ذكريات وأيام جميلة وحكايات ولا ألف ليلة
Memories and beautiful days. Stories no more like thousand nights!
شفت الدنيا ودقت الحب دقت عذاب سنين القلب
I have seen life and I tasted love. I tasted years of heart suffering!
مكتوب علي أداوي جراح أداوي الناس على شان ترتاح
It is written on me to heal wounds. To heal people so I can find comfort!
لفيت بلاد بلاد بلاد لا شفت أحباب ولا شفت أحباب
I roamed in countries, countries, countries. I haven’t found lovers, haven’t found lovers!
مكتوب علي أقول مواويل وعيني تبقى ونجوم الليل
It is written on me to say songs, and my eyes would be with the night’s stars!
أبعت مراسيل وتجيني مراسيل والقلب أهو داب القلب أهو داب
I would send messages (letters) and I would receive messages (letters) and the heart get melted, the heart get melted!
السنين عدت علينا والدموع جرحت عنينا
Years passed us by and the tears hurt our eyes!
بعد ما عشت سنين سواح لازم قلبي في يوم يرتاح
After I lived for years as a traveler, it must for my heart to rest one day!
I don't think I miss things. I think to miss something is to hope that it will come back, but it's not coming back.
