Translation of the song الغربة artist Ahlam
الغربة
Foreignness
ألا يا غربة اللهفة
Oh how lonely it feels when you're longing so much
ألا يا لهفة الغربة
Oh this foreignness making us always in thirst (for homeland)
تبعدنا تقربنا
It takes us away from it, then it brings us closer
ويبقى الشوق يحيينا
But this thirst will always make us feel alive
مصير الحي يتلاقى
We'll finally meet again
ما دام الروح تشتاقه
As long as our souls are longing for each other
مصير اللي جمح يرجع
At the end, whoever rebelled
على اللي به تربينا
Will return back the right path, as he have been raised
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
From home
From home
But your stitch in my heart must go
But your stitch in my heart must go
Come back to your love
Come back to your love
To your home
To your home
تفرقنا كثير أسباب
A lot of issues out there, that take us apart from each other
كذا الدنيا ندق أبواب
Life is just like that, it makes you lost, to try different things
وحتى الحب يخطفنا
Then love knocks our door
ينسّينا ويشقينا
And make us forget all the sorrow we had before, but love comes with its sweet troubles too
ألا يا دار ما ننسى
Oh my country, we'll never forget you
ومهما هالزمن يقسى
No matter how life gets hard on us
أصلنا ثابت وباقي
We'll never forget our origin, where we came from
في نبض الروح يروينا
It 1will always be in our heart, irrigating our souls
