In The Past Few Days

Have you ever heard of the phrase "Music Globalization"?
If not...Then this is the best way to know my definition of that phrase!

The song released in Latifa's official website a week or so before the official release of the album on 12th of July 2008.

The first time I heard it It shocked me, I didn't expect to listen to anything like that ever...The song mixes genuine Arab singning teqniqe which is "Arab Tarab" (طرب عربي) - you can hear it when Latifa start singing in the beggining - with an Arab sad melody played with violin, in some parts it feels like the violin is dancing with the westurn disco beat and the electro guitar in the song, I can rephrase that to mixing two extreme unrelated music from two different worlds in a great harmony.

I can't explain that anymore, but you have to listen to it and you'll figure it out (and I would love to know what do you think).

As far as I know, the music video is going to release soon...I will add it here when it's out, maybe with English subtitles since many anonymous people requested the translations of the song (I didn't relize that people actually read my blogs!)

UPDATE: They refer to this music genre as "TekTonik" or "Tectonic", it even has it's own dance!
This is the first Arab Tektonik song, Latifa mixed it with Arab instruments.

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?


ف الكام يوم اللى فاتوا جالة قلب يعيش حياته
من غيرى أنا بس ليه؟
معقول يرضاها ليّا يجى يوم الليل عليا
ومايبقاش جانبى فيه؟!
لو فى حاجة ناويها لية ماقالش عليها؟
لو نسينى خلاص ساعتها ياناس
هروح أنا فيها
أنا ماستنيتش منه يبعدنى عنه
ويعيش لناس تانيين
مع مين أنا هنسى تعبى لو راح ياقلبى
وهقول حبيبى لمين؟

عامل أية ودلوقتى فينه؟
لو شافنى فى يوم بعينه
يومها ما أصعب عليه
قلبى من بعده خايف
أصلة مجرب وعارف
البعد بيعمل أيه
لو فى حاجة ناويها لية ماقالش عليها؟
لو نسينى خلاص ساعتها ياناس
هروح أنا فيها
أنا ماستنيتش منه يبعدنى عنه
ويعيش لناس تانيين
مع مين أنا هنسى تعبى لو راح ياقلبى
وهقول حبيبى لمين؟

Promise of life


OH MY GOD, Isn't this the most beautiful song I heard since the beginning of the year or what?
It's my current national anthem LOL

Listen to the music arrangement carefully, the music massacre of the violins combined with sax...Just perfect!
The lyrics is beautiful, this is the third song I heard written by Siham She'asha'a (The first one was by Latifa "Ashoofak" and the second one is "Sho Beni" by Ibrahim Al Hakami).


Song name: Maw'ed Omr (promise of life/Date of life)
Album: Hind 2008 هند
Song genre: Slow, fast, Pop
Singer: Hind (Hend) - هند
Lyrics by: Siham She'asha'a - سهام شعشاع
Composed by: Nicolas Sa'adah Nakhlah - نيقولا سعاده نخله
Arranged by: Micheal Fadhel - ميشيل فاضل
Translated by: RADIANT GUY (ME)

Whenever I hear someone's steps I instantly think of you and your promise...
"The universe" (Figure speech for life is moving as the sun rises and set on time everyday) came on time but you never did

That promise which I've been waiting for by the window
People came by while others break a part and never got bored waiting for you
Whenever I hear someone's steps I instantly think of you and your promise...
"The universe" (Figure speech for life is moving as the sun rises and set on time everyday) came on time but you never did
Sign...You never did

When the Sun rises every morning I remember the warmth of your eyes
I've been waiting for you to come by and pity my longing to you
Nobody is waiting for me anymore, nor there is no one to warm my cold hands, nor there is no one to hear me whenever I talk
Whenever I hear someone's steps I instantly think of you and your promise...
"The universe" (Figure speech for life is moving as the sun rises and set on time everyday) came on time but you never did

كل ما سمعت دعسة حدا بفكر بوعدي و فيك
الدنيا اجت ع موعدا و انت بعد ما جيت

هالموعد اللي صارله عمر ناطر على الشباك
مرقوا بشر...فلوا بشر... ما مل يستناك
كل ما سمعت دعسة حدا بفكر بوعدي و فيك
الدنيا اجت ع موعدا و انت بعد ما جيت
آه...و انت بعد ما جيت

كل ما الصبح تشرق شمس بذكر دفا عينيك
يا ما انطرت صوبي تجي ترحم حنيني ليك
ما عاد في عندي حدا ينطر مواعيدي
و لا عاد في عندي حدا يدفي برد ايدي
و لا عاد في عندي حدا يسمعني لولا حكيت
الدنيا اجت ع موعدا و انت بعد ما جيت

Good morning...


