إني اخترتك يا وطني ـ مرسيل خليفة

إني اخترُتك يا وطني
حُبّا وطواعية
إني اخترتك يا وطني
سِراً وعلانية
إني اخترتك يا وطني
فليتنكّر لي زمني
ما دُمْتَ ستذكُرني
يا وطني الرائع يا وطني
دائمُ الخضرة يا قلبي
وإن بان بعَيْنَيَّ الأسى
دائمُ الثورةِ يا قلبي
وإن صارت صباحاتي مَسا
جئتُ في زمن الجزْرِ
جئْتُ في عِزِّ التعَبِ
رشاش عُنفٍ وغضب
وغضب
وغضب
وغضب
...
وغضب

Paul Simon - 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover + lyrics


Paul Simon - 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover

Lyrics:

"The problem is all inside your head", she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

She said it's really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself, at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover

You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Ooo slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
Don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
Get yourself free

She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways

She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover

You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Oh you hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

George Qurmuz - Record I'm an Arab (سجل أنا عربي)




This song is based on Mahmoud Darwish's poem "Idenity Card". Here, it is performed by the lebanese singer George Qurmuz.

Record!
I am an Arab
And my identity card is number fifty thousand
I have eight children
And the nineth is coming after a summer
Will you be angry?
Record!
I am an Arab
Employed with fellow workers at a quarry
I have eight children
I get them bread
Garments and books
from the rocks..
I do not supplicate charity at your doors
Nor do I belittle myself at the footsteps of your chamber
So will you be angry?
Record!
I am an Arab
I have a name without a title
Patient in a country
Where people are enraged
My roots
Were entrenched before the birth of time
And before the opening of the eras
Before the pines, and the olive trees
And before the grass grew
My father.. descends from the family of the plow
Not from a privileged class
And my grandfather..was a farmer
Neither well-bred, nor well-born!
Teaches me the pride of the sun
Before teaching me how to read
And my house is like a watchman's hut
Made of branches and cane
Are you satisfied with my status?
I have a name without a title!
Record!
I am an Arab
You have stolen the orchards of my ancestors
And the land which I cultivated
Along with my children
And you left nothing for us
Except for these rocks..
So will the State take them
As it has been said?!
Therefore!
Record on the top of the first page:
I do not hate poeple
Nor do I encroach
But if I become hungry
The usurper's flesh will be my food
Beware..
Beware..
Of my hunger
And my anger!

الويل لكم









الويل لكم

جورج قرمز



الويل لكم

إن مرّ عليكم

عصر النار



وأنتم شعب متواضع

يرضى بالفقر وبالتعتير..





ويقنع بالأمر الواقع

ويقنع بالأمر الواقع



الويل لكم الويل لكم

إن مرّ عليكم عصر النار..





إحمل كرباجك واخرِجهم

خلّصهم من أيدي السمسار

علّمهم كيف يغنّون

وكيف يحبّون الأشعار..





صيّرهم طفلاً مجنوناً

يكتب بالحبر على الأقمار..

Sameeh Shuqeir سميح شقير - رجع الخي




رجع الخي يا عين لا تدمعيلو

فوق كتاف رفقاتو ومحبينو 
رجع الخي يا يمه زغرديلو
هالشهيد دماتو دين علينا

يا شوقي لطلاتو
وياما حلفنا بحياتو
ويلي ضحى بدماتو
بقلوبنا حي

خبرونا يلي كانوا 
قالوا كان سبع بأوانو
على الأعادي بنيرانو 
يشويهن شي

يمه شفنا وين تصاوب
يمه بصدرو وكفو حارب
ماشيين وهو النا 
.بالعتمة ضي

بكتب اسمك يا حبيبي - فيروز Bektob esmak ya habibi (I Write your name, my beloved) - Fairouz


Translation from  Jaskono's Youtube Channel
Fairuz - I'm Writing Your Name

I'm writing your name my darling
On the old poplar
You're writing my name my darling
In the sand on the path
And tomorrow it will rain
On the wounded stories
Your name will remain my darling
And my name will be erased
I talk about you my darling
To my the people in the neighborhood
You talk about me my darling
To a spring of water
And when they burn the midnight oil
Beneath the lamps of the evening
They talk about you my darling
And I am forgotten
And you gave me a flower
I showed it to my friends
I put it in my book
I planted it on my pillow
I gave you a vase
You didn't take care of it
And you weren't concerned with it
And so the gift went to waste
And you tell me you love me
You don't know how much
That you still love me.

