Lyrics Nari by Ahmed Sattar
Phonetic Lyrics
Weshloon a7ebek a7ob bla edrak
Law beek akbar 3ab athal ahwak
Yal makoo gheyrak bel galeb
Sadek abad la fogak wa jawak
Yal makoo gheyrak bel galeb
Sadek abad la fogak wa jawak
Yabe, yabu 3ayoon jedhaaba
Idha bghayri ashim 3atrak
A7arge how thyabe
Yabe, wallah w rasla w ktabe
A7ebak le akhir al meshwar
Le7ad al mowt w asbaba
Yabe, yabu 3ayoon jedhaaba
Idha bgheyri ashim 3atrak
A7arge how thyabe
Al 7ob mala moda wala 3amor weyak
Wala te3tagid fad yom amel w ansak
Maqsoom elly nebqa sawa
Mathil el hawa ma agdar bleyak
Nari, je3al ma tentefi nari
W a7ebak ghasb 3an galbi
W athal as-harlik ejbari
Bali, abad la tgheb 3an bali
Tob broo7i tob bil 3ayn
Thal dawakhni yal ghali
Yabe, yabu 3ayoon jedhaaba
Idha bgheyri ashim 3atrak
A7arge how thyabe (2x)
English Translation
How can I love you without comprehension
Even with your biggest flaw, I still adore you
You who has no other in my heart
Truly, there’s no one above or beside you
Oh dear
Oh you with the alluring eyes
If I smell your perfume on another
I’ll burn him and his clothes
Oh dear
I swear by God, His messenger and His book
I’ll love you till the end of the journey
Until death and its causes
Love has no duration nor age with you
Don’t think that one day I’ll get bored and forget you
It’s destined for us to stay together
Like the air, I can’t be without you
My fire
May my fire never extinguish
I love you against my heart’s will
And I’m forced to stay up for you
My mind
Never leave my mind
Settle in my soul, settle in my eye
Keep making me dizzy, my precious one
Arabic Lyrics
وشلون احبك احب بلا ادراك
لو بيك اكبر عيب اضل اهواك
يالماكو غيرك بالگلب
صدك ابد لا فوگك وجواك
يابه
يابو عيون جذابه
اذا بغيري اشم عطرك
احرگة هو وثيابه
يابه
والله ورسله وكتابه
احبك لأخر المشور
لحد الموت واسبابه
الحب ماله مده ولا عمر وياك
ولا تعتقد فد يوم امل وانساك
مقسوم الي نبقى سوى
مثل الهوى ما اگدر بلياك
ناري
جعل ماتنطفي ناري
واحبك غصب عن گلبي
واضل اسهرلك اجباري
بالي
ابد لتغيب عن بالي
طب بروحي طب بالعين
ضل دوخني يالغالي
