Sabreen - Ramallah | صابرين - رام الله

قتلوني و لاموني لإني حكيت
من بعد ما مشيت طول عمري الحيط الحيط
سألوني شو يلّي تغير فيك ؟
حتى الخبز و النوم ما عاد يكفيك

الخبز ما بعيّش و النوم ما بفيّق إنسان
و الروح الحرة بتعمّر أوطان

ملّيت من الكذب خلينا نكون واضحين
ب زمانو الظلم ما بميّز لون أو دين
بالعتمة ما بعيش إلا ضحية و سجان
و الروح الحرة بتعمّر أوطان

بالعتمة ما بعيش إلا ضحية و سجان
و الروح الحرة بتعمّر أوطان

They've killed me!
and then blame me for telling.
After I've spent my life walking
beside the walls.
They asked me "what's that has changed in you?; so bread and sleep are not enough anymore for you."

Bread doesn't give man a life,
nor sleep would wake him up!
And the free soul builds home.

I had enough lies,
so let's just be clear!
Injustice and oppression don't recognize a color or a religion..
In the darkness, there's no life
but for a victim and its tormentor..
And the free soul builds home.

In the darkness, there's no life
but for a victim and its tormentor..
And the free soul builds home.

الكلمات:
هوّر يا بو الهوارة
دبرها ومالا دوبارة
ناس بتمشي مافي وين
مافي وين
وناس بتمشي لورا
وناس بتمشي لورا

هوّر يا بو الهوارة
شو صاير حتى صغرت هالحارة؟
ناس عيونا بردانين
وعيون زاغت، وينا يا ترى؟
وعيون زاغت، وينا يا ترى؟

وأنا حاير بين المستنيين
بين المكاتيب، شو كاتبلي؟
شو كاتبلي؟

دور يابا، دور ودوّرنا
بنظراتك في نظرات بتشبهنا
لو منّك منّا ما شفناك
ما شفناك
ولو منّك إلنا ما التقينا
ولو منّك إلنا ما التقينا

وأنا حاير بين المستنيين
بين المكاتيب، شو كاتبلي؟
شو كاتبلي؟

شو كاتبلي

لأني شاب-نادين

أجاكو الغول
شوي مشغول
شوي مسطول
أجاكو الغول 
مش عارف لشو 
صحيتوه

والشمس
حامية ع راسي الشمس
مش شايفة قدامي من الشمس
وانت وين بهالحم؟
بهالحم في دم
بهالحم في دم


والشمس
حامية ع راسي الشمس
مش شايفة قدامي من الشمس
بتحكيلي راح كله ينحل
حاسة كلشي عم ينشل
وانت وين بهالحم؟
بهالحم في دم
بهالحم في دم

Here comes the monster
a little busy, a little dizzy
here comes the monster
doesn’t know why it was awaken
And the sun
too hot for my head
that sun
I can’t see in front of me
from the sun
and where are you in this heat?
in this heat there’s blood
in this heat there’s blood
And the sun
too hot for my head
that sun
I can’t see in front of me
from the sun
And the sun
too hot for my head
that sun
I can’t see in front of me
from the sun
you keep telling me everything will be alright
I feel like I’m paralysed
and where are you in this heat?
where are you in this heat?
in this heat there’s blood
in this heat there’s blood

Lyrics: كلمات

تع نسبح بالغابة
ونولع نار
ونضيع علأرض
ونحب الأشجار 
نتمرجح علأغصان 
نشرب كاس السلام 
ونغني للورد
ونغني...


تع نركض بالغابة
نلغي الأشرار
نتعبى بلأحلام 
نسرح بالمنام

إيدينا ببعض
ونروح لغاد 
ونروح...ونكون
ونكون أنا وانت 
سوا بهلغابة
