بتشبه عليا مش فاكر عنيا والحب اللي كان
مش فاكر ياغالي الشوق والليالي وحنيه زمان
لو عامل ناسيني هات عينك في عيني
بس انت فاكرني وقلبك ناكرني واللي مابينا هان
ياليلي ياعيني ياليلي ياعيني عالحب اللي كان
ياليلي ياعيني فين راحت ياعيني حنيه زمان
ياللي انت ناسي انا فحياتك كنت ايه
انا حب غالي لسه بتدور عليه

لو عامل ناسيني هات عينك في عيني
بس انت فاكرني وقلبك ناكرني واللي مابينا هان

بتشبه عليا مش فاكر عنيا والحب اللي كان
You're acting like you don't remember who I am and the love we had.

مش فاكر ياغالي الشوق والليالي وحنيه زمان
You're not even remembering the longing, the nights, and the nostalgia we shared.

لو عامل ناسيني هات عينك في عيني
If you're pretending to have forgotten me, then look into my eyes.

بس انت فاكرني وقلبك ناكرني واللي مابينا هان
But you do remember me, yet your heart denies me, and everything between us has collapsed.

ياليلي ياعيني ياليلي ياعيني عالحب اللي كان
Oh, my nights, my eyes, where did the love we had go?

ياليلي ياعيني فين راحت ياعيني حنيه زمان
Oh, my nights, my eyes, where did the nostalgia we shared go?

ياللي انت ناسي انا فحياتك كنت ايه
If you've forgotten who I am, then what was my place in your life?

انا حب غالي لسه بتدور عليه
I'm still searching for the precious love we once shared.

حتنكر ايه وتداري ايه . مهو بان عليك
What are you trying to deny and hide? It's all clear to see.
