Fairuz was born Nouhad Haddad in Jabal al Arz, Lebanon. She began her musical career as a teenager. From chorus girl at the Lebanese radio station in the late 1940s, to critical and popular acclaim from the 1950s to today, Fairuz is acknowledged not only for her musical talent and contribution, but also as a cultural and political icon. A symbol of a people, a heritage, a quest for peace, and of humanity. During most of her career, Fairuz reflected two other great artists, Assi and Mansour Rahbani. They wrote the lyrics and composed her tunes. Today, many of her songs reflect the composing talent of Ziad Rahbani who is Fairuz's son. Her songs testify to the Rahbani musical genius, as well as to Fairuz's broad musical background. Referred to as "The Soul of Lebanon" in the 1970s, Fairuz became a pre-eminent figure, a superstar of current music in the Arab world. Together, the Rahbani family is both a school of music and a cultural phenomenon.

صرنا القصص الغريبة
يا أنا، يا أنا، أنا واياك
وانسـرقت مكاتيبي
وعرفوا اٍنك حبيبي
وعرفوا اٍنك حبيبي
يا أنا، يا أنا هرب الصيف
وإذا ضيعني الهوى شي صيف
بقلبك بتلاقيني
وخـبـيني ولا تخـبـيني
وخـبـيني ولا تخـبـيني
لياليك في عينيّ شبابيك مضوية
سفّـرني حبيبي سفرني بلياليك
وأنا اأول لا تنسى على طول لا تنسى
وعيونك تأخذني وتوعدني بلياليك، لياليك
تركوا، تركوا سهر البال والعاشق لم جناحه
تركوا أساميهم ع الباب على كتب الدمع و راحوا
نسيوا بعضن وارتاحوا
نسيوا بعضن وارتاحوا
يا أنا، يا أنا
يا أنا، يا أنا
يا أنا، يا أنا
أنا واياك
The song Ya Ana Ya Ana by Fairuz is a beautiful and captivating piece that talks about finding love and being lost in it. The repeated phrase "Ya Ana Ya Ana" is a powerful way to convey the intense emotions that the singer is feeling. The song begins by describing the relationship between the two lovers as a strange story, an unusual love that has taken them by surprise. The verse "وانسرقت مكاتيبي" ("my letters were stolen") implies that their love was not meant to happen or be known, but it was inevitable and took its course regardless of obstacles.
The chorus, with its reference to the fleeing summer and the heart that always finds its way back to the lover, highlights the cyclical nature of their relationship. The lover's presence is a safe haven for the singer, a place to hide and be oneself without fear of judgment. The phrase "خبيني ولا تخبيني" ("hide me but don't really hide me") portrays the conflicting emotions of the singer, who wants to be seen and loved for who they are, but also wants to keep their love hidden.
The song goes on to describe the passion and intensity of their love, as well as the sacrifices they have made for each other. The final verses depict the lovers as separate from the world, a unique and separate entity that has its own set of rules and values. They have left behind their former lives and have chosen each other over everything else.
Overall, the song Ya Ana Ya Ana is a beautiful tribute to the power of love and how it can change us and shape our lives. It reminds us that love can be a strange and unexpected journey, but it is always worth taking.

We have become strange stories
وانسـرقت مكاتيبي
And my notes were stolen
وعرفوا اٍنك حبيبي
And they knew that you are my love
هربت عناقيد الزينة
The clusters of beauty have fled
وإذا ضيعني الهوى شي صيف
And if love loses me something in the summer
بقلبك بتلاقيني
You'll find me in your heart
وخـبـيني ولا تخـبـيني
Hide me and do not hide me
لياليك في عينيّ شبابيك مضوية
Your nights in my eyes, illuminating windows
سفّـرني حبيبي سفرني بلياليك
Travel me, my love, travel me with your nights
وأنا اأول لا تنسى على طول لا تنسى
And I, first, don't forget, don't ever forget
وعيونك تأخذني وتوعدني بلياليك، لياليك
And your eyes take me and promise me with your nights, your nights
تركوا، تركوا سهر البال والعاشق لم جناحه
They left, they left the lover lost in thought
تركوا أساميهم ع الباب على كتب الدمع و راحوا
They left their names on the door and left on the books of tears
نسيوا بعضن وارتاحوا
They forgot each other and felt at ease
يا أنا، يا أنا
Oh me, oh me
يا أنا، يا أنا
Oh me, oh me
يا أنا، يا أنا
Oh me, oh me
أنا واياك
Me and you

OH ME, OH ME
Oh me, oh me and you we became the odd stories,
Oh me, oh me and you and my letters were stolen,
and they knew that you were my love,
oh me, oh me the summer ran away and the grapes of decoration ran too,
and if love lost me in one summer in your heart you would find me,
and hide me and don’t hide me,
Your nights in my eyes like lighted windows
make me travel in your nights,
and I would tell you not to forget, never ever forget,
and your eyes would take me and promise me your nights,
They left, they left the night and the lover took in his wing,
they left their names on the door, on the books of tears and left,
they forgot each other and just relaxed.