The last 2 lines should me:
If you really love me
then why ?
please .. why?

Childhood Dreams

Among the most beautiful songs ever made.

Childhood dreams - Nelly Furtado

I cant belive you need me
I never thought I would be needed for anything
I can't belive my shoulder would carry such important weight
As your head and your tears
I can't belive you chose me, in all my fragility, me
It hurts so much when i love you, it makes me cry
Every time

Oh You, oh you are, oh you are
The little boy made for me in the stars
In the stars, that's why I can't let you go
The little boy made for me in the stars
That's why I love you more the further it goes
And before this existence you were always there
Waiting for me
You are, you are the realest thing I know
Hands down
The realest thing I know

I am not used to being carried
Or being able to carry a pretty song
I have been bruised by my many trails
Sometimes my skin's so thick it's frail
I just need to be ignored 'til I wake up to the beaty that is yours
And it all comes to life so suddenly
This is a place so deep, the water's so deep I hesitate, cause

All the energy it takes to feel this power
I tend to run, I tend to hide, I tend
'til I find you and I know I got you
I know, I know, I know ...

You're the little boy made for me in the stars
In the stars, that's why I can't let you go
The little boy made for me in the stars
That's why I love you more the further I go
And before this existence you were always here
Inside of me
You are, you are the realest thing I know
Hands down...the realest thing I know

I'm sliding on the raibows of my childhood dreams
I'm sliding on the raibows of my childhood dreams

When you carry me, when you carry me, when you carry me
It's so happy

I'm sliding on the rainbows of my childhood dreams
I'm sliding on the raibows of my childhood dreams...

Jean Leloup - Je suis parti


la plaine est morne sous la pluie
nuages bas, le temps est gris
la plaine est morne sous le deuil
nuages bas, le temps est gris

je suis parti de ma famille
il ne faut jamais revenir
quand le soleil jamais ne brille
quand le meilleur devient le pire
et j'ai erré et voyagé
et máªme si je pense á  toi
á  toutes les heures de la journée
et máªme si je pense á  toi
jamais je ne reviendrai
s'il faut recommencer la bataille
je laisse tomber
je ne suis pas de taille
je ne veux plus me battre avec toi
je ne veux plus me battre avec toi

je suis parti comme un voleur
je suis parti sans faire d'erreur
comme le bourreau coupe d'un coup
du condamné le pauvre cou
quand tout á  coup l'amour n'est plus
que douleur au fond de notre áªtre

la plaine est morne sous la pluie
nuages bas, le temps est gris
la plaine est triste sous le deuil
et la carcasse du chevreuil

je suis parti de ma famille
il ne faut jamais revenir
quand le soleil jamais ne brille
quand le meilleur devient le pire
et j'ai erré et voyagé
et máªme si je pense á  toi
á  toutes les heures de la journée
et máªme si je pense á  toi
jamais je ne reviendrai
s'il faut recommencer la bataille
je laisse tomber
je ne suis pas de taille
je ne veux plus me battre avec toi
je ne veux plus me battre avec toi

je suis parti de ma famille
il ne faut jamais revenir
quand le soleil jamais ne brille
quand le meilleur devient le pire
quant tou á  coup l'amour n'est plus
que douleur au fond de notre áªtre
et que plus aucune fenáªtre
ne laisse passer le beau temps
ne laisse passer le beau temps

يا نبض الضفة



يدة " نبـــض الضـــفة "

في الضفة اطفالي سبعة أصغرهم يرضع تاريخاً

أوسطهم اسمه جيفارا أكبرهم ثائر في الضفة

يا كل العالم فلتعلم أطفالي يُتْمٌ زرعوا الحقل وروداً حمراء

في سواعدهم حصدوا الخيرا اطفالي, وامراتي وانا…

أصرخ…

نصرخ….

فليمسي وطني حرا فليرحل محتلي فليرحل…

فليمسي وطني حرا فليرحل محتلي

وطني مسبيٌ لكن الطلقة وحجارة أطفال الضفة

كطلقة …

كالمدفع …..

هل تسمع؟

لينا كانت طفلة تصنع غدها…

لينا سقطت, لكن دمها كان يغني… كان يغني… كان يغني.

للجسد المصلوب الغاضب للقدس ويافا وأريحا

للجسد المصلوب الغاضب للقدس ويافا وأريحا

للشجر الواقف في غزة للبحر الميت في الأردن

للجسد المصلوب الغاضب….

