ISMAK
Introduction (a lot of women chanting):
حبي لك راح يدوم الى الأبد
حرب نخوضها الى يوم الأمد
رحنا لها و ما عدنا سالمين
قلبي خاضها و يعود لك ياسمين
Translation:
My love for you will last forever
A war we fight through until the last day
We went to it and didn’t come back the same (didn’t come back in peace/safety)
My heart fought it and returned to you as a jasmine (the flower)
Verse:
Falling through the depths of the night
To find your way
you behave like an undefined shape
Doing your best to deny
Falling faaaalling.
Mmmmmm
You’re sitting on the throne
Like you own my memories
I miss callin you home
Losing my identity
I’ll never let you go
Mmmmmm
Chorus:
كيف هيك بتروح تروح
انا بنادي اسمك و ما عم شوف
شو بصير بصير
حبي الك غطى على كثير
Translation:
How can you go like this?
I call your name and don’t see
What’s happening
My love for you blinds so many things
Post chorus (whispering part)
عندك مشاكلك، عندك أسرارك
بس أنا بحبك، رغم كل أخبارك
Translation:
You have your problems , you have your secrets,
But I love you, despite all your news
Verse 2:
They say you are to blame
with your pride and glory
Then I defend your name
Telling endless stories
I guess I’ll never know
Mmmmm
