In The Past Few Days
In the last few days...
He had enough strength to live his life without me...Why?
I can't believe that he accepted to allow the night to fall while he is not beside me!
If he was planning for something...
Why didn't he tell me about it?!
People, When he forget all about me...My life will end instantly!
I've never thought he would push me away and live with other people...
My dear heart, with whom shall I forget my agony if he walked away; and I will always wonder my beloved one now belongs to who?
What is he doing now and where is he?
If one day he saw me with his own eyes...
That day he will feel sorry about me...
Without him, my heart is scared because it already knows the subsequence of being apart
I've never thought he would push me away and live with other people...
My dear heart, with whom shall I forget my agony if he walked away; and I will always wonder my beloved one now belongs to who?

Find someone

The song's lyrics is like an advice from Angham (or better say the song's writer Nasser Rashwan) to lonely people.
I've tried my best to translate the lyrics from Arabic to English, it wasn't as good as the original Arabic but at least now you can get the idea.Song name: Elqalak Had (Find someone) إلقالك حد
Album: Wahdaniya (1999) وحدانية
Song genre: Slow,Oriental, Sharqi, Belly Dance
Singer: Angham أنغام
Lyrics by: Nassir Rashwan - ناصر رشوان

Find someone...
To listen to you whenever you are depressed...
To be your companion, your family and your home...
To call you if one day you were lost...
To see through you whenever you tried to hide your pain upon people...
To sense your agony no matter how far you are...
Find someone...
Find a dream
Don't let your life pass with illusions...
Life flips between happiness and pain
When you water thorn it will grow into roses
Find someone...
Find someone to long for you
And a beloved one who would come to you whenever he/she misses you
If you felt that your nights (nights figure speech for agony/despair/sadness) are endless...
He/She will be a dawn, a sun and a tomorrow (as future and hope)
Fine someone...
To be your companion, your family and your home...
To call you if one day you were lost...
To see through you whenever you tried to hide your pain upon people...
To sense your agony no matter how far you are
Find someone
إلقالك حد...لو ضاقت بيك يفتحلك قلب
يبقالك صحبة و أهل و بيت
يناديك لو إنت فيوم ضليت
و يشوفك لو عالخلق داريت
و يحسك رغم البين و البعد
إلقاك حد...
إلقالك حلم من الأحلام
ما تسيبش سنينك للأوهام
الدنيا ما بين أفراح و آلام
و الشوك تسقيه يطرحلك ورد
إلقالك حد
إلقالك قلب يحن إليك
و حبيب يشتاق و يروح يلاقيك
لو طالت في الأيام لياليك
يبقالك فجر و شمس و غد
إلقالك حد

I've been walking for many years (Years are passing)

She talk in plural form, but in Arabic it could mean two things...She could be talking about many people such as friends or family. Also in Arabic we use plural form as a sign for respect for certain person such as prince, king, or maybe a lover.
The song is full of figure speeches, the title it self is a figure speech...She doesn't mean that she is walking for many years literally, it's a figure speech for years are passing.

I've been walking for many years...
While I was hiding my pain upon them...
For many years my soul was owned by them...
I've never longed to nobody except them...
And I never felt lonely while I was with them!
For my whole life I was trying to hide my agony upon them...
Because I didn't want them to suffer even by a breeze of air blowing on their eyes...
And now I regret it...
Because they betrayed our golden years together and forgot all about love in one second!
I and my heart are confused...
Although many years already passed yet we couldn't forget them...
I've hidden my tear because I didn't want them to see it...
I swallowed my sighs because I didn't want them to hear it!
I've been walking for many years...
While I was hiding my pain upon them...
For many years my soul was owned by them...
I've never longed to nobody except them...
And I never felt lonely while I was with them!
و بقيت سنين...و أنا روحي بإيديهم
و لا حنيت في يوم إلا لهواهم
و لا حسيت بالغربية في لحظة معاهم
و طول عمري بداري عليهم...
بخاف من النسمة لا تجرح عينيهم
و لكن يا ندم...
دول خانوا للعشرة و باعوا للحب و نسيوا في لحظة
أنا و قلبي يا روحي حيارة...
سنين و لا بننسى يا عيني خسارة
داريت في دمعتي خايفة لا يشوفوها...
كتمت الآه في قلبي عنهم لا يسمعوها

Honestly

Yasmin is a new singer, this is her first album...She has a beautiful voice.
The song I am talking about isn't well known because there is not a music video of it, "Ban Alaya Hawah" is more popular since it's a dance song and there is a music video of it.

