Lyrics and translation Fairuz - Kena Nitlaah

Kena Nitlaah

كنا نتلاقى من عشية
ونقعد على الجسر العتيق
وتنزل على السهل الضبابة
تمحي المدى و تمحي الطريق
ما حدا يعرف بمطرحنا
غير السما و ورق تشرين
ويقل لي بحبك أنا بحبك
ويهرب فينا الغيم الحزين
يا سنين اللي رحتي ارجعي لي
ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
وانسيني ع باب الطفولة
تا أركض بشمس الطرقات
يا سنين اللي رحتي ارجعي لي
ارجعيلي شي مرة ارجعي لي
ورديلي ضحكات اللي راحوا
اللي بعدها بزوايا الساحات
بتذكر شو حكيوا عليي
لما نطرت وإنت نسيت
وصار الشتي ينزل عليي
وإجا الصيف و إنت ما جيت

Kena Nitlaah

We used to meet in the evening
And sit on the old bridge
And the fog would come down on the plain
Obliterating the distance and the path
No one knew where we were
Except the sky and the October leaves
And he would tell me, "I love you, I love you."
And the sad clouds would carry us away.
Oh, years that have passed, come back to me,
Come back to me just once, come back to me,
And leave me at the door of childhood
So that I can run in the sunshine of the streets.
Oh, years that have passed, come back to me,
Come back to me just once, come back to me,
And bring me back the laughter of those who have gone,
Who still haunt the corners of the squares
Reminding me of what they said about me
When I waited and you forgot.
And the winter came down on me,
And summer came and you did not.
