Lyrics and translation Fairouz - La Wallah La Bamba




La Wallah La Bamba
La Wallah La Bamba
يا ليل يا عين
Oh night, oh my eyes,
كلمي كلمي يا حبيبي تافهم عليك
Talk, talk my love, so I can understand you.
او فتش علي غيري بيفهم اذ رح تبا هيك
Or look for someone else who understands, if you're going to be like this.
يكون بحكي بسرعة ادك تيستوعب ليك
Someone who speaks quickly, so your mind can grasp it.
بتشارع ضيعة يا حبيبي
You're getting lost, my love,
و ما بتادر عليك
And you don't realize it.
بدك دولة او شي امي او اكبر من هيك
You need a country, or something bigger, even bigger than that.
يمكن كوكب او شي اكبر تيستوعب ليك
Maybe a planet, or something bigger, for your mind to grasp.
لك بس وهو هي
Because you, that's it.
وين بعلمي لعقل كبير مش زم و غم و هم زمب و ادح و تشهير بتحكي فوي بحكي فواك شو رح نستفيد
Where do I teach a big mind, not about whining, sadness, worries, jumping, and slander? You talk, I talk back, what will we gain?
سداني يوما عن يوما حكيك عم بيزيد
Day after day, your talk is increasing.
بتالي بضلي تعيدي و انت عم تعيد
So you keep repeating, and you keep repeating.
و ماكد ديما من كلشي و ما في شي اكيد
And you're always unsure of everything, and nothing is certain.
بشرني باسعد مستقبل امنلو سعيد
Promise me a happy future, let it be happy.
هو عشر عصفير عالشجرة و ما في واحد بالايد
It's like ten birds on a tree, and none in the hand.
ولك بس هو هي وين ... ... ...
Because you, that's it... ... ...
لا والله
No, by God,
يا ريت بتعمل شي عملا كلو عل سكيت
I wish you would do something, anything, in silence.
حج تدخن دخني بوجي و لو بي دخين ليت
If you want to smoke, smoke a pipe, even if it's a clay pipe.
كيف طل لورد بشباكي مع انو ما دايت
How did a rose appear on my window, even though it didn't come?
يا ريت انت و انا بل بيت
I wish you and I were in the same house,
بس كل واحد بميل
But each one is in a different direction.
فعلا حلوي هل غنية بس جد نسميت
Really, this song is beautiful, but seriously, what's it called?
