3almny keef ansaa-teach me to forget" but the past???

yes you're right it's present tense.. I looked them over quick and read it as 3alemetni.. Ill fix that up

Thank you sooo much! What a beautiful song. Pretty sad, but beautiful.
