وش بقى فيني من أحلام السنين
Wish baqa feeni min ahlam al-sineen
What is left in me from the dreams of the years?
غير قلبٍ كل ما يبرى انكسر
Ghair qalb'in kull ma yabrah inkasar
Other than a heart that breaks every time it heals.
كنت أحسب إن الزمن لو هو حزين
Kunt ahseb inna al-zaman law howa hazeen
I used to think that even if time was sad,
لا خذلني، باكرٍ يعطيني جبر
La khathalani, bakir'in ya'teeni jabr
If it let me down, tomorrow it would compensate me.
أثر بعض الجرح ما تبرى سنين
Athar ba'dh al-jurh ma tabra sineen
But some wounds don't heal for years,
وأثر بعض الناس ما ينفع معها عذر
Wa athar ba'dh al-nas ma yanfa' ma'aha 'othr
And some people are not helped by excuses.
وأثرنا نكبر، ولا زلنا حزين
Wa atharna nakbar, wa la zalna hazeen
And we grow older, but we are still sad,
نضحك بوجه الوقت والضيقة تستعر
Nadhhak biwajh al-waqt wal-dheeqa tasta'er
We smile in the face of time while distress rages.
أنا ما شكيت، ولا مدّيت إيدي
Ana ma shakayt, wa la maddayt eedi
I didn't complain, nor did I extend my hand,
ولا انتظرت إن البشر ترحم حالي
Wa la intadhart inna al-bashar tarham hali
Nor did I wait for people to pity my condition.
لكن تعبت أكون أنا عوني وسندي
Lakin ta'ebt akoun ana 'awni wa sanadi
But I got tired of being my own helper and support,
وأضمّ جرحي لا بغى يفضح سؤالي
Wa adhomm jurhi la bagha yafdhah su'ali
And hiding my wound lest it reveal my question.
يا كثر ما ودّعت شيٍ كنت أبيه
Ya kathr ma wadda't shay'in kunt abeih
How many times have I bid farewell to something I wanted,
ويا كثر ما أخفيت دمعاتي بصدري
Wa ya kathr ma akhfayt dam'ati bi-sadri
And how many times have I hidden my tears in my chest.
حتى الأمل لا مرّني، قلت: الله يحييه
Hatta al-amal la marrani, qult: Allah yuhyeih
Even when hope passed by me, I said: 'May God keep it alive',
وأخاف أفرح، ثم يرجع يكسر بخاطري
Wa akhaf afrah, thumma yarja' yaksir bi-khatiri
And I fear rejoicing, then it returns to break my heart.
يا ليل، أنا ما عاد فيني حيل أخبّي
Ya layl, ana ma 'ad feeni hayl akhabbi
Oh night, I no longer have the strength to hide
كل ما فيني من أوجاع السنين
Kull ma feeni min awja' al-sineen
All the pains of the years within me.
إن سألني الوقت عن حالي وذنبي
In sa'alani al-waqt 'an hali wa dhanbi
If time asks me about my condition and my sin,
قل له: اللي صار، ما هو بالهين
Qul lah: 'Alladhi sar, ma huwa bil-hayyin'
Tell it: 'What happened is not easy.'
أنا عزيز النفس، لكن وش ذنبي؟
Ana 'azeez al-nafs, lakin wish dhanbi?
I am noble in spirit, but what is my sin?
إن كان قلبي من عنا الدنيا حزين
In kan qalbi min 'ana al-dunya hazeen
If my heart is sad from the troubles of the world.
ما طلبت إلا حياةٍ تحتويني
Ma talabt illa hayat'in tahtawini
I only asked for a life that embraces me,
ولا لقيت إلا الصبر طول السنين
Wa la laqayt illa al-sabr tool al-sineen
But I found nothing but patience throughout the years.
ما عاد أبي أرجع لوقتٍ راح منّي
Ma 'ad abi arja' li-waqt'in rah minni
I no longer want to return to a time that has passed me by,
ولا أبي أعاتب بشر ما عاد تعنيه
Wa la abi a'ateb bashar ma 'ad ta'neeh
Nor do I want to blame people who no longer care.
لكن بقايا الذكريات تمرّ فنّي
Lakin baqaya al-dhikrayat tamurr fanni
But the remnants of memories pass through me,
وألقى شعورٍ كنت أحسب إني نسيته
Wa alqa shu'oor'in kunt ahseb inni naseetoh
And I find a feeling I thought I had forgotten.
بعض الليالي لا سكن صوت المدينة
Ba'dh al-layali la sakan sawt al-madeena
Some nights when the city's voice settles,
أسمع صدى عمري وأسأل: وين أنا؟
Asma' sada 'umri wa as'al: 'Wayn ana?'
I hear the echo of my life and ask: 'Where am I?'
وأقول يمكن هذي الدنيا بطبيعة
Wa aqool yumkin hadhihi al-dunya bi-tabee'a
And I say perhaps this is the nature of the world,
تعطيك حلم، وتاخذ أغلى ما تمنى
Ta'teek hilm, wa ta'khudh aghla ma tamanna
It gives you a dream, and takes away what you most desire.
يا ربّ، إن ضاقت عليّ الأرض مرّه
Ya Rabb, in dhaqat 'alayya al-ard marra
Oh Lord, if the earth ever constricts around me,
وسّع عليّ من الرضا بابٍ كبير
Wassi' 'alayya min al-rida bab'in kabeer
Widen for me a large door of contentment.
ما عاد أبي من هالحياة إلا المسرّه
Ma 'ad abi min hathihi al-hayat illa al-masarra
I no longer want anything from this life but joy,
وقلبٍ ينام وما يصحى على التفكير
Wa qalb'in yanam wa ma yasha 'ala al-tafkeer
And a heart that sleeps and doesn't wake up to overthinking.
Lines explained
“أثر بعض الجرح ما تبرى سنين”
Athar ba'dh al-jurh ma tabra sineen
But some wounds don't heal for years,
This line expresses the enduring nature of some emotional wounds, suggesting that not all pain heals with time, a common sentiment in songs of heartbreak.
“وأخاف أفرح، ثم يرجع يكسر بخاطري”
Wa akhaf afrah, thumma yarja' yaksir bi-khatiri
And I fear rejoicing, then it returns to break my heart.
The singer's fear of happiness, anticipating that joy will inevitably be followed by another disappointment, highlights a deep-seated weariness and pessimism.
“تعطيك حلم، وتاخذ أغلى ما تمنى”
Ta'teek hilm, wa ta'khudh aghla ma tamanna
It gives you a dream, and takes away what you most desire.
This line reflects a philosophical view on life's duality: it grants wishes but also takes away what is most cherished, encapsulating the bittersweet nature of existence.
