Khat El Hayah
Ahmed Gamal Lyrics

مبقاش فاضل لي في قلبي غير دقه
My heart is now empty except for its beating

بيني و بين خط الحياه زقه
Between me and the line of life, there's a gap

قلبي ميملكش الا كلمة اه
My heart possesses only one word, 'sigh'

غصبوه عليها لما قال لأة
Forced to say it when it said 'no'

عايش حياتي بنص قلب عجوز
Living my life in the middle of an old heart

لابس علي وشي قناع اراجوز
Wearing the mask of a clown on my face

دورت علي حظي كتير يا حياه
I searched a lot for my luck, oh life

قطر الحظوظ كله طلع محجوز
All the drops of luck turned out to be reserved

موجوع و ظهري محني من همي
I'm in pain and my back is curved from my worries

راح العسل و الشهد من فمي
The honey and the sweet taste are gone from my mouth

وسكن مكانه مر طعم الصبر
And the bitter taste of patience has settled in

و الدنيا مستحليه كسرتي والمي
And the world became harsh, you broke my glass and my water

جيت الحياه و مكنش ليا انا ذنب
I came to life, but it wasn't my fault

و رضيت اعيش انا دنيتي علي جنب
And I accepted to live my life on the side

الستر كان اخر حدود حلمي اتاريه
Covering myself was the last limit of my dream

في ايامنا خيالي وصعب
In our days, dreams are both imaginary and difficult

الناس تشوف وشي تقول قادر
People see my face and say I'm capable

وتقول حويط فاجر ملوش اخر
But they also say that I'm corrupt and without any limits

وده وش عيرة لابسه وانا مجبور
And this is the face of envy that I have to wear

بعمل لنفسي من الوحوش ساتر
I cover myself with monsters to protect myself

مبقتش عارف نفسي هوا انا مين
I don't know myself anymore, who am I?

ابن الملايكة ولا اخو الشياطين
Am I the son of angels or the brother of demons?

اوقات بخاف مني علي نفسي
Sometimes I'm afraid of myself

معرفش واخداني و رايحة لفين
I don't know where I'm going and what's taking me
