"Min Hobi Fik ya Gari"
With Love for You My Neighbor
From the CD "Leila Presents: Helwa"
Translation courtesy of Nora
Min hobi feek ya gari, ya gari men zaman
Akhaby el sho wa dary le arafo el geran
(Repeat)
With my love for you my neighbor, my long time neighbor
I hide my longing for you so the neighbors don't find out
Akhaby el sho wa dary adary le arafo el geran
I hide my longing for you so the neighbors don't find out
***** music *****
Youm netsadef al selem, la tesabah wala tesalem
Youm netsadef al selem, la tesabah wala tesalem
When we happen to meet on the stairs, you don't say good morning or hi
When we happen to meet on the stairs, you don't say good morning or hi
Alby beyoros bel farha wal donia ter hawelaya
Marafash fein kont rayah ya habeby wala gay
My heart dances with joy and the world spins around me
I don't know where you were going or coming from
(Repeat all from after musical break)
Akhaby el sho wa dary adary le arafo el geran
I hide my longing for you so the neighbors don't find out
***** music *****
Wa hayat hobak mashabak men shibak le shibak
(repeat)
Wa aiyoun tefham wa teshawar
Wa daweb sho wa gafak
Wa aiyoun tefham wa tehawer
Wet salem waya nesa
And our eyes understand and point to each other
And melt in love and you are being hard to get
And our eyes understand and make eye contact
And they meet but you seem to forget
Wa akheby el sho wa dary adary le arafo el geran
I hide my longing for you so the neighbors don't find out
