Translation of the song يا بتفكر يا بتحس artist Sherine Abdel-Wahab

القناعة

Contentment

كنز لَـ يلّي اقتنع

Is a treasure to those who are content

بس نحنا

But we

مركبين عَ طمع

Are used to greed

عم جرّب حِبّ ووقف

I'm trying to stop and love

أنا عم جرّب مش عم أعرف

I'm trying, but I can't

عم جرّب إلحق عقلي

I am trying to keep up with my mind

والمنطق شو بيقلي

And what logic says

عم جرّب مش عم أعرف

I'm trying, but I can't

يا بتفكرّ يا بتحس

Either you think or feel

لا ما فيك توقف بالنص

You can't stop at the middle

ولا فيك تاخد كلشي

And you can't take everything

نقِّي واحد مننّ بس

Chose only one of them

يا بتفكرّ يا بتحسّ

Either you think or feel

أيّ شخص عنده نقص

Anyone has shortages

لو قد ما ببيّن كامل

Even if they look complete

إتأكد بدّه إشيا كتير

Be sure that they want many things

عندك ياها ومش سائل

That you have, but they don't ask

الدنيا ما بتكمل مع حدا

Life is not complete with anybody

شو نحنا ما منستاهل؟

Aren't we worthy?

بس أوقات بتظلمنا

It sometimes oppresses us

عم يطلع ظلما عادل

However, its oppression is sometimes justice