يا نبض الضفة لا تهدأ أعلنها ثورة

حطم قيدك إجعل لحمك جسر العودة…

فليمسي وطني حرا فليرحل محتلي فليرحل…

فليمسي وطني حرا فليرحل محتلي

Ensemble Ibn Arabi - Sufi Music : Je T´Aaime De Deux Amours (My Love for You Is Twofold)




عرفت الهوى
I knew love
مذ عرفت هواك
Since I knew your love
واغلقت قلبي
And  I locked my heart
عمن عداك
To anyone but you
وقمت اناجيك
and I confided in you
يامن تري
You who can see
خفايا القلوب
What's hidden in the hearts
ولست اراك
and I cannot see you

احبك حبين
I love you two loves ;
حب الهوى
a love for the sake of love
وحبا لانك اهل لذاك
and a love because you are worthy of it
فاما الذي هو حب الهوى
as for the love for the sake of love;
فشغلي بذكرك عمن سواك
It is about having my mind busy with you
and no one else
واما الذي انت اهل له
and as for the love that you deserve
فلست ارى الكون حتى اراك
I cannot even see the Universe without seeing you
فلا الحمد في ذا وذاك لي
so the gratitude for this and that is not to me
ولكن لك الحمد في ذا وذاك
but to you is the praise for all this and that



ادم ذكري من اهوى
Keep the memory of whom I love 
ولو بمنامي
even if in my dream
فان احاديث الحبيب
for the conversation of the beloved
مدامي
is my wine
وانها بطيف منامي
and she is in the shadow of my sleep
ليشهد سمعي من احب
so that my hearing would witness whom I love
بروحي من اتلفت روحي
بحبها
I give my life to her
whose love with which
I ruined my soul
فحان حمامي
so my death arrived
قبل يوم حمامي
long before the day my death
ولم يبق الحب مني
and love didnt leave of me
الا حزني
except my sadness
و كابتي
and my depression

وفرط سقامي
and too much illness
لينجو خلي
so that my lover
من هوائي بنفسه
would save himself from my love
سليما
and be safe
ويا نفس اذهبي
and Oh Soul..Leave...
بالسلام
in Peace ....

The Rasmus - Shot




Tonight we escape
just you and me
we'll find our peace
somewhere across the seas?

enough of the fright
enough of the fuss
I'll be awake if he finds us
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I will protect you
and I...

I'll take the shot for you
I'll be the shield for you
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I'll take the shot for you
I'll give my life for you
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot for you
for you

tonight we'll be free
I'll find us a home?
tonight we will be
finally on our own

enough of the hell
enough of the pain
I won't let him touch you
I love you
needless to say
I'll stand in your way
I will defend you
and I'll....

I'll take the...

enough of the scars
enough broken hearts
I will protect you
and I..

I'll take the shot
I'll make it stop

I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot

عبد المجيد عبد الله - ما كان الفراق اختياري




و الله ما كان الفراق اختياري
 I swear to God
separation was not my choice
و لا عمري اخترت الوصال و لقيته
I never chose connection and found it 
و انا اعشقك عشق المطر للصحاري
and I am in love with you 
like the deserts are in love with the rain
مهما قسى وقتك علي ما جفيته
 No matter how cruel my time with you gets
I never want to stay away

ما كان بعدي عنك بالبال طاري
 Being away from you has never occurred to my mind
اخترت بعدي عنك منك و رضيته
 you chose to be far from me
and accepted it
لو كنت داري بس لو كنت داري
If I you only knew, If I  you only knew
ما اعطيلك لك قلبي و حبك مشيته
I would've never given you my heart
and walked in the path of your love

لو مل من صبري حنين انتظاري
If my patience gets bored of the longing of my waiting
ما قلت ابيك و لا رجوعك رجيته
I would've never said I want you
or wish for your return
اذبلت من طبعك ورود اعتذاري
 your ways
caused the flowers of my appologies
to wither
عطشان ذوق و لطفكم ما ارتويته
thirsty to taste
but for your kindness
I was still thirsty
 
ليت الزمن يقدر يرد اعتباري
I wish time can restore my dignity
و يبري لهايب قلبي اللي كويته
and heal the flames of my heart that you ironed
روّح ما راح الليل و الليل ساري
 go ..
go as the night goes...
لو كان مهما كان حبك نسيته
whatever your love was..
I forgot it...

