مكسوف وتداري وأنا قايدة ناري
I'm shy and hiding it while I lead my fire,
قرب وأنا شاري، يا أنت، أنا والحب وبس
Come closer, I'm buying, oh you, just me and love,
ياما حكايات قالوهالنا زمان كان حب وكان
So many tales were told to us back in the days when love was real,
لكن اللي في قلبي ولا مرة اتحس
But what’s in my heart has never been felt,
آه مكسوف وتداري وأنا قايدة ناري
Ah, I'm shy and hiding it while I lead my fire,
قرب وأنا شاري، يا أنت، أنا والحب وبس
Come closer, I'm buying, oh you, just me and love,
ياما حكايات قالوهالنا زمان كان حب وكان
So many tales were told to us back in the days when love was real,
لكن اللي في قلبي ولا مرة اتحس
But what’s in my heart has never been felt,
تايه من نفسي وضعت كتير ولقيتك أنت
Lost from myself, I wandered a lot, but I found you,
شايف الدنيا بحالها بكوم والتاني أنت
I see the whole world piled up and you stand apart.
ما بقيتش أتحمل وجع ولوم داويني أنت
I can't bear the pain and blame anymore, heal me, it's you.
غرقان يا حبيبي ماليش في العوم رسيني أنت
I'm drowning, my love, I can't swim, anchor me, it's you.
تايه من نفسي وضعت كتير ولقيتك أنت
Lost from myself, I've been through a lot, but I found you.
شايف الدنيا بحالها في كوم والتاني أنت
I see the world in one pile, and in another, there's you.
ما بقيتش أتحمل وجع ولوم داويني أنت
I can't bear the pain and blame anymore, heal me, it's you.
غرقان يا حبيبي ماليش في العوم رسيني أنت
I'm drowning, my love, I can't swim, anchor me, it's you.
مكسوف وتداري وأنا قايدة ناري
I'm shy and hiding, while I'm leading my fire.
قرب وأنا شاري، يا أنت، أنا والحب وبس
Come close, I'm buying, oh you, just me and love.
ياما حكايات قالوهالنا زمان كان حب وكان
So many tales that were told to us long ago, it was love, it was.
لكن اللي في قلبي ولا مرة اتحس
But what's in my heart has never been felt.
"الله عليك، يا عمري"
Oh God, how I adore you, my love
يا نصي التاني، أبو ضحكة رماني
Oh, my other half, the one with a smile that captured me
من حبه سقاني وضحكلي زماني وبقلبي حس
From his love, he quenched my thirst and brightened my days, I feel it in my heart
الدنيا تلاقي، غني يا أشواقي
The world is a meeting, sing, oh my longings
زيك ما بلاقي وعمري الباقي معك أنت وبس
I can't find anyone like you, and the rest of my days are with you and only you
تايه من نفسي وضعت كتير ولقيتك أنت
Lost from myself, I've wandered a lot, and I found you
شايف الدنيا بحالها في كوم والتاني أنت
I see the world as one thing, and you are the other
ما بقيتش أتحمل وجع ولوم داويني أنت
I can't bear the pain and blame anymore, heal me, it's you
غرقان يا حبيبي ماليش في العوم رسيني أنت
I'm drowning, oh my love, I can't swim, anchor me, it's you
تايه من نفسي وضعت كتير ولقيتك أنت
Lost from myself, I've wandered a lot, and I found you
شايف الدنيا بحالها في كوم والتاني أنت
I see the world in piles, and then there's you
ما بقيتش أتحمل وجع ولوم داويني أنت
I can’t bear the pain and blame anymore, heal me, it’s you
غرقان يا حبيبي ماليش في العوم رسيني أنت
I'm drowning, my love, I don’t know how to swim, save me, it’s you
مكسوف وتداري وأنا قايدة ناري
Embarrassed and hiding, while I’m igniting my fire
قرب وأنا شاري، يا أنت، أنا والحب وبس
Come closer, and I’ll chase after you, oh it’s you, just me and love
ياما حكايات قالوهالنا زمان كان حب وكان
So many stories they told us back then, it was love, it was
لكن اللي في قلبي ولا مرة اتحس
But what’s in my heart has never been felt