I dedicated my life to you but you never appreciated it...
I "lit my own fingers to you" the way you lit candles but that wasn't enough to you...
What else you want me to do, tell me honestly?
Honestly, being away of you will not affect me...Sometimes I might feel bad but mostly I will not
I will be waiting for you this night but if you didn't comeback...
I won't be miserable because you are the one who left in the first place
If you decided to leave I will leave too, I am going to lose either way
Then I forgive you and forget about it then you "wound" (hurt) me again
This time I am going to leave you without any regret
Honestly, being away of you will not affect me...Sometimes I might feel bad but mostly I will not
I will be waiting for you this night but if you didn't comeback...
إديتك من عمري كتير و ما حسيتش...
قدت صوابعي العشرة شموع ما رضيتش..
اعمل ايه علشانك تاني قول بأمانة...
بأمانة من غيرك أنا مش تعبانة...بزعل أوقات و كتير قوي مش زعلانة آه مش زعلانة
ح استناك ليلة و مش راجع...
ح اتعب على ايه ما انت البايع
تبعد ح ابعد مهي كدة كدة خسرانة
انا ياما كنت بعدي حاجات جارحاني
و ارجع اسامحك و انسى و ترجع تجرح ثاني
و المرة دي بجد ح اسيبك و مش ندمانة
بأمانة من غيرك أنا مش تعبانة...بزعل أوقات و كتير قوي مش زعلانة آه مش زعلانة
ح استناك ليلة و مش راجع...
ح اتعب على ايه ما انت البايع
تبعد ح ابعد مهي كدة كدة خسرانة

Whenever you are depressed
This song was my favorite song of Saber's 2007 album, I was listening to it non stop for so long, I even had it as my cellphone's ringtone.
The other day I was watching him with the host "Hala Sarhan" (هالة سرحان) and she said that he cried in the studio while he was singing this song...He said that was true he got emotional when he was singing a specific phrase so he wanted to redo it but they confessed him to use the one with the crying part and he did actually release it that way...You can hear that part in the audio track at 1:23 minutes.
I am glad he decided to shot this song among the others from his 2007 album.
Song name: Dhaqat Beek (Whenever you are depressed) ضاقت بيك

Translated by: RADIANT GUY (ME)
I always support you against day (in your bad days), but when destiny smiles to you and take your side...
You instantly forget all about me while I pray for God to look after you
Whenever you are depressed...You always want me to stick around...
Whenever you are fine...You consider my faithfulness a burden which you want to get rid off...
In both ways I remain silent, I don't want to forget you nor I want to!
People says when a lover can't tolerate his beloved one anymore, he will not love him but will not hate him either...
But I already can't tolerate it anymore yet I can't hate you nor stop loving you!
كل مرة بكون معاك عالزمن و أما الزمن يضحكلك و يكون وياك
على طول تبيعني من غير ثمن و أنا برضو بدعي ربنا معاك
ضاقت بيك...تبقى عايزني أكون حواليك
ضحكت ليك...إخلاصي يكون حمل عليك
في الحالتين ساكت لا بنساك و لا بقدر أنساك
قالوا إن اللي يحب بجد لو فاض بيه من اللي يحبه...ما يحبش بس ما يكرهش
!و أنا فاض بيا تعبت بجد...قد ما بتعب لا كرهتك و لا عارف حتى ما أحبكش

Take good care of me

My favorite song of Elissa 2008 album...No wonder because it was composed by Waleed Sa'ad...Most of his work is amazing if not all of it!
It's kinda similar to a song from her 2006 album "Law Bassaet Qoddamak".
The music arrangement of the song is amazing, those violins are making me melt!
Here is a montaged video I found on Youtube...Elissa is NOT in the clip but you can hear the song if you don't like to download the MP3
Song name: Khod Balak Alaya (Take good care of me) خذ بالك عليا
Album: Ayyami Beek أيامي بيك 2008

Take good care of me...This is not a tender way to treat me...
And keep in mind all the days I devoted my self to you
If only you could understand me and not take it granted...
A woman who has ached without revealing it...
This woman who has sacrificed and tolerated so much...
When she decides to walk away, she will not ask for your permission!
There were many missing things in you and I made them all perfect...
And I made the ugly parts of you pretty...
My love is an opportunity that you will regret if you lost it!
Who else will spend days worrying about you?
Who else will let you take her soul with you, if you decided to walk away?
Who else will you find whenever you need someone around?
خذ بالك عليا...دي مش معاملة تعاملني بيها
و إبقى إفتكر ليا...أيام تعبت عشانك فيها
يا ريتك بس تفهمني و ما تستهونش
دي وحدة تبقى مجروحة و ما بتبينش
دي الوحده قد ما تضحي و تستحمل...اول ما ما بتفكر تنسى ما بتستأذنش
كان في حاجات ناقصاك و أنا كملتها
و حاجات كتير مش حلوة فيك جملتها
أنا فرصة لو ضيعتها تزعل عليها
مين غيري عايشة تخاف عليك طول عمرها
مين غيري هتسيب روحها ليك لو سبتها
مين غيري لو تحتاجلها قوام هتلاقيها

