مرتاح و كبير و مخدر,, تعالي نتمرجح تعالي نتمشى, سؤالي مش موجود
الوان, اموج السما, عم تتغير و لوني بيتحضر اسود موت, انا دايما موجود
قوليلها اني انا دايما موجود, و بدونها كل يوم كان غيوم, لما اموت رح اكون دايما موجود
و لما تفتح عيونها, و تتفرج على الدنيا, بتخبى ورى البرداي, شو حلو هل صباح
و الشمس عم تعكسني, شو اسود مزاجي, بتفرج عل نجوم, يوم الجمعة مجنون

قوليلها اني انا دايما موجود, و بدونها كل يوم كان غيوم, لما اموت رح اكون دايما موجود

اولها رح تكون ايام صعبة, بس انا رح انزل, و المسلك اثيرك, اكيد ما رح تحسي
و الرمل عم يتغلغل, و الشمس عم تتموج و الصورة عم بتموت على بحيرتنا

قوليلها اني انا دايما موجود, و بدونها كل يوم كان غيوم, لما اموت رح اكون دايما موجود

انا اللي فاني متوسط مكاني, عل الارض معاكي, يا حبيبتي يا بنتي
اخد احزاني, اضل معاكي, عل ارض معاكي, يا حبيبتي يا بنتي

باول يوم في صفك لما يساءلوكي, احكيلهم عن ابوكي, و كيف كان يحبك
و وجهه متل وجهك, و انا كتير بحبك, نفسي اكون جنبك, يا يا يا يا بنتي
عل رصيف كنت, و الحادث كان بلحظة
و اللغم اتفجر, و قلبي جاله جلطة

مافي شي بايدي, نعيي بالجريدة
انا كتير بحبك, يا يا يا يا بنتي

Overall Meaning

The opening verse of "Dayman Mawjood" by Akher Zapheer paints a picture of a state of mind that is relaxed, delirious, and inebriated. The singer invites someone to swing and walk around with them, but they don't have a question or concern to ask. The imagery in the second half of the verse describes the colors and waves of the sky changing, with the singer's mood turning as dark as the approaching black of death. Despite this, the singer insists that they are always present and tells the listener to let someone know that they are always there, and without them, every day would be cloudy. When the person they're talking about opens their eyes and takes in the world, the beauty of the morning, and the reflections of the sun, the singer hides behind the rays, and their mood changes. They watch the stars, looking forward to the madness of Friday.

The chorus reiterates the singer's declaration that they are always present and that their absence would make every day gloomy. In the third verse, the singer assures the listener that although the early days without them will be difficult, they will follow them and intersect their path. They will help navigate their way through and make sure they don't feel anything. As the sand shifts and the sun rises and sets, the picture of a dying image on a lake foreshadows the inevitability of loss. The singer once again insists that without the person they're addressing, all days would be cloudy.

The song seems to be about someone who is deeply enamored with someone else, to the point where their life would be incomplete without them. They seem to be declaring their undying love and loyalty, promising to be there through thick and thin, even in death. The imagery used throughout the song is beautiful and poetic, describing the joys and sorrows of life with equal eloquence.

Tell her that I'm always here, without her every day is gloomy, even after death I'll still be here

و لما تفتح عيونها, و تتفرج على الدنيا, بتخبى ورى البرداي, شو حلو هل صباح
And when she opens her eyes and looks at the world, she hides behind the curtain, what a beautiful morning

و وجهه متل وجهك, و انا كتير بحبك, نفسي اكون جنبك, يا يا يا يا بنتي
He has a face like yours and I love you so much, I wish I could be next to you, oh my darling daughter

عل رصيف كنت, و الحادث كان بلحظة و اللغم اتفجر, و قلبي جاله جلطة مافي شي بايدي, نعيي بالجريدة انا كتير بحبك, يا يا يا يا بنتي
I was on the sidewalk, then the accident happened, the bomb exploded, and my heart had an attack, I couldn't do anything, my death announcement was in the newspaper, but I love you so much, oh my darling daughter
