نجوى كرم هيدا حكي Hida Haky
Najwa Karam Lyrics

The song "Hida Haky" by Najwa Karam is about a passionate love between two people who are so infatuated with each other that they both forget themselves. The song begins with the repetitive line "Hida Haky, Hida Kelam," which means "This is my story, this is my speech." The singer then describes the intense love between these two people as "Hida ʿushk, Hida ghiram," which means "This is love, this is passion."

The singer is asking the one she loves to take control of her and let his madness take over, even if it means burning down the kingdom they are in, as she sings "Jinn wa hally nasinny, khalli jinunk yʿadyinni, wabimmalketik khalliny, ahraq ʿarshin almamlakah, Hida Haky."

The second verse describes the effect of her lover's gaze and words, which are like a lethal weapon, constantly killing her and yet flirting with her. They both seem to be lost in this intense love, and the singer wants her lover to know that he has her heart and she's willing to go anywhere with him. She sings, "Bila Haky rimshek qatil, kif lamma btehky wabtighazal, ʿem tekhtelny wbteghazalny, wabtisʾalny shu ʿamel" ("Without words, your eyelashes are deadly, how when you talk and flirt, you are killing me with your words and asking what I am doing").

The song continues with the chorus, reiterating the same messages about love and passion. Overall, the song expresses the overwhelming power of love and the desire to give oneself up to it completely, even if it means losing control.
