Lyrics and translation Hamza Namira - Shiekh El Arab




Shiekh El Arab
Sheikh El Arab
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
قالي أخوك لن يخونك
He said your brother will not betray you
ده نفس دمك ولونك
He's the same blood and color as you
قول أخ تلقاه فى عونك
Say brother and you'll find him by your side
بيقول ياريت تيجي فيا
He'll say, I wish you were here with me
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
بالليل لمح رمشي ساهر
At night, I saw your eyes wide awake
قال إيه رماك ع السهارى
He said, what made you stay awake?
جرحي نقح قال يا ساتر
My wound was aching, he said, "Oh my God"
إيه تاني خلف الستارة
What else is behind the curtain?
شايل فقلبي كوارث
I carry disasters in my heart
وارث نصيب الحيارى
I inherited the fate of the lost ones
قلبي لا عايش لا حاسس
My heart is neither alive nor feeling
مقطوعة عنه الحرارة
The warmth has been cut off from it
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
ميلت ساعة عصاري
The hour of evening prayer came
سلم وميل عليا
He greeted me and bowed down
لمحت عنيه نهر جاري
I saw your eyes like a flowing river
من سيل دموعي فى عينيا
From the stream of my tears in my eyes
قالي اللي سابك تسيبه
He said, the one who left you, let him go
والقلب هو ونصيبه
Your heart is his and his destiny
اقبل زمانك بعيبه
Accept your time with its flaws
بخته اللي فهم القضية
He is the one who understood the matter
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
الدنيا كيف الصبية
The world is like a girl
اللي بتكبر وتحلى
Who grows up and becomes beautiful
هتزيد فعندك تعاندك
She will increase in your opposition
ترخص لها هي تغلى
You lower yourself for her, she becomes more valuable
ارمي الفلوس تحت رجلك
Throw your money at your feet
ماتشيلش مالك ف حجرك
Don't carry your money in your pocket
وطول ماهو مش فارق لك
As long as it doesn't matter to you
هيزيد مقامك وتعلى
Your status will rise and you will be elevated
يا شيخ العرب
Oh, Sheikh of the Arabs
يابو السباع
Oh, father of lions
يا شيخ العرب أبا العلمين
Oh, Sheikh of the Arabs, father of the two worlds
فيه ناس معادن يا ولدي
There are people who are like precious metals, my son
وناس ولا تساوي معدن
And people who are not worth even metal
وفيه معادن تصدي
And there are metals that resist
ودي اللي قلتها أحسن
That's what I said is the best
المرجلة بالمواقف
Manliness is in the situations
مين اللي في الجد واقف
Who stands firm in difficult times?
بحر الصحاب نبعه جافف
The sea of friends, its source is dry
والندل عينه قوية
And the scoundrel's eye is strong
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
شيخ العرب يوم ناداني
The Sheikh of the Arabs called me one day
وصّاني أجمل وصية
He gave me the most beautiful advice
خليتها حلقة ف وداني
I kept it as a ring on my finger
تنفعني في الدنيا دية
It will benefit me in this world
