بالقلوب أشواق [Belqloob Ashwaq] [English translation]

We departed each other but we left longings (nostalgia) in hearts

Our beautiful nights calling us in a day when we feel extreme thirst

We reached the extreme limits of departure which is really departure

The misfortunes of time how it leaded us to our exile

Embrace us with craving for the chest of this life is so narrow on us

O’ life make your chest wider for us (give us some space), don’t abandon us

Our love is hard (tough) with long days and life stealing us (life is so short)

And I don’t wish for life to lead us to departure

The clouds of tears if it would rain in my eyes and wash the irises

It drove back every time by the precious pride

If age would wither and years topple like leaves

I have a forehead that will not submit only to the face of our creator

I folded the heart by my hands and I grabbed it from the necks

We inherited pride and we are not raised according to humiliation

I don’t want you to challenge the highness of who is living deep

You see you would loss alone as if we never made peace!

I don’t want you to challenge the highness of who is living deep

You see you would loss alone as if we never made peace!

Yes, I confess to you by my passion and the increased longings

But my pride (dignity) is an inheritance, I inherited from our families

We departed each other but we left longings (nostalgia) in the hearts

Our beautiful nights calling us in a day when we feel extreme thirst

We reached the extreme limits of departure which is really departure

The misfortunes of time how it leaded us to our exile
