Main Music Sample \a grace a/ Sanaa' Musa.

كلمات: ماكي مكّوك

مع شراع البحر جاءت
تحمل شعاع الشمس
إلى تلال العاشقين
إلى بلاد المجانين

يا لها من رياح
يا له من صباح
يا له من مكان
يا له من زمان

أن تعبد هو أن تحب وجود الذات في الكون
نعبد الشمس نعم، نعبد الشمس
 ونعبد كثيرا من الذوات اللاتي يجلبن لنا النور في الظلام

أعيني جودا ولا تجمدا ألا تبكيان لصخر الندى**
ألا تبكيان الجريء الجميل ألا تبكيان الفتى السيدا**

أعيني جودا بالدمع فما يريحني أسير في مقلتيك
ألا تذرفان زجاجا في قلبي
أفلا تكفا عن الصب
أفلا تكفا عن الصب في روحي كل ما في نفسي

يا لها من رياح 
يا له من صباح
يا له من مكان
يا له من زمان

** بيتين من شعر الخنساء اتعلمناهم في المدرسة لانهرينا
السامبل الأصلي من سناء موسى- لا تتطلعي

رحيل - Exodus (Sun glitters prod.)

This album chronicles the journey of a young woman in 1950s Paris. Each track tells a simple, story about letting go of yesterday, holding a keepsake memory, and choosing hope as the sun comes up.

-هَنا-

يا ام الخُلخال
والكُحل الأسود في العيون 
الدَّمِع مِحتال 
وبلَحظة هالعُمُر بِخون

أعطيني ايدك
اسمحيلي برقصة
سِتي يا حلوة
يا إم الحَطَّة

ضُميني في حُضنك 
إحكيلي قصة
حَتوتة صغيرة 
تدَفيلي بُكرا

هَنا 
إنتِ وانا
دَواير بِتدور، بِتدور
بتدوِّر على نفسها 
في العيون

- Hana - 

You with the anklet
and the black eyeliner
tear drops are a cunning thing

and in a moment life cheats us. 

Give me your hand,
allow me to have this dance
grandma you beauty
with your scarf
put me in your arms
tell me a story
a little story
to warm my tomorrow

Hana,
you and me
we’re circles
going round and round
looking for themselves
in the eyes.

-بركان-

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

- Burkan - 

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
