[Intro – soft piano and strings]
[Verse 1]
كنت فاكرة إن الصبر بيداوي
Kunt fakra in el sabr beydaawy
I used to think that patience heals
وإن اللي بيحب بيرجع مهما غاب
W in elly beyheb beyerga' mahma ghab
And that whoever loves returns, no matter how long they're gone
سبت قلبي على بابك مستني
Sebt qalbi 'ala babak mestanni
I left my heart at your door, waiting
لحد ما اتعلم يعيش من غير جواب
Lama et'allam ye'eesh men gheir gawwab
Until it learned to live without an answer
بقيت أضحك قدام الناس وأداري
Ba'eet adhak oddam el nas w adari
I started laughing in front of people and hiding
وأنا جوايا حكاية مالهاش كلام
W ana gowaya hekaya malhash kalam
While inside me was a story with no words
كل ليلة أقول بكرة هيتغير
Kol leila aqool bokra hayetghayyar
Every night I'd say, 'Tomorrow it will change'
ألاقي بكرة شبه اللي فات بالتمام
Alaqi bokra shabah elly fat bel tamam
I'd find tomorrow exactly like yesterday
[Pre-Chorus]
ما تقوليش آسف دلوقتي
Ma teqoolish assef delwa'ty
Don't tell me 'sorry' now
الكلمة جت متأخرة كتير
El kelma gat meta'akhara keteer
The word came too late
أنا مش زعلانة منك
Ana mesh za'lana mennak
I'm not upset with you
أنا زعلانة إني صبرت كتير
Ana za'lana enni sabart keteer
I'm upset that I waited too long
[Chorus]
تعبت… ومش عايزة أعاتب
Te'ebt... w mesh 'ayza a'ateb
I'm tired... and I don't want to reproach
ولا عايزة أفتح جرح قديم
Wala 'ayza aftah garh qadeem
Nor do I want to open an old wound
ضيعت سنين وأنا بحارب
Dayya't sneen w ana bahareb
I wasted years fighting
عشان حب كان من الأول يتيم
Ashan hob kan men el awwal yateem
For a love that was an orphan from the start
روح… وما تبصش ورا
Rooh... w ma tebossesh wara
Go... and don't look back
خلاص اللي بينا انتهى
Khalas elly benna entaha
What was between us is over
اللي ضاع مني كان كتير
What I lost was a lot
بس اللي فاضل… ليا أنا
Bas elly fadhel... leya ana
But what's left... is for me
[Verse 2]
لميت صورك من على الحيطان
Lammet sowarak men 'ala el heetan
I took your pictures off the walls
بس فضل في الأوضة صدى كلامك
Bas fadhel fel oda sada kalamak
But the echo of your words remained in the room
كان نفسي تكون ليا الأمان
I wished you would be my safety
لقيتني بخاف أكتر وأنا قدامك
La'eetni bakhaf aktar w ana oddamak
I found myself more afraid when I was in front of you
ومش هكدب وأقول نسيت
W mesh hakdeb w aqool neseet
And I won't lie and say I forgot
القلب ده لسه بيوجعه اسمك
El qalb da lessa beywaga'o esmak
This heart still hurts at your name
بس أنا خلاص اخترت نفسي
Bas ana khalas ekhtart nafsi
But I have chosen myself now
حتى لو هيوجعني بعدك
Hatta law haywaga'ni ba'dak
Even if your absence will hurt me
[Pre-Chorus]
ما تقوليش آسف دلوقتي
Ma teqoolish assef delwa'ty
Don't tell me 'sorry' now
الكلمة جت متأخرة كتير
El kelma gat meta'akhara keteer
The word came too late
أنا مش زعلانة منك
Ana mesh za'lana mennak
I'm not upset with you
أنا زعلانة إني صبرت كتير
Ana za'lana enni sabart keteer
I'm upset that I waited too long
[Chorus]
تعبت… ومش عايزة أعاتب
Te'ebt... w mesh 'ayza a'ateb
I'm tired... and I don't want to reproach
ولا عايزة أفتح جرح قديم

[Bridge – piano only, intimate]
يمكن في يوم تفتكرني
Yemken fi yom teftakerni
Maybe one day you'll remember me
في ليلة برد ومفيش حد جنبك
Fi leila bard w mafeesh hadd ganbak
On a cold night, with no one beside you
ساعتها هتعرف إن الهدوء ده
Sa'etha hate'raf in el hedoo' da
Then you'll know that this calm
ما كانش ضعف… كان حب كبير
Ma kanesh da'f... kan hob keteer
Wasn't weakness... it was great love
[Final Chorus – key change, full orchestra]
تعبت… ومش عايزة أعاتب

I wasted years fighting

Leya ana...
For me...
لوحدي… ليا أنا

Lines explained
“عشان حب كان من الأول يتيم”
Ashan hob kan men el awwal yateem
For a love that was an orphan from the start
The phrase 'a love that was an orphan from the start' implies that the love was lacking essential support, care, or a proper foundation from its very beginning, making it doomed to fail.
“بس اللي فاضل… ليا أنا”
Bas elly fadhel... leya ana
But what's left... is for me
This line signifies a turning point where the singer reclaims her self-worth and future, asserting that whatever remains of her life and happiness is now solely for her, not to be shared or wasted on the past relationship.
“ما كانش ضعف… كان حب كبير”
Ma kanesh da'f... kan hob keteer
Wasn't weakness... it was great love
The singer suggests that her quiet acceptance or eventual detachment was not a sign of weakness or indifference, but rather a profound and enduring love that eventually led her to a peaceful, albeit painful, resolution.
