This song was performed by the late singer Thekra (Arabic script: ذكرى) may her soul rest in peace :( 3 years ago on 28th of November 2003) she was murdered by her husband, this is a tribute from me to her soul.
I can never ever forget her, I am still denying the fact that she is not living with us anymore.
I just added a biography of her in wikipedia.org Here is a direct link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thekra
The first three minutes of the song you'll hear a violene playing solo with Thekra showing off her voice by repeating the word "Ya Habeebi" (Arabic for "my love" or "my beloved one").
Music in the gulf region (locally referred to as "Khaleeji" Music) have many genres and rhythms this song is a great example of Khaleeji folklore genre called "Samri", it's usually used with melancholic poetry/lyrics.DOWNLOAD the MP3 at 192 KBPS (4shared host)

Singer: Thekra (Arabic script: ذكرى)Lyrics by: Turki Composed by: Tariq Mohammed (Rumors says that the composer and the poet are the exact person but he is using a nick name since he is a prince).My beloved, can you see where did you end up and where did I?
My beloved one; you've left me alone and I am lost since then!
My beloved one, everything about me was changed..
Everybody knew about it; I used to say love does not exist but now I admit it...LOVE DO EXIST!
My wishes and youth were extinguished...I am weak as a skinny tree standing against a great storm...
Sigh...If a kid listen to my depressing story he will have a grey hair instantly!
My beloved one, I wish when you left; you took "my longing" with you to comfort both of us!
But instead you left me with depression and wounds.
This is one more tribute for Thekra (may her soul rest in heaven)...

Song name: "Ma Feeni Shai" (Arabic script: ما فيني شي)Album: Thekra 2 (Arabic script: ذكرى 2)

I am ok, my beloved one don't worry about me..
It's just a tiny wound on the tip of my finger...
It's will heel very soon and it's might leave no scar at all If your hand touched mine!
You made laugh!
I wonder what will you do if you actually saw the wounds of my heart?!
I wonder what will you do if you saw the mountains of depression which I am carrying on my chest?!
If you felt how much my soul is thirsty for happiness; You would be stunned by my resistance to despair!
The despair which I've been through in my life time is not tiny!
Don't let my fake smile fool you because my heart is drunk with sadness!
Sadness wouldn't let me alone even for one single moment!
I am sorry my beloved one...
The wound of my heart is so deep; it's forced me to let it out and share it with you.
Please don't blame my heart because it's felt sorry for it self!
Exactly three years ago (on 28th of November 2003), she was murdered by her
husband MAY HE BURN IN HELL, NO MATTER HOW MUCH I HATE I CAN NOT HATE HIM ENOUGH.
I am still denying the fact that her little heart is not pulsing anymore.
I know you might think "What a shallow guy?!" he feel sorry for a singer, despite the fact that she is one of my favorite ones all time but she left this world in a drastic way murdered with 16 bullets using a machine gun :(
I really wish I could do anything to get her back, but that's her destiny...
And it's my destiny to feel bad for her lost...
People always said "Life goes on" but that doesn't work with me specially with the cruel way she left, I might need more time If not forever to get over it :(
I loved her since the first time I heard her in the early 1990s.
People didn't know her value and what a great voice she had until she passed away.
May her soul rest in heaven.
Her last album released only 3 days before her death, in her last music video of the song "Youm Alaik" (Translation: "A Day against you" or "A rainy day") she seemed like she knew her future and what's her destiny; she almost sound like she was singing the very last days of her life!

Is that really you?!
I didn't recognize you!
It's the first time I see you through my eyes…I used to see you through my heart!
It's the first time my hands doesn't shake, while you are sitting beside me!
It's the first time I feel that I am not flying, while I am with you!
It's the first time I notice that you are way smaller than the great "sky dome" of my dreams!
It's the first time I notice that you are just a typical human being not an angel!
It's the first time I notice that I lost my whole lifetime with you!
Is that really you?
I can't believe it!
Is that really you?!
Is that really you?!
