Lyrics and translation Mike Massy - Ya Emmi




Ya Emmi
Ya Emmi
كان يا مكان
It was once upon a time
لا من قديم ولا زمان
Not so long ago
كان عندي رفيق يا امي
I had a friend, my dear
نحلم أنا وياه
We had dreams to share
ولما اختلفوا الكبار
But then the adults disagreed
وما عادوا اخوان
They were no longer brothers
حجبت هالغيمة السودا عنا الأمان
A dark cloud covered us, taking away our safety
رفيقي حمل البارودة
My friend took up arms
و صاوب بالنيشان
And aimed his rifle
أما أنا فصاروا ينادولي
But they called me
جبان جبان جبان
A coward, a coward, a coward
مش خايف أنا من الموت يا امي
I'm not afraid to die, my dear
ويلي مصبرني عالوجع مش اني
It's not that which makes me hesitate
لا فيي اكسر بجناح البيت
I cannot break the family apart
ولا اعتم عتيابك بالأسود
Or see you dressed in black
يا امي
My dear