و الله ما كان الفراق اختياري
 I swear to God
Separation was never my choice
بس انت مختار الفراق و لقيته
But you chose it
and you got it
و انا اعشقك عشق المطر للصحاري
and I am in love with you 
like the deserts are in love with the rain
مهما قسى وقتك علي ما جفيته
no matter how cruel my time with you
I long for it

Tthe heart of misery - The Rasmus


I don't want to feel anything today
(I don't want to feel anything today)
Anything at all and just be alone
(I just want to know that you want to know)
I don't want to live through another day
(I don't want to live through another day)
Meaningless to fight for the victory
I just want to dive in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery


I don't want to feel anything today
(I don't want to feel anything today)
Anything at all and just be alone
(I just want to know that you want to know)
I don't want to live through another day
(I don't want to live through another day)
Meaningless to fight for the victory
I just want to dive in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

I will never be anything again
(I will never be anything again)
I'm tired to give, I don't want to try
(I'm afraid to live, I'm afraid to die)
I just want to fly, throw it all away
(I just want to fly, throw it all away)
Meaningless to fight for your sympathy
I just want to drown in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

One man forgot to breathe
One heart refused to beat
One love is incomplete

One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, one fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

One love, One life
Locked me in the heart of misery
One loss, One fight
Locked me in the heart of misery

Ah ah, ah ah
In the heart of misery
Ah ah, ah ah
In the heart of misery

The Rasmus - 10 Black Roses

Life is like a boat in a bottle,
Try to sail you cant with no air,
Day by day it only gets harder,
Try to scream but nobody cares,
Through the glass you see the same faces,
Hear their voices fade like a drum,
When your life's a boat in a bottle,
You're surrounded drifting alone,

Don't leave me now,
stay another day,
with me,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When your heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses,



Far away we wait for each other,
I'm still on that road to nowhere,
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror,
Tie a black rose into your hair,

Don't lose your faith,
share another night,
with me,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When your heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses,

10 black roses x2

Life is like a boat in a bottle,
Try to sail you can't with no air,
Day by day it only gets harder,
Try to scream but nobody cares,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When you're heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses.

إرحل - Leave



إرحل.. قالوا لي

Leave, They said to me
جند أتوا من بعيد
Soldiers who cam from far away
قالوا إرحل
They said : Leave!


دخلوا بيتي
They came into my home..
 قتلوا ولدي
They killed my son..
They raped my wife...
إغتصبوا امرأتي
قالوا إرحل..

They aid : Leave!

حفروا في الوجه مغارة

They engraved a cave in my face
مرّوا على جسدي
They ran over my body
They planted a bullet in my heart
زرعوا في القلب رصاصة
نصبوا لي الخيمة
They installed a tent for me

قلت سأبقى مارداً جرحاً يعانق تربتي
I said I will stay , a giant wound embracing my soil

و طرقت باب أمتي

and I knocked on the doors of my nation
وكانت نائمة
and it was sleeping
and i was left alone
while my nation was dreaming

و بقيت وحدي
وأمتي تحلم
دخلوا وأمتي تحلم
They came in .. while my nation was dreaming

قالوا إرحل..

They said : Leave!!

هذه بلادي واعلموا أن الصغار

This is my country and you better know that the small ones
from the cycle of dreams will own the decision
من دورة الأحلام تمتلك القرار
من سجون الليل تنتزع النهار وتمضي عواصفا
from the prisons of the night it grabs the daylight
and move like storms

عبدالمجيد- عبدالله - الحب الجديد - Saudi Arabia : Abd El Majid Abdallah - The new Love

ايش جابك
what brought you?
من بلادك لبلادي
from your country to mine?
ايش اللي خلاك
 What made you ?
تسكن في فؤادي
reside in my heart?
احس شي
I feel something
 في مهجتي لك غير عادي
 in my heart for you that is extraordinary
كل ما اشوفك
every time i see you 
يزيد 
it increases
ياذا الحب الجديد
Oh .. New love
يعتصر قلبي
who squeezes my heart
وياخـذ ما يريد
and takes whatever it wants


كنت وحدي
I was alone 
منعزل في وسط وادي
Isolated in a valley
جيتني بالحب 
you came to me with love
من  قلبك ينادي
from your heart calling
هزني صوتك
your voice shook me
 كانه طير شادي
like a singing bird
جن عقلي
 my mind went crazy
بالنشيد
with chanting
عاتبوني فيك
they blamed me about you
زادوني ملامة
They blamed and blamed
كل واحد يسأل 
every one is asking
الثاني علامه
what is wrong with him?
كن حبك طير
 as if your love is a bird
واحساسي حمامة
and my feeling is a dove
سلمتلك
that submitted to you
ياعنيد
oh... stubborn one..
