Translation of the song حنينا artist Shatha Hassoun

يا أبو عيون الخضر، يا أبو عيون الخضر

Oh green eyes, green eyes

حنينا حنينا يا ابو عيون الخضر

I miss you, I miss you, green eyes

بعد ماظل صبر

I have no more patience left

حنينا حنينا

I miss you, I miss you

مشتاق إله مشتاق مابيه حيل فراق

I long for him, I long, and I can't handle a separation

غالي عليَ يا ناس وافديه بالعمر

He is worth a lot for me, and I would sacrifice myself for him

حنينا حنينا

I miss him, I miss him

يا ابو عيون الخضر

Oh green eyes

اقره مكاتيبه يغرقني الدمع

I read his letters, and I drown in tears

ويذوب قلبي عليه ذوبان الشمع

My heart starts melting like candles

اتمنى طير الروح

I wish I could let my soul fly

وقبال بابه تنوح

And in front of his house, it bewails

عشرة عمر وياه مو يوم وشهر

A life journey I have been with him, not days or months

حنيت لآيامه وطيبة عشرته

I missed his days, and how good life was with him

ما ظل عقل بالراس والله بغيبته

I have lost my mind since he is gone now

دار الزمان ودار وانقطعت الاخبار

Time has changed, and I lost contact with him

من قلبي تطلع نار من كثر القهر

My heart is on fire, because of my sadness
