Lyrics and translation Mahmoud El Esseily - Eshtaghalony

Eshtaghalony

الغربة نسيتنى انى كان لى حب فى مصر
جريت ورا الشعر الاصفر والعيون الخضر
وياما قولت على بناتنا السلامة
وياما سيبت احلى ابتسامة
روحت هناك لقيتنى فى حته من الجنة
من كل صنف ولون القلب يتمنى
اشتغلونى وخدونى ع البحر وعطشان رجعونى
يا ناس الحقونى فى البرد بيعونى هدومى
لالالالالالا
يا بنت بلدي حقك عليا
اخد سكينة في قلبي ورصاصه في عينيا
ده انتي .
انتي امي وانتي بنتي
انتي .
انتي اللي في قلبي سكنتي
اشتغلونى وخدونى ع البحر وعطشان رجعونى
يا ناس الحقونى فى البرد بيعونى هدومى
اشتغلونى وخدونى . يا ناس الحقونى
اشتغلونى وخدونى ع البحر وعطشان رجعونى
يا ناس الحقونى فى البرد بيعونى هدومى
لالالالالالا
اشتغلونى وخدونى . يا ناس الحقونى

Eshtaghalony

Alienation made me forget that I had a love in Egypt
I ran after blonde hair and green eyes
And how often I rejected our Egyptian girls
And how many beautiful smiles I left
I went there and found myself in a heavenly place
With every type and color that the heart desires
They made me work and took me to the beach, then brought me back thirsty
Oh people, save me! In the cold, they're selling me my clothes
La la la la la
My Egyptian girl, you have a right over me
Take a knife to my heart and a bullet to my eye
Because you,
You are my mother and my daughter
You,
You who dwell in my heart
They made me work and took me to the beach, then brought me back thirsty
Oh people, save me! In the cold, they're selling me my clothes
They made me work and took me, oh people, save me
They made me work and took me to the beach, then brought me back thirsty
Oh people, save me! In the cold, they're selling me my clothes
La la la la la
They made me work and took me, oh people, save me
