يا الله على الرقة والجمال

يا إلاهييي أنا والياسمينة ف غنية واحدة 😭🫂🪞🌾

يا ليل لا تروح إذا بان النهار بتبان الجروح

-يا ليل لا تروح-

كان يا ما كان
بيت وبستان
ملان الوان هالبستان
ابيض ياسمين
وفلة كمان
احمر برقوق ورمان
اخصر اصيل
الصبر والتين
جنة مليانة الحان
فجأة 
ما بعرف شو صار
حن هالسنبل ومال

شوي شوي يا ليل لا تروح
اذا بان النهار بتبان الجروح

ابيض ياسمين
وفلة كمان
احمر برقوق ورمان
اخصر اصيل
الصبر والتين
جنة مليانة الحان
اسود
ولا مرة الليل بِدوم

- Ya Layl La Trouh (O night don’t go)-

Long ago
there was a house and a garden
a garden full of colours
white of jasmine
and gardenias too
red of poppies and pomegranates
green, pure
of cactus and fig
a paradise full of song
suddenly,
I don’t know how,
wheat stalks in their longing bent

Wait, o night
wait, don’t go!
once daylight comes
our wounds will show (repeated)

white of jasmine
and gardenias too
red of poppies and pomegranates
green, pure
of cactus and fig
a paradise full of song.
black
never once does the night last.
