Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ونطرتك حتى الجارة عرفت شو عندي اسرار
قلتلي جايي زيارة حطيت الركوة عالنار
ونطرتك حتى الجارة عرفت شو عندي اسرار
بردت قهوتنا وناموا أهل الحي ونام الليل
فوق مخدات نجومو وعيوني تتخيل خيل
تحملّي منك اخبار
*موسيقى*
وما جاني منك مرسال يسأل عني بهاك البرد
يتطمن كيف الاحوال كيف الشتوية بهالجرد
وما جاني منك مرسال
يسأل عني بهاك البرد
يتطمن كيف الاحوال
كيف الشتوية بهالجرد
حتى لما داب التلج رجعت الركوة عالنار
قلتلي جايي زيارة حطيت الركوة عالنار
ونطرتك حتى الجارة عرفت شو عندي اسرار
*موسيقى*
عصفور الصحو الازرق خلاني اسبق حالي
ونزلت نطرتك عالمفرق وصار يضيعني خيالي
عصفور الصحو الازرق
خلاني اسبق حاالي
نزلت نطرتك عالمفرق
وصار يضيعني خيالي
حتى النجوم ال بالعالي رميولي القمر زنّار
قلتلي جايي زيارة حطيت الركوة عالناااار
ونطرتك؛ حتى الجارة عرفت شو عندي اسرار
قلتلي جايي زيارة حطيت الركوة عالنار
ونطرتك حتى الجارة عرفت شو عندي اسرار
يا ليلي يا لييل ياا ياااا لييل
قلتلي إنك جاايي
ااه اه
