Lines explained

“وتبقي ديما تاج فوق راسنا”

Wa tebqi dima taj fawq rasna

And you remain always a crown upon our heads

This line uses the metaphor of a 'crown upon our heads' to signify the grandmother's high status, respect, and importance within the family, implying she is a source of honor and guidance.

“ويعطيك الصحة وطول البقاء”

Wa ya'tik es-sehha wa tul el-baqa'

And grant you health and long-lasting presence

This is a common Arabic blessing, wishing someone a long life filled with peace and well-being, and a lasting presence, which is especially poignant when addressing an elder.

“يا أغلى من روحي، يا نور عينينا”

Ya aghla min rouhi, ya nour 'aynina

Oh dearest to my soul, oh light of our eyes

This line combines two strong expressions of endearment: 'dearest to my soul' (ya aghla min rouhi) and 'light of our eyes' (ya nour 'aynina), both conveying profound love and the idea that the grandmother is essential to their existence and happiness.