You've changed me...
I am not what I am anymore...
I don't believe in anybody anymore...
You've changed me...
I am afraid of everybody...
Aren't you a human being with feelings and emotions just like us?
You only know how to take but you never give back!
You've changed me...
You've made me regret dreaming that I could teach you how to treasure me...
Now I have to forget all about you because you are a weak person who can not handle my heart and love
Aren't you a human being with feelings and emotions just like us?
You only know how to take but you never give back!
غيرتني ما بقتش انا ما بقتش اصدق اي حاجه
غيرتني معقوله انا بقيت اخاف من كل حاجه
هو انت ايه مش برضه انسان زينا ممكن تحس؟
و الا انت ايه كل اللي عارفه عن الحياه تاخذ و بس!
غيرتني خليتني اندم اني كنت بجد بحلم
اعلمك تقدر اللي مابين ايديك
لازم تهون لما تكون انسان ضعيف
مش قد قلبي و حبي ليك

I want no body except you

Sherine has a great voice and childish personality which I love. I always loved her slow songs but what makes this song special the "Maqsoom rhythm" (Maqsoom is the oriental rhythm some people refer to it as belly dance music) mixed with light rock guitars.
The song is very romantic. When Sherine perform the song life in concerts she sing it with different lyrics, the translation below is of the studio version of the song.
The song was never released officially, that's why I know nothing about the writer, the composer and the music arranger...All what I know about the song that it's could be found online since the year 2005.
Begin with the studio version ;)

Song genre: Arab pop music / slow
I want no body except you...
I swear I love you only...
You are my only love...
You are everybody to me
There was something missing in my life and it was completed with you
My beloved one, while I am with you I feel that I own the whole world and time!
When your hands touches me, It's seems that I am in another world!
I need nobody of human kind except you...
It's enough to know that you belongs to me!
Because I love you a lot, I don't even want to blink!
I want to be with you, see you and live just for you!
If one second passed while I am not with you, I'll die and only your love will keep me a life!
مش عايزه غيرك انت
والله بحبك انت
و الحب كله انت
و انت الناس كلها
دي سنين العمر راحوا
قلبي عاشها بجراحه
كانت ناقصاني حاجه
و معاك كملتها
يا حبيبي معاك بملك بهواك الدنيا و كل زماني
تلمسني ايديك تحضني عينيك تلاقيني فعالم ثاني
مش عايزه خلاص غيرك من الناس و كفايه تكون علشاني
من كثر هواك طول مانا وياك مش عايزه اغمض عيني
عايزه ابقى معاك و افظل شايفاك و اعيشلك كل سنيني
لو ثانيه تفوت من غيرك اموت و هواك بس بيحيني
و هذه كلمات الأغنية كما تعنيها شيرين في حفلاتها
مش عايزه غيرك انت
والله بحبك انت
و الحب كله انت
و انت الناس كلها
يا أغلى من عيوني...
االليل و الشوق جابوني...
لعيونك أنسى فيهم أحزان أنا عشتها
قبلك كان قلبي فاضي...
عايش أيامه عادي...
و أما لقيتك قصادي حبيت طعم الهنا

My lifetime

Usually when I listen to any album for the first time, I always get stick with a specific song in the album. "Hayati" (My lifetime) was that song in Latifa's 2007 album (Ma'alomat Akeeda), it doesn't mean that it's the best song in the album but for some reason slow songs atracts me. It kinda remind me of her 1993 song Beyihsibooni (بيحسبوني) they thought; which I totally loved at the time and still loving it.
Recently I used that song as a background song for my first video clip uploaded on google video, It's embed below :)

