قصة ضيعة [Zorba the Greek Mix] [Osset Dayaa] [English translation]
What happened? All keep guessing
Who is wrong? For years
In a sad atmosphere.. for years… after years
What happened to the youngsters who fell and love
And became older
Nostalgia stories… have been going on
For years… after years
This is the story of a small village
Whose people are at odds
In all their night gatherings they must fight
They daily talk about each other
Make up rumors
Maybe out of spite and hatred they fabricate lies
Having worn black clothes too long now they look like fig trees
They turn October air black by just waving !
There is hatred, envy and jealousy
That they grew old sitting by
Each standing holding his weapon
Waiting for a problem to turn up
They neither sleep nor rest
Nor go away
One of them summoned his men
The other stood facing them
Another summoned his workers
And got people to their knees!
People in the neighborhood started screaming
And gathered to see what to do about it
What a night !
Even birds flew away scared!
The night is on fire !
The night is doomed !
I dread what is gonna happen
Fires of the past came back to live
The night is on fire !
Hey people calm down for God's sake !
Let's clear the air and leave the rest to God
Let's hang out tonight together
Forget our hard feelings and get drunk
And dance away
Let's forget and hang out together
Yeah, folks, let's stay up and the moon will hang out with us too
The hearts of two lovers
With yearning eyes
For years nostalgia and longing have bound them
With October breeze for years
The girl and the boy are from different families
Their elders are crazy, upset, fighting and quarreling together
The couple used to meat by the walnut tree
And plan to elope like early dusk birds
But her mom found out about her foolish love
She told the father and you know he is nuts
He locked up his daughter
And his men went and got the boy from his place!
His family found out, came and started banging and smashing everything
Get up let's dance get up
Let the night forget its worries
Hold your hands
Circle around the girl
Come on, it is time for the night out
Let our dance wake up the stars
Let's hang out tonight together
Forget our hard feelings and get drunk
And dance away
My love, we'll stay up together
And the moon will stay up with us
Rejoice!
