ريتني تنباك معسل
وتحرقيني بارجيله
و مهما عندك اتوسل
عني الجمره ما تشيلي
و من قلك من الحرق بخاف
صلي النفس ما يوقف
والدخنه توصل عشفاف
شفافك يا التسلميلي

ريتني تنباك معسل
وتحرقيني بارجيله
ومهما عندك اتوسل
عني الجمره ما تشيلي
و حس بحالي ربحت الكاس
واول مين شفافك باس
ويشهدولك كل الناس
بحنلك وتحنيلي
ريتني تنباك معسل
و تحرقيني بارجيله

ومهما عندك اتوسل
عني الجمره ما تشيلي
