Nawal al-Zoghbi - O Jerusalem / نوال الزغبي - يا قدس


نوال الزغبي - يا قدس

يا قدس كم أتوق إلى الصلاة
حيث الرجاء في ترابك الحبيب
ألا أنهضي و حطّمي قيد الطغاة
و أرجعي لأهله الوطن السليب

أنت لنا أنت لنا في الغروب و الصباح
أنت لنا كيف لنا أن نسكت نزف الجراح
أنت لنا أنت لنا يا قدس يا أرض السماح

هذي يدي خذ بيدي
نكتب للقدس الوفاء
يوم غد في الموعد
لها دماء الشهداء
يبقى لنا إيمانن
ا و لتسمع الصوت السماء


Nawal al-Zoghbi - O Jerusalem

O Jerusalem, how I long to pray
Where hope is in your beloved soil
Won't you rise and smash the reigns of tyranny
And return to its people the plundered nation  

You're ours, you're ours at dusk and in the morning
You're ours, how do we end the bleeding of the wounds?
You're ours, you're ours O Jerusalem land of generosity

My hand take my hand
Let us write devotion for Jerusalem
Tomorrow there is an appointment for the blood of the martyrs
Our hope remains for us
Or may the heavens hear our sound

  1. A few years ago I visited Jerusalem and was deeply touched by the situation there. Well, what can I say... Peace for Jerusalem!

Asmahan - O Birds / أسمهان - يا طيور

Asmahan - O Birds O birds Sing of my love and chant my passion and hopes To the one who is right beside me not paying attention to what's happening to me (i.e. in her love) I complain to him and he smiles and makes me grow fonder of him O birds Describe him my state of sleeplessness and sobbing (literally tears) The birds sang the sweetest words from the treetops The branches swayed from the felicity of their melodies And my heart was infatuated And the breeze blew gently carrying their beautiful sound As the flowers emanated the fragrance of longing And the brook sang along with them The air filled with tenderness sending away my longing and disgrace Oh how I hope his affection and love and favor will be mine He's happy with his handsomeness and youth, devoid of sorrows If he was in love, sleepless, feeling what I feel He would cry from his torment and wail along with the crying birds (literally, the curlew, which apparently is a bird that makes a crying sound, we don
