Текст и перевод песни إليسا - أواخر الشتا

أواخر الشتا

كنا في أواخر الشتا قبل اللي فات
زي اليومين دول عشنا مع بعض حكايات
أنا كنت لما أحب أتونس معاه
أنا كنت باخد بعضي وأروحله من سكات
والناس في عز البرد يجروا يستخبو
وانا كنت بجري وأخبي نفسي قوام في قلبه
ولحد لما الليل يليل ببقى جنبه
وأفضل في عز البرد وياه بالساعات
على سهوة ليه الدنيا بعد ما عشمتنا
وعيشتنا شوية رجعت موتتنا
والدنيا من يوميها ياقلبي عودتنا
لما بتدي حاجات قوام تاخد حاجات
وسط الشوارع ناس كتيرة مروحين
والناس ياقلبي هما هما وهو فين؟
وانا ماشية بتلفت وبسأل كل يوم
بيعمل ايه دلوقتي وبيحلم بمين؟
والناس في عز البرد يجروا يستخبوا
وانا كنت بجري وأخبي نفسي قوام في قلبه
ولحد لما الليل يليل ببقى جنبه
وأفضل في عز البرد وياه بالساعات
على سهوة ليه الدنيا بعد ما عشمتنا
وعيشتنا شوية رجعت موتتنا
والدنيا من يوميها ياقلبي عودتنا
لما بتدي حاجات قوام تاخد حاجات

Late Winter

It was late winter a year ago
We shared stories like we’re doing now
Whenever I needed to get away with him
I’d grab what I needed and go to him secretly
As people were shivering from the cold
I used to run and hide myself in his heart
Until the night would fall and I’d be by his side
Despite the cold, I’d stay with him for hours
Why is it, my love, that after making us hopeful
And giving us life for a while, it brought us back to death?
And since then, my love, it has taught us
That whenever it gives something, it takes something else
So many people pass me by in the streets
My love, people are the same; where is he?
Every day, I turn and ask myself
What is he doing now, and who is he dreaming about?
As people were shivering from the cold
I used to run and hide myself in his heart
Until the night would fall and I’d be by his side
Despite the cold, I’d stay with him for hours
Why is it, my love, that after making us hopeful
And giving us life for a while, it brought us back to death?
And since then, my love, it has taught us
That whenever it gives something, it takes something else