It's not the exact songs translation, It's very hard to translate Arab poetry so I had to modify it and change few things :Pp~

The song is made of three parts, in the first one she start complaining about things in indirect way, the second part she start blaming him gently and in the third part she welcome him back.

It's a great example of Khaleeji Tarab songs.

Song name: Yes'ed Sabahak (Good morning)
Album: Awqat (Released in the CD only) 2004
Singer: Asalah (Arabic script: اصالة)
Lyrics by: Prince Abdul-Rahman Bin Mosa'ad
Composed by: Sadiq Al Sha'er (Rumours says that the writer and the composer are the exact person, but he is using a nick name when he compose; since he is a prince)
Arranged by: Ameer Abdulmajeed


Good morning my love, I'm doing just OK...
Everything the way it's always been...
My tears still on my cheeks...
The pain still living in my chest...
The safeness still gone since the day you left...
The sleepless nights are being repeated over and over...
Despair refusing to leave me alone...
My eyes are bleeding with tears...
Even the wounds which you caused still staying in my heart...
And my lips still repeating the words which we said the last time we met...
I am doing just OK...
Good morning my love...


It's typical of you, whenever I felt that the whole world is collapsing around me you just disappear and whenever you felt that the world is collapsing around you; you'll return to me!
It's typical of you...You always return in the right time; when I don't need you anymore!
Can you see now?
Everything the way it's always been...
Good morning my love...

Is that the light of the morning or it's yours?
Is that the warmth of the roses or it's yours?
I don't know whether I should spread my precious tears on your shoulder or just walk away?
Can you see it now my soul's love?
Everything the way it's always been...
Good morning my 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!

The song

"AL GHENYWA" is a great song by Latifa, released in the year 1997 as a part two of her 1986 hit song "Akthar Min Roohi" (More than my soul).
Both songs are a mix of Arab instruments and Spanish Tango.

Album: Al Ghenwa (1997)
Song Genre: Tango
Singer: Latifa
Composer: Ammar Al Sherai'ei
Lyrics by: Abdulwahab Mohammed
Translated by: Hanine Jaraiseh


The song that we use to hear when we’re together is still on my mind constantly.
It's always moves and touches me every time I hear it.
I wonder if it’s the same for you when you hear it, does it still effect u the same way?
Does it make u cry about the way we ended up? Or you will not even care?
Did you forgot all about it; did you forget all about me too?
Did you completely forget me and our song?
The song that said “ I love you more than myself, honestly I love you even more”.

Years past and life drifted us apart; look who you’re with now, and who I’m with.
But I’m still thinking of our days together, and the same song still comes on my mind constantly.
I wonder if it’s the same for you when you hear it, does it still effect u the same way?
Does it make u cry about the way we ended up? Or you will not even care?
Did you forgot all about it; did you forget all about me too?
Did you completely forget me and our song?
The song that said “ I love you more than myself, honestly I love you even more”

Are you crying about the way we ended up?
“ I love you more than myself, honestly I love you even more”

Are you crying about the way we ended up?
“ I love you more than myself, honestly I love you even more”

Are you crying about the way we ended up?
“ I love you more than myself, honestly I love you even more”

Are you crying about the way we ended up?

Happy anniversary

Amazing song by Angham...It's kinda old/classic Khaleeji song yet it's still great, I had a hard time to translate it; I said it million times and i will say it one more time, the Arab poetry loses the power during translation. It's always better to read the original one.
This song is a great example of Khaleeji Classic Songs (Khaleeji refers to the Music in Khaleeji Arab Dialect which it's spoken in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Arab Emirates and Oman).
F.Y.I. Angham is Egyptian singer.


Song name: Eidina Mobarak - عيدنا مبارك (Happy anniversary)
Album: Khalli Bokra Li Bokra (1998)
Singer: Angham - انغام (Arabic for melodies)
Written by: Turki Bin Abdulrahman
Composed by: Tariq Mohammed (Rumors says that he is the writer using a nick name since he is a prince)


The exact spot; where we always met; every year during a starry night such as this one...
To celebrate the "first day we met" anniversary...Our love anniversary...

The exact stars...
The exact moon...
Even it's the exact air breeze which it's used to dally the trees leafs...
Everything like the way it's always been...
But we are not anymore...
Destiny brake us a part...
Everything is gone between us exept the echo of our song...

Happy anniversary my love...
Happy anniversary my love.. .
Happy anniversary my love....
