ضلمه ؟
مل من الوحدة صورهم ماليه الشقه
عيد ميلاده لوحده و لسه خلاص مش فارقه!
عينيه مليانه دموع
تورته و حبة شموع
بكاه علي كل شئ كان سايبه خلاص و مش هيعود
بعد ال 20 ب 3 سنين كان سنه
و شاف كتير أكمنه
ملوش غير نفسه
مشافش ابوه الا صور
جواباته عملها صور
و في سلة جمب المكتب
يحدف كل جواب قال عبر
بعت جوابات للسما
يدعي و علي كتافه جبل
مفيش لرجوعهم فرصه صح لكن كان عنده امل
حافظ علب نفسه زمن
لسه فيه النفس يكتب تاني و يكتب
مش مهم طالما هينسي الالم
بابا!
بيقولوا اني أشبهك
في كل ليل برسمك
شوفتك في كل اب صاحب ليا
وكان نفسي اكلمك
علي فكره بقيت أشبهك حبه بالنضاره
زي ما ما ماما ورتني قبل ما تجيلك صورتك ف الصاله
قولها ، انا في بنت بحبها
غلي فكره ممكن تسأل عنها
ممكن كمان تكون جمبها
شوفت بقي ان ابنك راجل جدع
استحمل هم ما شاله حد في سنه
و عمره فيوم ما يأس
بالمره سلم علي هيما وحشني
مجاش م الجيش بيقولوا مات
وبقي شهيد شرفني
ادعيلي! زي زمان و غنيلي
تفتكر كلكم فوق هنا محدش يعرفني

It's so dark?
I'm so tired of being alone. Their pictures fill the apartment.
He's alone on his birthday and he doesn't even care anymore!
His eyes are full of tears,
His cake and a single candle,
He cries over everything he left behind and will never return.
After 20 by 3 years was his age,
And he saw many places.
He only has himself left.
He only saw his father in pictures,
He made pictures of his answers,
And in a basket next to his desk,
He throws every question he has ever sent,
He sent letters to heaven,
Praying and carrying a mountain on his shoulders.
There is no chance of them returning, but he still had hope.
He has protected himself for so long,
He still has the will to write again and again.
It doesn't matter as long as he forgets the pain.
Father!
They say that I look like you,
I draw you every night,
I see you in every friend of mine,
I really wanted to talk to you,
By the way, I became like you, I love nature,
Like what mom showed me before you came to her, your picture in the hall,
Tell me, is there a girl I love?
I wonder if you could ask about her?
Maybe you're next to her,
Look, your son is a great man,
Who has endured more suffering than anyone else his age,
And he has never given up,
Please say hello to Heyma, I miss her,
He never came back from the military, they say he died,
He was a martyr and brought me honor,
Pray for me! Like before, and sing me a song,
Do you think all of you up there don't know me?