My lifetime just begun...
Before knowing you it was ordinary...
I never noticed what's going on nor felt anything around me....
Now I found someone who really care about me
My life was changed when I met you...
Come closer to my heart and always keep it that way...
Let me see the world through your eyes and live my dreams
Promise me when I need you; I'll always find you with me...
and I swear that I will belong only to you..
I've been through a lot before knowing you...
I don't want to live in grief anymore
Your love is everything to me...
I used to be afraid but not anymore...
You're love made me feel something I never felt before
My darling I feel my heart is safe with you...
My heart is happy and I feel you... It can't hide my feelings anymore
and tells me that I love you
My life was changed when I met you...
Come closer to my heart...
Let me see the world through your eyes and live my dreams
حياتي ابتدت من اللحظة دية...
و قبلك دنيتي كانت عادية...
ما كنتش حاسة بيها و لا باللي فيها...
دلوقت بقالي حد يخاف عليا
انا شكل حياتي تغير بيك...
قرب من قلبي كمان خليك...
خليني اشوف الكون بعنيك...
و اعيش احلامي
احلفلك عمري ما اكون غير ليك...
انا شفت كثير و قاسيت قبليك...
مش عايزة اعيش أحزان ثانية
انا كنت بخاف دلوقت خلاص...
حبك خلاني اعيش احساس...
عمري ما حسيت زيه عمري
فرحان بوجودك حاسس بيك...
ما قدرش يداري غرامه عليك...
بيقولي كلام مش بيخبي
انا شكل حياتي تغير بيك...
قرب من قلبي كمان خليك...
خليني اشوف الكون بعنيك...
و اعيش احلامي

I saw him with my own eyes

The music video of the song was released on 30th of January 2007, I loved the stage it looks gigantic :D
The song "Shofto Be Aini" (Translation: I saw him with my own eyes) released in Latifa's latest album and this is my first review of the album's songs.
If you like Latifa's hit "Ma Etrohsh Ba'ed" (Translation: Don't go away) then definitely you will love this song!
I just uploaded the music video on Google video and added English subtitles on it (VIVA GOOGLE!).I never done that before and I am excited about it ;)
The music video was directed by Said Al Marouq, it looks futuristic; you can notice it from Latifa's hair, her dress and the people around her who were acting as robots.
I will write the lyrics in both Arabic script with English translation, some people requested it.
Note. you can use the photo above as a 1280*768 wallpaper, if you need it in 1024*768 & 800*600 check the wallpapers section in Latifa's official site (Latifaonline.net)

شفته بعيني ما حدش قالي...
ده بيحصله اللي بيحصلي...
مشغول باله و فكره تملي و كل عيونه كلام...
I saw him with my eyes...
He feels the way I feel...
He is in love and I can see that through his eyes...
شكلي ح اروحله و ابوحله و اقوله
قلبي يا عيني على اللي حصله...بيعد الايام
My heart told me all about it...
I think I will go to him and reveal my love to him...
He have been counting the days until we meet again
و انا قد هواه ده كله...
ده غرامي اكيد واصله...
لو جاني خلاص ح اقوله مش ح اخبي عليه
I love him as much as he love me...
I am definite that my love have reached him by now
If he came to me, I will tell him; I will not hide my feelings anymore
قولي بحبك تحلى الدنيا...
عايشة غرامك ثانية بثانية...
سامعة كلامك قول حاجة ثانية...
بحبك قولها كمان
Tell me "I love you" and make my life more beautiful...
I love you every second of my life...
I can hear you, tell me I love you one more time
انا بحلم و الا بجد حقيقة؟!
قلبي تاعبني شوفله طريقة...
عايزة اوصلك انا في دقيقة...في قلبك ليا مكان
Am I dreaming or is this a reality?
My heart is longing to you find a way to comfort it...
I want to reach you in a minute...
Is there enough room for me in your heart?

