My current non-stop-playing-in-loops-song or as i call it for short my national anthem...very full with love, specifically the bold part is beautifully written and performed, the music is amazing...the military beats at the beginning qanun on house beats is something very new and and original...This is one of the reasons I love Latifa...The way she mixes different things in such a harmony.

انا عشت عمرى للحظة دي 

I lived my life until this moment

من بدرى عارفة أن أنت ليا 

From early on I knew that you are mine 

خبيت فى قلبى أحساسى بيك 

I hid in my heart my feelings to you 

أحنا الليلادى بس أبتدينا 

Tonight, we just begun 

الحب كله راح يبقى لينا 

The whole love will belong to us 

أنا عمرى كله هعيشه ليك 

I will live my whole life devoted to you 

أحلى حاجة أنت فى حياتى 

You are the most beautiful thing in my life 

طب بس جرب وأطلب حياتى 

Give it a try and ask for my life 

أديهالك 

I will give it to you 

ماتغلاش عليك 

It's not more precious than you 

اه ياحب دنيا أنت اللي فيها 

Oh, I love the life that you exists into it 

كل السعادة هتلاقيها 

All the happiness you will find 

مبسوط حبيبي وأنا بين أيديك 

Are you happy baby, while you have me between your hands?

ربنا يقدرنى وأقدر أسعدك 

May God give me enough strength so I can make you happy 

بس شاور 

Just point out to me... 

قولى أية نفسك فى أية 

And tell me what would you like to have? 

هكتب ميلادى يوم ماألتقينا 

I will re-write my birthday to the day we met 

يومها القمر كان شاهد علينا 

That day the moon was our witness 

وهقيد فى شمعة حبى الوحيد 

And I will lit the candle of my one and only love 

أنا قلبى شافك قبل عينى 

My heart saw you, before my eyes did 

وفضلت باستناك تجيى 

And I waited for you to come 

دا يوم لقانا بقى عندى عيد 

The day we met became my "Eid"

#mynationalanthem | #نشيدي_الوطني

You know how sometimes you talk to someone and everything that comes of their mouth sounds like something you might feel or say if you were good at expressing your self with words?

Not everything of course have to be expressing my exact feelings, but it's nice to know that others might have thoughts that could align with yours, knowing that they might think the same way you think, it sort of makes you feel less lonely...Specially if it was told or written in a poetic way.

Sometimes that happens to me when hear certain words or phrases said by others, or when I listen to certain songs, new or an old one that I never heard before...I get so touched by it and it's stuck in my head listening to it over and over and over again, and that could last for weeks...

Most of the time because It touches me on so many levels, the music or maybe an instrument in it...Or the lyrics sometimes expresses a way I felt or feel in the most beautiful way I could've imagined, or maybe an idea I've never thought of before but if I would have written it my self, it would be in that exact words/way...It could also be certain feelings I have because of the way the singer brought the words to life.

I call each of those songs #mynationalanthem (#نشيدي_الوطني)

So in the future if you see any of my posts with the hashtag #mynationalanthem (#نشيدي_الوطني) , and you are into songs with lyrics such as "who let the dog out who who who who" or "who run the world, girls"...Just don't bother and read anything I ever post.

Keep in mind that my national anthem are things that I didn't write my self but they are my translations, things I write my self will not have that hashtag and I am always referring to them as "living words" and since they are original content I am assuming they I don't have to point it out
