Leslie - Amar Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

"قولوا لي فين حبيبي .. فين راح حبيبي
فاتني في عز الشوق .. وأجيله ..
عمر بحاله غلبت .. أناديله ..
وياما داريته برمشي وكنت حبيبه و كنت هواه
والله ما كنت مصدق يمشى ولا يفوتنى الجرح واه
وإزاي ينسى إزاي .. أما صحيح نساي
خدني في عز الشوق .. وأجيله ..
عمر بحاله غلبت .. أناديله ..

داري عليا يا قلبى وقول لي راجع تاني هو المحبوب
ايه من بعده يا قلبي فاضلي صبر حالي على المكتوب
وإزاي ينسى إزاي .. أما صحيح نساي

خدني في عز الشوق .. وأجيله ..
عمر بحاله غلبت .. أناديله .."

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Amar's song "Habibi" express the longing and pain of someone who has lost their beloved. The singer is asking those around them where their Habibi (beloved) has gone, and expresses their own heartbreak at missing them so much. The sense of desperation is palpable as the singer continues to call out to their lost love, pleading with them to return. The repetition of phrases and words like "عمر بحاله غلبت" (I've been worn down) and "أناديله" (I call out to him) emphasizes the depth of the singer's feelings.

The second half of the song continues in a similar vein, with the singer asking how it's possible for their love to forget them or move on. The repeated plea to be taken to their beloved in the midst of their longing and pain highlights the powerlessness the singer feels in the face of their loss. The final lines express a willingness to be patient in waiting for what is written to come to pass, but the sense of longing and loss remains throughout the song.
