Translation of the song دارت قلوبنا artist Amr Diab

دارت قلوبنا

Our hearts turned

و لفت من عذاب لعذاب

and churned, from a torture to another

و منين ما نضحك

And the moment we smile

نلاقي الحزن عالأبواب

we find sadness knocking our door

عدينا نهر الحنين

We've crossed the river of longing

و رجعنا ليه عطشانين؟

And yet why have we returned still thirsty?

حبينا اه

We've loved, oh

بس اه

But, oh

عالفرح مش قادرين

We are incapable of being happy

و حلمنا اه

And we've dreamt, oh

بس اه

But, oh

ماللي انكتب عالجبين

How harsh is fate1

مشوار عجيب من اوله

It's a bizarre journey since its start

مكتوب علينا نكمله

And it's our fate to continue it

وعشان يعيش الورد

And for the roses to live

لازم اى شوك نتحمله

we must withstand any thorns
