Paroles et traduction كاظم الساهر - الأمل

الأمل

مربع المجد مورق وانيق والليالى من عشقه لا تفيق
حاليات بذكره حاويات حسن مغناه هو عرق عريق
رق فينا وراق ثم تمنى والاماني غصنهن وريق
قد خبرنا الزمان في حالتيه وبلوناه وهو غض رشيق
ليس في عرفناابأن لا نبالي لا ولا خلقنا بخطب يضيق
قال من قال اين منا المرجى وله قلت ها انا يا صديق
لو لاعلى رفعت عينك يوما كنت ابصرتني مكانى عتيق
لم ابدله لم ازل في مداري سائراً والسما لدى الطريق
ان أصاب البلدان قحط وجدب وابتلى اهلها الزمان الصفيق
فهو داب الحياة خير وشر وهو شأن الوجود يسر وضيق
واذا ما سحائب الصيف مرت فدجاهـا لعزمنـا لا يعيق
وانا كل همي شعبي وبحسن الثناء شعبي حقيق
مربع المجد مورق وانيق والليالي من عشقه لا تفيق
حاليات بذكره حاويا، حسن مغناه وهو عرق عريق

Hope

The square of glory is lush and elegant, and the nights do not recover from his love
My memory of him is full of passion, and the beauty of his singing is an ancient lineage
He danced in us and blossomed, then wished, and the branches of wishes are green
We have experienced time in both its states, and we have tested it, and it is tender and graceful
It is not in our nature to not care, nor were we created for a situation that is difficult
Someone said, "Where is our hope?" And I said to him, "Here I am, my friend"
If you had raised your eyes one day, you would have seen me in my ancient place
I did not change it, I am still in my orbit, and heaven is by my side on the way
If the lands are afflicted by drought and famine, and their people are afflicted by the harsh times
Then this is the nature of life, good and evil, and it is the nature of existence, ease and difficulty
And if the summer clouds pass, our determination will not be hindered
And all my concern is my people, and my people deserve the best praise
The square of glory is lush and elegant, and the nights do not recover from his love
The beloved is full of his remembrance, the beauty of his singing is an ancient lineage
