Many thanks.
ليل يا ليل ليل يا سلام عليك
The night, oh the night, bless you (or literally peace be upon you)
والكون هادي والجو جميل
The universe is calm and the weather is beautiful
ياللي تحبوا الليل النادي ياللي تناجوا الطير الشادي
Those who love the calling night and the singing birds
غنوا معاي و قولوا
sing with me and say
ليل يا ليل ليل يا سلام عليك
the night, oh the night, bless you
والكون هادي والجو جميل
and the universe is calm and the weather is beautiful
الليل وادي العشاق يتلوع فيه قلب المشتاق
The night is the valley of lovers in which a heart (a heart thats missing someone) burns
ياللي كواكوا الحب بناره
Those who were ironed with the fire of love
ياللي سقاكوا الشوق اسراره
Those who were watered with the secrets of love
غنوا معاي وقولوا
Sing with me and say
ليل يا ليل ليل يا سلام عليك
The night, oh the night, bless you
والكون هادي والجو جميل
and the universe is calm and the weather is beautiful
الليل ما احلى نجومه نسي المهموم كل همومه
How beautiful the night's stars are. They make the burdened forget his burdens
ياللي ضناكم حال الأيام
Those who became busy with the situations( harsh situations) of life
الدنيا دي كلها اوهام
This world is all illusions
غنوا معاي وقولوا
Sing with me and say
ليل يا ليل ليل يا سلام عليك
The night, oh the night, bless you
والكون هادي والجو جميل
and the universe is calm and the weather is beautiful
يا نسيم احمل سلامي للي مال قلبي اليه
Oh breeze carry my greetings to who is waiting for it
اشتكي له من هيامي
Complain to him about my adoration
وانشغال فكري عليه
and busyness of my mind with him
قضيت نهاري اناجي طيفك
I spent my days surviving your ghost
اقول لروحي امتى اشوفك
I say to my soul when will I see him?
والقرب يحلى من غير عزول
and closeness becomes sweeter without isolation
لما حواني الليل وزاد في قلبي الميل
Why did the night accept me (let me live inside of it) and increased my missing
مريت على بيتك وحدي
I passed your house by myself
اغني من شدة وجدي
I sing because of the severeness of my passion
I came to find you with my melody and the pure love is clear in my eyeوجيت اناجيكي بلحني والحب ظاهر في عنيه
يمكن فؤادك يرحمني وتطللي وتردي عليَ
Your heart can be easy on me by responding to me