YAHOOoOoOoOOoooOoOooOoo! LATIFA'S 2007 CD RELEASED
I thought the song's arrangement was the same, nothing new just like all of Fairouz's (If you never heard of Fairouz, she is one of the Arab world legends of all time) songs...When I kept listening to it the next few days I TOTALLY LOVED IT!
However I loved some songs the first time I heard them such as the very romantic song "Hayati" (translation: My life) CLICK HERE to DOWNLOAD the MP3, and the Arab pop song "Shofto Be Aini" (translation: I saw him with my own eyes) CLICK HERE to DOWNLOAD the MP3.
The album contained two twin songs Track# 1 which is "Ma'lomat Mish Akeeda" (translation: Indefinite information) and the last track in the album Track# 11 "Ma'lomat Akeeda" (translation: Definite information), in the first song she was talking about the way when a couple break up but she is not sure if that's it, she had a conflict with her self she loves him in parts of the songs and don't want him back in other parts, in track# 11 she is definite that they don't belong to each others anymore. She doesn't want him to be a part of her life and that's clear in the last part of the song when she says (as translated by me):
I resisted everybody to settle down with the one who I love...
You told me that I am not like the other girls; That i am someone different...
You made me feel that I am the only one you've ever loved in the whole world...
Why don't you tell me that anymore?
The greatest words you used to tell me?
I wish I had your real feelings not only your poems...
I can't forget those great days...Although you want me to forget it all!
Dear God help me to walk away of his love...He turned my life into air! (air is a figure speech for something cheap where you can find everywhere, it also means that he spread her love away just like air molecules that's one great advantage of Arab poetry, A word could mean many things)!
Dear God help me, his love doesn't make me happy anymore...Please don't let us return to each others again
I will add full translations in my music blog + some MP3s of the album soon.
Most of the songs in the album depends on Latifa's vocals (Tarab), in the main song of the album "Ma'alomat Akeeda" (Definite information) she almost sings without any music!
Most of the song's album are classics, very different of what's going on these days in the Arab world where most of the singers perform contemporary Arab Pop Music, Latifa didn't perform similar style since 1980s and early 1990s. But Latifa decided to released 2 or 3 contemporary songs, I think "Shofto Be Aini" (translation: I saw him with my own eyes) is the going to be a hit song when the music video released in the coming two weeks.
What makes this album different of all Latifa's albums and most of the albums (by other) these days?
I never thought that I would love that album the way I do, It's true I do love Latifa but I never liked Ziad the writer, composer and arranger of most of the album's songs.
It's kinda funny how some people consider him a great musician, an Arab icon while others hates him.
He has a weird music style, more into Classics/Jazz/Blues and that's the weird thing, he writes poems to be sung but they can't be considered as Arab poems simply because he doesn't follow the Arab poetry rules.
Most of his music work was performed by his mother Fairouz, I don't like her though but I like few of her songs.
Have a great weekend all ;)

During your absence...
Every single day seems endless...
I feel that the time is barely moving...
The atmosphere around me is cold and a fire is burning my heart inside out!
During your absence, I am bored of my self!
I can't indoor it nor tolerate it anymore!
During your absence...
All people looks weird to me...
Nobody can understand me even my close friends
I've never imagined my self being in that situation until now when I had to deal with it for real!
During your absence, I am bored of my self!
I can't indoor it nor tolerate it anymore!
I am barely a life!
I feel like a featherless bird!
My longing to you is driving me crazy and I can do nothing to stop it!
I've never imagined my self being in that situation until now when I had to deal with it for real!
During your absence, I am bored of my self!
I can't indoor it nor tolerate it anymore!

He promised one hundred times

Arab pop song with Arab rhythms performed by Diana Haddad, a great song.
I translated the first part of the song, It was hard to translate the other parts...It's really hard to translate Arabic poetry :(

He promised one hundred times that he will be mine forever!
But the exact moment I dedicated my love to him; he forgot all about his promise!
That's when I found out that he is a great liar...
He always promise but never keep his promises, he only fall in love for very few days then he forget all about his love!

I miss you

One of my very favorite songs released in 2003, It's a sad song with great lyrics. It was really hard to translate it, I guess the first paragraph was translated well but the 2nd and 3rd are meaningless in English!
The song reminds me of the beginning of the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, the whole album reminds me of that year.
The album was one of my favorite albums of the year 2003.

Singer: Sherine (Shereen | Arabic script: شرين)
Lyrics by: Nasr Mahroosnt>
Composed by: Riyadh Al Hamsharint>
Album: Jarh Thani (Second wound) 2003
Translated by: Bashar (Me)
I miss you even while I am sitting beside you!
I miss you; I even miss every single day I am spending with you!
And every second with out being with you is killing me!
And every single night I am living with out being with you makes my happy, scared and wounded.
I am afraid that even when I die I will still be missing you!
You are promising that there is no tomorrow, no day after tomorrow and I will not spend a single moment with out being with you; then you became late and I miss you more and I can do nothing about it because I don't have anybody to miss except you.
You are plaining many things and telling me many more promises but eventually I find my self with out you; then you give my some more hope but I always end up living the torture of your absence!

Here is the Music video
It's the first time I felt that I am a live and in love
When I noticed you
I saw you far away and the strangest thing happened...My own soul flew all the way to you!
My beloved, I wish my you can hear my voice; when will we meet?
Come to me
All my life and dreams belongs to you...
Come to me
It's the first time I felt lost, I even don't know whether I am still standing here or over there!
I am dieing to hear a voice telling me that I belong to you..
My feelings are above my capability and beyond my fantasy
If your heart was in the end of the longest road ever; I will walk the road until I reach the end!
My beloved, I wish you can hear my voice; when will we meet?
Come to me
All my life and dreams belongs to you...
Come to me
