رسالة
دزناك رسالة بس وين صارت؟
خوش فكرة...بالزبالة
اختار كلماتنا و سوالف وحدك
علگ المراية على الحايط
بس تريد الي تريد
و غيابك يزيد
بس تريد الي تريد
شعبالك يفيد؟
دزناك رسالة بس وين صارت؟
خوش فكرة، گلتَ طارت
و بعيد ميلادك أخاف أخابرك،
لن ماكو مجال باقي بداخلك
بس تريد الي تريد
و غيابك يزيد
بس تريد الي تريد
شعبالك يفيد؟
[translation]
resala (letter)
[verse 1]
we sent you a letter
but where did it end up?
nice idea…
in the trash
choose our words
and our stories
on your own
you’ve hung the mirror on your wall...
[chorus 1]
you only want what you want
while your absence grows
you only want what you want
and you think this helps?
[verse 2]
we sent you a letter
but where did it end up?
nice idea…
you said it “flew away”
on your birthday
i was scared to call
because there’s no space
left inside of you
inside of you
[chorus 2]
you only want what you want
while your absence grows
you only want what you want
and you think it helps?

يلمع
نفس البيت
نفس الفراش
نفس العالم
يلمع
صوت الجهال
من الشباچ
منه
كلنا صغار
طيارات
فوقنا
يرسمون
بالسموات
اشكال مختلفة
و كل شي
يلمع
نفس النوم
بلى احلام
ما نحتاجهم من
كل شي
گدامنا
بالعالم
يلمع
گام يلمع
اذا يبقى هيچ
[translation]
yalma (shining)
the same house
the same bed
the same world
it all shines
the sound of kids
from the window
from here
we’re all small
airplanes
overhead
drawing
different shapes
in the sky
and everything
it all shines
the same sleep
without dreams
but we don’t need them when
everything
in front of our eyes
shines
it starts
to shine
if it stays this way
what more could we ask for?

خاتل
گلت احسن ما اجاوب
التليفون على الميز
أبقى خاتل بالغرفة
بس انا صوتي و المراية
و ما ينطي مجال
شلون يصير رجال
اذا خايف من الناس
اذا خايف منا
دائمًا معلوگ الراديو
و اتغدى بالفراش
باحلامي انا باقي
عوف الاكل يم الباب
و ما ينطيك مجال
شلون يصير رجال
اذا خايف منا
اذا خايف من الناس
اذا خايف منا
اذا خايف يطلع
[translation]
hiding
i said it's better not to answer
the phone on the table
and stay hiding in my room
me, my voice, and the mirror
"if he won't give us a chance
how can he become a man?”
"if he's scared of us"
"if he's scared to leave"
the radio's on
so i’ll take my lunch in bed
and remain in my dreams
…you can set the food by the door
if i won't give you a chance
how will i become a man?
if i'm scared of you
if i'm scared of the others
if i'm scared to leave

واصل
لگيتلي امل بس ما ادري شصار
اختفى القمر و ويا الاحلام
رشيت الحديقة حتى يطلعلي الوان
بس بلى الشمس الزهرة تخاف
ف كلت وينك؟
اشو ماكو؟
ما احس شي
شلون اغني عن بلادي
و انا ما شايف غير القهر
ف كلت وينك؟
اشو ماكو؟
ما احس شي
[translation]
wasal (got it)
[verse 1]
i found me some hope
but i don’t know what happened…
the moon disappeared
and took my dreams with it
i watered the garden
to bring out its color
but without the sun
the flowers they hide
[chorus]
so i said “where are you?”
you’re not around
i don’t feel a thing
[verse 2]
how can i sing about my country
when all i’ve seen is its pain?
[chorus]
so i said “where are you?”
you’re not around
i don’t feel a thing

the weight of the moon pulls…
