Amr Diab - The Perfect Solution

Image
Updated Amr Diab. This is one of his earlier songs, that features a delicious keyboard solo. Amr Diab - The Perfect Solution The perfect solution Either we live life together Or I stay right where I am O darling so long as you are away I live in the world alone I became tired of the feelings with the pain And my heart which is that which is so wronged And every day my darling I know nothing but sighing I lived years of my life in your abscence While my heart is sad I tired of the sadness all of it And my life that I lived at one time I know nothing but sighing Either we live life together Or I stay right where I am Without you I have seen so much And I run before them so much And I am fine with the course of my destiny And the live that is going to be wasted And every day my darling I know nothing but sighing Either we live life together Or I stay right where I am عمرو دياب - ملهاش حل تاني ملهاش حل تاني يا نعيش الحياه انا وانت يا وقفت في مكاني يا حبيبى طول ما انت بعيد انا عايش في الدن...

Najwa Karam - Garden Rosesنجوى كرم - ورود الدارWrood al-Dar

Image
The speech in this song is highly colloquial, and some of the versions of these lyrics online seem to have a few mistakes. I've done my best to get the precise pronunciation in Arabic; the meaning in English should be more or less correct. Najwa Karam - Garden Roses The fire of love is burning me I'm thirsty And the bitterness of separation No longer waters me My heart is injured My heart is injured My darling is the lone cure that heals me from my ahhhs (of sorrow) Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Don't cry my garden roses Continue singing in his absence And when he returns from the journey Be there to decorate his door I light candles for you daily And sit by your side praying for you I convey the ah (of sorrow) from my heart to tell you about my dreams If only you could see my eyes If only you could see my eyes My eyes that have melted in your absence Oh who will carry me to you So I can tell you please hold me And you would hold like this and ask me Oh my life, do you love me?...

Nawal al-Zoghbi - Don't You Ever Get Tired?نوال الزغبي - ما بتتعب دخلك؟Ma Btataab Dakhlek

Image
An old but classic Nawal song. Nawal al-Zoghbi - Don't You Ever Get Tired? Everytime we meet he starts to speak And ask me without hearing an answer Instead of saying to me "My dear, what's wrong?" He passes the whole time Nagging and nagging Don't you ever get tired jeez? You nag me until the sun comes up I'll say some nice word to you To change this atmosphere a little Listen to me without nagging me Let's be lovers Tell me I love you I love you the more the moon sets Owf! Owf! Let us sing my darling until the sun comes up That's enough quit nagging me and telling me stuff And making me mad and then trying to make me feel better When you get nervous and jealous Owf! Owf! Let us sing my darling until the sun comes up نوال الزغبي - ما بتتعب دخلك؟ كلّ مرّة منلتقي بيبدأ الحكي و بيصير يسألني و لا بيسمع جواب و بدال ما يقلّي يا حلوة شو بكي؟ بيمضى الوقت كلّو عتاب بعتاب ما بتتعب دخلك و لو؟ تعاتبني لطلوع الضو إحكيلك شي كلمه حلوه تشويّ نغيّر هالجو سمّعني غي...

Updated media and translation Samira Said - It's Over We're through, what do you want from me? Get away from me Try to understand the past is over Forget it We're through, what brought you here again? Put your mind at ease and forget me I don't want you anymore You say "you were once in love with me" Quite frankly, I don't remember you anymore (meaning she no longer loves him) So what are you talking about? We're through, you've missed you chance Go ahead and dream if you want What do you want me to do for you? Oh god, you're begging me And you're dreaming of me Why?? No, calm down a little This is your imagination running wild Don't let it even cross your mind that I might be returning to you Look at yourself Your talk will do no good You are the one who started this separation So it's normal that I am being cruel to you now It's all nothing to me My eyes see you and don't miss you سميرة سعيد - ما خلاص ما خلاص عايز ايه منى...

