Raoui (The Storyteller)

احكي يا الـراوي احكي حكاية، مادابيك اة كون ريواية، احكي لي على ناس زمان
احكي لي على ألف ليلة و ليلة و على لونجة بنت الـغولة، وعلى وليد الـسلطان

حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
و ادّي نا بعيد من هاذ الـدنيا
حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية

احكي و انسا بلّي حنا كبار
في بالك كلّي رانا صغار و ان آمنو كل حكاية
احكي لنا على الـجنّة احكي لنا على الـنار و على الـطير لي عمرهُ ما طار، فهّم لنا معنا الـدنية

حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
و ادّي نا بعيد من هاذ الـدنيا
حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية

احكي يا الـراوي كيما حكاو لك، ما ات زيد ما ات نقّص من عندك، كاين لي اي شفاو و علابالك
احكي و نسّي نا من هاذ الـزمان، خللي نا ف كان يا ماكان، في كان يا ماكان

حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
و ادّي نا بعيد من هاذ الـدنيا
حاجيتْ اك ماجيتْ اك
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية
كل واحد منّا ف قلبهُ حكاية

Raoui (The Storyteller)

Tell me, storyteller, tell me a story. Even if it's just a short one, tell me of the people of old.
Tell me stories of a Thousand and One Nights and of the ogre's daughter's tale, and of the sultan's son.

You came to me, you did not come to me
And here we are, far from all worldly things.
You came to me, you did not come to me
Each one of us has a story in their heart.
Each one of us has a story in their heart.

Tell me and let's forget that we are grown-ups.
In your mind, we are still children, believing every story
Tell us about heaven and hell, and about the bird that never flew. Explain the world to us.

You came to me, you did not come to me
And here we are, far from all worldly things.
You came to me, you did not come to me
Each one of us has a story in their heart.
Each one of us has a story in their heart.

Tell me, storyteller, as they told you, add nothing and take nothing away, I have seen and know a little of the truth.
Tell me and let's forget this era, take us to a time that never was, to a time that never was.

You came to me, you did not come to me
And here we are, far from all worldly things.
You came to me, you did not come to me
Each one of us has a story in their heart.
Each one of us has a story in their heart.
