وحدن lyrics with English translation

وحدن بيبقوا متل زهر البيلسان

They remain like the elderflower blooms,

وحدهن بيقطفوا اوراق الزمان

They alone gather the leaves of time.

بيسكروا الغابي

They close the forest's embrace,

بيضلهن متل الشتي يدقوا على ابوابي، على ابوابي

They keep knocking on my doors, like the rain on my doors.

يا زمان

Oh, time,

يا عشب داشر فوق هالحيطان

Oh, wild grass growing on these walls.

ضويت ورد الليل ع كتابي

I illuminated the night flowers on my book.

برج الحمام مسور وعالي

The dove tower is enclosed and tall,

هج الحمام بقيت لحالي، لحالي

The dove's flight left me all alone, all alone.

يا ناطرين التلج ما عاد بدكن ترجعوا

Oh, you waiting for the snow, no more do you wish to return.

صرخ عليهن بالشتي يا ديب بلكي بيسمعوا

He shouted at them in the rain, oh wolf, maybe they'll listen

وحدن بيبقوا متل هالغيم العتيق

They remain like this ancient cloud

وحدهن وجوهن وعتم الطريق

All alone, their faces and the darkness of the road

عم يقطعوا الغابي

They’re cutting through the woods

وبإيدهن متل الشتي يدقوا البكي

And in their hands, like the rain, they knock on the sorrow

وهني على ابوابي

And they are at my doorsteps

يا زمان

Oh time

من عمر فيي العشب عالحيطان

Since my age, the grass has climbed the walls

من قبل ما صار الشجر عالي

Before the trees grew tall

ضوي قناديل وأنطر صحابي

Light the lanterns and wait for my friends

مرقوا فلوا بقيت ع بابي لحالي

They passed by, now I’m alone at my door.

يا رايحين والتلج ما عاد بدكن ترجعوا

Oh you who are leaving, and the snow no longer wants you to return.

صرخ عليهن بالشتي يا ديب بلكي بيسمعوا، آه

I shouted to them in the winter, oh wolf, maybe they'll hear me, ah.

يا رايحين والتلج ما عاد بدكن ترجعوا

Oh you who are leaving, and the snow no longer wants you to return.

صرخ عليهن بالشتي يا ديب بلكي بيسمعوا

I shouted to them in the winter, oh wolf, maybe they'll hear me.