Nawal al-Zoghbi - All My Lifeنوال الزغبي - طول عمريToul Omry

Image
Updated media and translation This song was obviously made during the Latin music craze that brought us Ricky Martin. Nawal's videos tend to emulate whatever is en vogue in pop like that. Nawal al-Zoghbi - All My Life All my life I dream, my precious You are the dream of my nights From a glance I changed myself And my heart and my soul are with you I swear to God My life... So long as I'm with you my heart will be full of joy And my eyes...Even if you're far will see you I swear to God I loved you at first sight Reassure me, be with me You are the most beautiful story Our love is without end Cmon, let's forget that which has past together نوال الزغبي - طول عمري طول عمري بحلم ياغالي إن انت حلم الليالي من نظرة غيرت حالي و قلبي و روحي معاك و الله حياتي.. طول مانا وياك ليلاتي.. فرح قلبي معاك و عيني.. لو بعيد شايفاك عشقتك والله من طلة طمني خليك معايا يالي انت أجمل حكاية ده هوانا من غير نهاية ويلا تعالا ننسى اللي فات يلا

Updated media and translation Nawal al-Zoghbi - They've Always Said It They've always said it Go ahead let em say it That our love is like this and our love is like that And we've spread our passion everywhere Let em repeat it More and more This is this is what I feel and what I'm going through My love, you guys, is better than a dream Get close to my heart that's always sang for you That dreams of being with you And keeps on hoping My soul my life I'm melting in your love You and me are one I'm part of you And my love is yours It's hell for me to wait like this, my darling, when I have this in my heart My feelings could fill this entire world Come see me Missing you has melted me and tortured me And I'm still just as confused نوال الزغبي - ياما قالوا ياما قالوا ما يقولوا حبينا كده وهوينا كده و ملينا الدنيا غرام في غرام ما يعيدوا و يزيدوا ده اللي انا حاساه و اللي انا عيشاه في الحب يا ناس ولافي الاحلام قرب من قلبي اللي عشانك ياما غنى و غنى و بيحلم بلق...

Updated media and translation Sounds like a love song, but in the video its all about him and his kid. Wael Kfoury - Get Close to Me Darling get close to me So my arms can hold you You know how much I love you And how precious you are to me Darling may you be by my side I want nothing but your eyes I'm afraid of being my myself If you're away from me for a little How I love you when you speak While you draw a smile on your lips How I love you when you cry and complain When I'm holding you with me Darling you are the most wonderful person My life is more wonderful with you Your aroma your charm Your voice your image Have become part of me, inside me Oh sweetheart reassure me that you won't leave me You are my love and the trembling of my heart And you are the light of my eyes Oh darling you are precious You are the moon of the nights Stay beside me and put my mind at ease And hold me tenderly وائل كفوري - قرب ليا يا حبيبي قرب ليّ تضمك بايدي انت بتعرف انا شو بحبك وقديش...

Nancy Ajram - Take Your Eyes Off Meنانسي عجرم - شيل عيونك عنيSheel Oyoonak Anni

Image
Updated media and translation This is little Nancy's first big song when she was fifteen or something. The video starts with a group of very young girls trying to avoid the gaze of what appears to be the sight of a sniper rifle (we're later relieved to find that in fact it is just a creepy guy watching Nancy on a security camera). Although she initially tries to shake the lurid gaze, she finally succumbs and says "Look at me, I wanna sing." And a star was born Nancy Ajram - Take Your Eyes Off Me Take your eyes off me Leave me along I wanna sing My heart is still little You're confusing me One glance from you drives me crazy One glance from you drives me crazy Oh... drives me crazy Your glances are not calm They want, but you don't know what you want Tell them they better not cross the line Tell them they better not cross the line Get away from me, I wanna sing Get away from me, I wanna sing Oh... I wanna sing Your eyes' glances are dangerous And the most ...

Nawal al-Zoghbi - Strange Way of Thinkingنوال الزغبي - غريب الراي

Image
Updated media and translation I apologize for the video, you'll have to skip through the interview at the beginning to get to the song. It's the writer of the song, and he's talking about how Nawal wanted to make a song in the Gulf dialect and he wrote it etc. Nawal al-Zoghbi - Strange Way of Thinking You are the cause of my misfortunes, my confusion and my misery Love is for you alone And you have a strange way of thinking You made me live in confusion And with worry and jelousy You hurt my feelings, try being faithful with me You lighted a fire in me And you never cared Have mercy if for once And win, my darling, my satisfaction Where has loyalty gone? Its address is lost Your injustice to me was enough to mess up my world Oh the confusion of my eyes The color of sadness is my color My wounds are from you My estrangement and my misfortune My love, help me Make a pact with me to love Who do I complain to besides you? You're my only wish and desire نوال الزغبي - غريب ا...

