English Translation
Oh, oh, for the stolen years
From me in her love, for nothing, oh
Beauty betrayed me and the heart carried
Pain that’s spoken, I wish she forgets it, she hurt it
Why did she betray? What did she see in me?
Let her say what she saw
I gave her goodness all my life
And this is even her confession
Easily, I gave her my life and she sold it
I gave her my secret and she spread it
And she revealed what was inside her intentions
Oh, for the time that passed between false oaths
And words she said and cancelled
And from the pain comes knowledge
The final lesson in my story with her is a tragedy
Why did she betray? What did she see in me?
Let her say what she saw
I gave her goodness all my life
And this is even her confession
Easily, I gave her my life and she sold it
I gave her my secret and she spread it
And she revealed what was inside her intentions
Arabic lyrics
ياه، ياه ع السنين المسروقين
مني في هواه ع الفاضي ياه
خاني الجمال والقلب شال
أوجاع تقال ويا ريت ينساه، ده أذاه
ياه، ياه ع السنين المسروقين
مني في هواه ع الفاضي ياه
خاني الجمال والقلب شال
أوجاع تقال ويا ريت ينساه، ده أذاه
خان ليه؟ شاف إيه مني؟
ما يقول اللي شافه
بديه خير طول عمري
وكمان ده إعترافه
بسهولة، إديته عمري وباعه
إديته سري وذاعه
وكشفلي إيه جواه في نواياه
خان ليه؟ شاف إيه مني؟
ما يقول اللي شافه
بديه خير طول عمري
وكمان ده إعترافه
بسهولة، إديته عمري وباعه
إديته سري وذاعه
وكشفلي إيه جواه في نواياه
ياه على وقت فات بين حلفانات
باطلة وكلام قاله ولغاه
ومن الآلام يجي العلام
درس الختام في حكايتي معاه مأساة
ياه على وقت فات بين حلفانات
باطلة وكلام قاله ولغاه
ومن الآلام يجي العلام
درس الختام في حكايتي معاه مأساة
خان ليه؟ شاف إيه مني؟
ما يقول اللي شافه
بديه خير طول عمري
وكمان ده إعترافه
بسهولة، إديته عمري وباعه
إديته سري وذاعه
وكشفلي إيه جواه في نواياه
خان ليه؟ شاف إيه مني؟
ما يقول اللي شافه
بديه خير طول عمري
وكمان ده إعترافه
بسهولة، إديته عمري وباعه
إديته سري وذاعه
وكشفلي إيه جواه في نواياه
