هذا الي سيف نفسه
He who is too full of himself
ماشي ولا معبرني
walking and not noticing me
يتلفت هنا وهناك
He looks here and there
ولا كنه شايفني
as if he doesn’t see me
والله لا أوريكم فيه
I swear I’ll show you people
والله لا أنا ما أخليه
no, I swear I won’t leave him in peace
مو هو العب وياي
Wasn’t he the one who played with me?
خلوه يتحملني
let him tolerate me!
نسي ليالي بيروت
He forgot the nights in Beirut (Lebanon)
لما قالي بحبك موت
When he told me “I love you to death”
وهلأ جنبي عم بيفوت
And now he passes by me
ولا كنه شايفني
as if he doesn’t see me
ولما التقيته بجده
And when I meet him in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia)
شايل لي بايده وردة
he carries a flower in his hand
يبغاني ابكي عنده
He wants me to stay with him
يحلف ولا يفرقتني
he is swearing he won’t part from me
والله أنا لا أوريكم فيه
I swear I’ll show you people
والله لا أنا ما أخليه
no, I swear I won’t leave him in peace
مو هو العب وياي
Wasn’t he the one who played with me?
خلوه يتحملني
let him tolerate me!
في القاهرة الكرنيش
In Cairo (Egypt) on the sea
قلي مين غيرك ما أقدر أعيش
he told me “I cant live without you”
دلوقتي ما بيعرفنيش
And now he doesn’t know me
ولا كنه شايفني
as if he doesn’t see me
وأول لقا في الكويت
The first meeting in Kuwait
آمرني قلبي وحبيت
my heart ordered me and I loved
والحين يوم أنا جيت
And now when I came
ولا كنه شايفني
It’s as if he doesn’t see me
والله أنا لا أوريكم فيه
I swear I’ll show you people
والله لا أنا ما أخلي
no, I swear I won’t leave him in peace
مو هو لعب وياي
Wasn’t he the one who played with me?
خلوه يتحملني
let him tolerate me!
في المغرب كان معايه
In Morocco he was with me
عشنا بالحب حكايه
we lived a love story
مو باغوا داب حكايه
Now after that tale
ولا كنه شايفتني
It’s as if he doesn’t see me
وينه كلامه بدبي
Where are his words in Dubai (the Emirates)
غالي عندي وأغلى شي
“precious to me, the most precious thing”
والحين مايرمسني
Now after that tale
ولا كنه شايفني
It’s as if he doesn’t see me
والله أنا لا أوريكم فيه
I swear I’ll show you people
والله لا أنا ما أخلي
no, I swear I won’t leave him in peace
مو هو العب وياي
Wasn’t he the one who played with me?
خلوه يتحملني
let him tolerate me!
