كل ما يخاف قلبي من نار الاسيه
Every time my heart fears the flames of sorrow,
واللي شاف نور الغرام يخشى ناره
And those who saw the light of love fear its fire.
والهوى كاس المدام فيه مراره
And love is a cup of wine, full of bitterness.
طمن القلب اللي زاد
Calm the heart that is yearning,
طمن القلب اللي زاد وجده
Calm the heart that is yearning for you, for you.
اللي زاد وجده عليا، عليا
That yearning has grown heavy on me, on me.
يا حبيبي يكفى، يكفى قلبي طول بعادك
Oh my love, enough, enough of my heart's long distance from you.
الحياة فكر وسهاد من غير ودادك ودادك
Life is thought and sleeplessness without your affection, your affection.
من غير ودادك
Without your affection,
الحياة فكر وسهاد من غير ودادك
Life is thought and sleeplessness without your affection.
يا حبيبي يكفى قلبي، قلبي
Oh my beloved, enough for my heart, my heart
يا قلبي طول بعادك
Oh my heart, the length of your absence
إرحم الولهان بحبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick one in his pain of love
إرحم الولهان بحبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick one in his pain of love
واحي أماله بقربك من عيونه
And revive his hopes with your closeness from his eyes
آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه، آه
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
يا حبيبي يكفى قلبي
Oh my beloved, enough for my heart
يكفى قلبي طول بعادك
My heart can't take the length of your absence
يا حبيبي يكفى قلبي
Oh my beloved, my heart can't take it
يكفى قلبي طول بعادك
My heart can't take the length of your absence
الحياة فكر وسهاد فكر وسهاد
Life is thoughts and sleeplessness, thoughts and sleeplessness
الحياة فكر وسهاد فكر وسهاد
Life is thoughts and sleeplessness, thoughts and sleeplessness
من غير ودادك ودادك ودادك
Without your affection, your affection, your affection
من غير ودادك
Without your affection
يكفى يكفى قلبي طول بعادك
Enough, enough, my heart can't take the length of your absence
إرحم الولهان بحبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick, with your love from his sorrows
إرحم الولهان بحبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick, with your love from his sorrows
واحي أماله بقربك من عيونه
Awake his hopes with your presence from his eyes,
يا حبيبي يكفى، يكفى قلبي طول بعادك
Oh my beloved, enough, enough for my heart with your long absence.
إرحم الولهان في حبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick one in your love from his sorrows.
واحي أماله واحي أماله بقربك من عيونه
Awake his hopes, awake his hopes with your presence from his eyes.
إرحم الولهان في حبك من شجونه
Have mercy on the lovesick one in your love from his sorrows.
واحي أماله بقربك من عيونه
Awake his hopes with your presence from his eyes.
تبقى طول العمر أيامه، أيامه هنية
He will cherish his days forever, his days full of joy.