Updated media and lyrics Ragheb Alama - Make Me Forget the World Make me forget the world Make me forget the world Melt me darling And make me tell you the most beautiful things If there were thousand worlds If there were thousand worlds It wouldn't be possible for me to find a love like this If I tell you I love you The word love would be nothing compared to how I feel for you If I'm away from you for a second I return to, longing for your eyes Hold me, stay here with me Cmon let's live the most beautiful days It was the most beautiful day in my life The day I met you, my life I can't go on without you Without even thinking I was melting in your love You took me from everyone I felt the most beautiful feelings And I forgot the world with you darling Ah I carry you inside me And this world as my witness I'm by your side and I love you I could never forget you darling I hope the years go on And I stay loving you all the way Oh how I've dreamed to be with yo...

Updated media and translation From the album Tab Leh (طب ليه) Ragheb Alama - Don't Tell Me Later I love you Don't tell me later Later doesn't matter to me I want you to forget And for me to forget the universe So long as our two hearts are united I love you Don't tell me later The letters of your name spell me I'm a word in your songs I love you and who can say I'm lying? So long as my heart recognizes you Days pass we don't know how many As if our lifetime was just two hours And besides you who understands me From the look in your eyes And besides you who accepts me And can put up with my madness راغب علامة - ما تقوليش بعدين بحبك متقوليش بعدين انا ميهمنيش بعدين بحبك تنسى وانسى الكون مادام اتوحدوا القلبين بحبك متقوليش بعدين حروف اسمك بتكتبنى اكون كلمة فى اغانيكى بحبك ومين يكدبنى مادام قلبى اعترف بيكى تفوت ايام ما نعرف كام كأن العمر كان ساعتين ومين غيرك بيفهمنى من النظرة اللى فعيونى ومين غيرك بيقبلنى ويتحملنى بجنونى

Darine - Yeah Yeah yeah sing with me Come on come on sing with me Yeah yeah sing with me Come on come on sing with me Where do I wanna go I don't want anything but peace and quiet You're calling me all day Waiting by the phone There's nothing better than this life There isn't any information I remember every day I was once young Don't let anyone be upset Have a good time, we're all human Descend upon the sea of desire Go ahead forget your troubles We'll dance to music Sing with me cmon Let me show you There is no more beautiful sun-color Shake shake one two Shake shake one two Left right one two Left right one two Up down tanananana Up down tanananana دارين - ايوه ايوة ايوة غنوا معى هلا هلا غنوا معى ايوة ايوة غنوا معى هلا هلا غنوا معى وين انا بدى اروح ما بدى شىء بس هدوء كلمونى كل يوم استنوا على التليفون ما فى احلى من الحياة ما فى اى معلومات اتذكر كل الايام كنت صغيرة لما كان متخلي حدا زعلان انبسطوا كلنا ا...

Updated media and translation Nancy Ajram - Say it Again Say it again Who do you mean, me? Our love, our passion Is that what you're talking about Oh you forget our love and take with you our nights, our years, and our lives It's me who was faithful to you, fell in love and adored you Our love was lost by your hands What kind of lover are you? Is this your love? Wake up Do you think that with one word from you That's it I'll forgive you and I'll forget right away? For passion, it's still early for you And I'll never think of you again I was by your side and your heart left me Looks like your love was just talk نانسي عجرم - قول تاني كده قول تاني كده مين تقصد انا؟ حبنا عشقنا هو انت بتتكلم عننا ياناسي هواك وواخد معاك ليالي وسنين عمرنا ده انا اللي اشتريت ودوبت وهويت وضاع من ايديك حبنا انت مين ف الهوي وفي الشوق هو انت حبك ده ايه ماتفوق ولا انت فكرك بكلمه منك خلاص حسامحك وحنسي قوام في الغرام لسه بدري عليك ولاعمري تاني حفكر فيك ده انا كنت جنبك وسابني قلبك اتاري حب...

Ragheb Alama - My Great Love You are my great love The first and last No one but you my darling My heart is captive to your love I adore the light of your eyes Adoring its passion and magic My soul is in your hands And my life is your property I love you so much So often I've been sleepless at night With you on my mind and imagination As I hope for a glance from you And wait for a word from you Your love, my darling, taught me the beautiful meaning of patience Ask my heart and my eyes They will tell you about me I can't live apart from you And I don't have anything in the world apart from you It's impossible darling For my heart to soften towards anyone but you راغب علامة - الحب الكبير انت الحب الكبير الاول و الاخير و لا غيرك يا حبيبي قلبي لهواه أسير انا عاشق نور عينيك عاشق غرامها و سحرها انا روحي ما بين ايديك و حياتي انت ملكتها...
