اه يادنيا [Ah Ya Donia] [English translation]

Oh world1, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

Oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

This world only respects the one who has money

But the one that needs her2, she humiliates him and tramples him

You see, life is a school that we have taken many lessons in

And this is how life goes, this is how life goes

It is going in reverse for us

Go around with us, oh world. Make us dizzy, oh world

Take us left for a bit, take us right for a bit

Here we are, silent.. oh world

Go around with us, oh world. Swing us around, oh world

You smiled to us, that's ok .. you fooled us, that's ok

Here we are, living.. Here we are

You're making us lost and poor.. You're making us taste bitterness in you

Boy have we grown weary because we are poor, have mercy on us, this is unfair of you

Go around with us, oh world. Make us dizzy, oh world

Take us left for a bit, take us right for a bit

Here we are, living.. oh world

Oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

Oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

You keep crushing us, oh world, and night and day you thrash us

You are even making us live life so meticulously3

Whenever things go well for us and we go forward two steps

You turn around and bring us a thousand steps to the back

Oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

Oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God, oh world, oh God

Go around with us, oh world. Make us dizzy, oh world

Take us left for a bit, take us right for a bit

Here we are, living.. oh world

1. Note: every word "world' in this song can be also interpreted to mean "Life". Egyptian people use one word to convey the two meanings since they overlap.2. her refers to the world here.3. Idiom, the literal translation is: "you are even making us live life by pen and ruler". It means they have to calculate their every move and live in fear.
