Paroles et traduction Mohamed Mounir - Ali Elewa

Ali Elewa

علي عليوة، (ياللي) ضرب الزميرة، (ياللي)
وضربها حربي، (ياللي) نطت في قلبي، (ياللي)
قلبي رقاص، (ياللي) في بلاد الناس، (ياللي)
والناس مجاريح، (ياللي) من عكس الريح، (ياللي)
والريح هردانة، (ياللي) لا تبوح بأمانة، (ياللي)

وأمانة يا خلي (ياللي) تعشق وتقولي (ياللي)
على قصعة حنة (حنة) في جنينة حنا (حنا)
حنا وزان، (ياللي) عند السلطان (ياللي)
سلطان هبوش (هبوش، هبوش)
أبو ذمة فاشوش (شوش شوش شوش)

السبحة في إيده (ياللي) بيعد عبيده (ياللي)
وعبيده كتار، (ياللي) زنهار زنهار (ياللي)
زنهار أفراح (ياللي، ياللي، ياللي)
يكالوا التفاح (ياللي، ياللي، ياللي)
وصفوف مساكين، (ياللي) ضايعين ضايعين (ياللي)
في الفرح ناسينا (يا السلطان)
وفي همة داعينا (يا السلطان)
يسرق ضحكتنا (يا السلطان) ويبوح غناوينا (يا السلطان)

غناوينا عذاب (ياللي) من الباب للباب (ياللي)
وعذابنا حنان (ياللي) مش للسلطان (ياللي)
سلطان الشوم (ياللي) سرق الفيوم (ياللي)

وخدوه محتار، من الدار للنار
نصبوله الزار، (نصبوله الزار)
نصبوله الزار، (نصبوله الزار)
نصبوله الزار، نصبوله الزار
نصبوله الزار

Ali Elewa

Ali Elewa, (baby) who played the zummara, (baby)
And played it so well, (baby) it made my heart skip a beat, (baby)
My heart is a dancer, (baby) in the land of people, (baby)
And people are wounded, (baby) by the changing wind, (baby)
And the wind is wild, (baby) it doesn't keep secrets, (baby)

And a secret, my beloved, (baby) that you love and tell me, (baby)
On a henna bowl, (henna) in a henna garden, (henna)
Henna and color, (baby) with the sultan, (baby)
Sultan Hoboosh, (Hoboosh, Hoboosh)
Father of a rotten soul, (Shhh, Shhh, Shhh)

The prayer beads in his hand, (baby) he counts his slaves, (baby)
And his slaves are many, (baby) take care, take care, (baby)
Take care of the joys, (baby, baby, baby)
They eat the apples, (baby, baby, baby)
And the rows of poor people, (baby) they are lost, lost, (baby)
In the joy we forget, (O sultan)
And in our worries we remember you, (O sultan)
He steals our laughter, (O sultan) and reveals our songs, (O sultan)

Our songs are agony, (baby) from door to door, (baby)
And our agony is tenderness, (baby) not for the sultan, (baby)
Sultan of misery, (baby) who stole the Faiyum, (baby)

And he took him, confused, from the house to the fire
We will set up the zar for him, (set up the zar for him)
We will set up the zar for him, (set up the zar for him)
We will set up the zar for him, set up the zar for him
We will set up the zar for him
