Lyrics and translation Fairuz - Ya Karm Elalali

Ya Karm Elalali

يا كرم العلالي عنقودك لنا . وياحلو يا غالي شو بحبك أنا
ع النهر التقينا وما قلنا لحدا . وتركنا عينينا تحكي ع الهدا
سمعني حكي قالي شو بكي . وطلعلي لبكي يا دلي م كتر الهنا
ع الدرب الطويلي وداني الهوى . بإيدو وميلي تانمشي سوى
صرت بلا وعي شي يقلي تعي . وشي يقلي ارجعي والدنيي عرفت شو بنا
واعدني حبيبي لم بدو يجي . بأسوارة غريبة وعقد بنفسجي
واعدني بقمر وبشوية صور . وباعت لي خبر بيقلي الموسمع الجنا

My Beloved, My Friend

Oh my dear beloved, your grace is like a cluster of grapes for us. Oh my darling, how sweetly I love you
We met by the river and told no one. We let our eyes speak of our secret
You listened to my words and asked me what was wrong. You came to me, my heart filled with joy
On the long road, love led me. By your hand and my will, we walked together
I became unconscious, something telling me to wake up. Another voice told me to go back, and the world knew what was between us
My beloved promised me when he would come. With a strange bracelet and a purple necklace
He promised me the moon and some pictures. And he gave me news telling me that he had come
