اكتر من الي انا بحلم بيه
More than I've ever dreamed of,
مش قادرة اخبي انا تاني علية
I can't hide it from him again,
دانا من اول ماقابلت عنية نداني
Since the moment I met his eyes, they called to me,
حبيبي معاه
My love is with him,
حياتي وعمري الي انا عيشاه
My life and the years I'm living,
واجمل واصعب قولة اه
And the most beautiful, hardest word is 'yes',
يسبني واحس ان انا وياه ثواني
He leaves me, and I feel that I'm with him for just seconds,
اكتر من الي انا بحلم بيه
More than I've ever dreamed of,
مش قادرة اخبي انا تاني علية
I can't hide it from him again,
دانا من اول ماقابلت عنية نداني
Since the moment I met his eyes, they called to me.
حبيبي معاك
My love, I'm with you
حياتي وعمري الي انا عيشاه
My life and the years that I'm living
واجمل واصعب قولة اه
The most beautiful and hardest word, oh
يسبني واحس ان انا وياه ثواني
He leaves me, but I feel like I’m with him for moments
وداريت علي قلبي واتمنيت
I concealed my heart and wished
قلبك يجيني ويقول كل الي حاسس بيه
Your heart comes to me and tells me everything it's feeling
واهو بان الشوق عليا اهو بان
And the longing is evident on me, oh it's showing
واهو كل شيئ بأوان قال اية بخبي علية
And he says everything in due time, what is he hiding from me?
وياه لو حتي وانت بعيد
With him, even if you are far away
الشوق اليك بيزيد وافضل افكر فيك
My longing for you increases and I keep thinking of you
لو اقول عنك كلامي يطول
If I were to speak about you, my words would flow forever,
وافضل سنين وياه همس بغرام انا بيك
And for years, I've whispered in love, it's you I crave.
اكتر من الي انا بحلم بيه
More than what I even dare to dream,
مش قادرة اخبي انا تاني علية
I can't hide it any longer, not from him again.
دانا من اول ماقبلت عنية نداني
From the moment I looked into your eyes, you called to me,
حبيبي معاك
My darling, I'm with you,
حياتي وعمري الي انا عيشاه
You are my life and my years that I'm living,
واجمل واصعب قولة اه
And the most beautiful yet difficult word is 'ah',
يسبني واحس ان انا وياه ثواني
He leaves me, yet I feel that I'm with him for just seconds,
مش قادرة انا اخبي تاني علية
I can't hide it any longer, not from him again.
حبيبي معاك
My love, with you
حياتي وعمري الي انا عيشاه
My life and the years I live
واجمل واصعب قولة اه
And the sweetest, hardest word is 'oh'
يسبني واحس ان انا وياه ثواني
He leaves me, and I feel that I’m seconds away from him
