Ajram was born on May 16th, 1983 to Nabil Ajram and Rimonda Oun, as the eldest of two siblings, Nadine Nariman Ajram and Nabil Ajram Jr. She started singing at the age of eight, when she appeared for the first time in 1991 at a singing contest for kids on national television in Lebanon. In 1995, at the age of twelve, Nancy Ajram took part in the entertainment show, Noujoum Al-Moustakbal, ("Stars of the Future"), a Lebanese television musical competition, winning a gold medal in the Tarab category after singing a song by Umm Kulthum.
Ajram studied music following her early success with renowned Lebanese musicians and although she was less than 18 years old, the syndicate of professional artists in Lebanon accepted her as a member because they found her to be an exceptional talent and deserved to be qualified as a professional artist. Shortly afterwards Nancy released her first album, Mihtagalak ("I Need You') in 1998, with most of its songs holding a pure Tarab style, thus starting her music career at the age of 15. It was followed by Sheel Oyoonak Anni ("Take Your Eyes Off Of Me") in 2000, which achieved more success.

Nancy Ajram Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ايام تفوت وليالي و لیالی ولا بنساك
بقى كل ده جوايا وهوايا فكراك وباقي عليك
عمال تزيد فيا حنيني واتريني مستنيك
رغم البعاد والله حفضل شريك وانشالله
عمري يضيع يالله يالله وايه يعني فداك
نفسي اشوفك مره في اليوم بموت ميت مره
وحشه الحياه ومره لو مش هعيشها معاك
بشتاق اليك في العادي وقصادي وما بالك وانت بعيد
على طول بعيش في عذابي وتملي قلبي وحيد
وازاي هواك بقى ذكرى دانا فاكره حبك ومابنساكش
والدنيا دي ما هعيش فيها يا معاك يما بلاش
رغم البعاد والله حفضل شريك وانشالله
عمري يضيع يالله يالله وايه يعني فداك
نفسي اشوفك مره في اليوم بموت ميت مره
وحشه الحياه ومره لو مش هعيشها معاك
رغم البعاد والله حفضل شريك وانشالله
عمري يضيع يالله يالله وايه يعني فداك
نفسي اشوفك مره في اليوم بموت ميت مره
وحشه الحياه ومره لو مش هعيشها حبیبی معاك
The lyrics to Nancy Ajram's song Ba'a Koli Da mournfully express the singer's yearning for a lost love. The repeated phrase "بقى كل ده" (ba'a koli da) signifies that everything remains as it was, despite the passage of time. The singer is not forgetting the love that she once had, and she continues to suffer the pain of longing for her beloved. She lives her life according to her love's whims and desires, unable to forget the memories that linger inside of her. She admits that she constantly thinks of him and waits for him day and night. The line "رغم البعاد" (raghma elba'ad), which means "despite the distance," suggests that the separation between them has not lessened her feelings for him. The song's melancholic tone further emphasizes the intensity of her emotions.
As the song progresses, the singer's emotions become more raw and intense. She states that she longs for her love every day and every hour, and that her heart is filled with loneliness as she lives in agony. The line "وازاي هواك بقى ذكرى دانا" (wazay hawak ba'a zekra dannah) suggests that memories of her love are etched deeply into her soul and that she can never forget him. She also admits that she can no longer bear to live in this world without him. Despite this, she hopes that they will be reunited, and that their love will continue, faithful to God.
Overall, Nancy Ajram's Ba'a Koli Da is a poignant expression of love and loss. The lyrics capture the raw pain and intense longing that happen in hearts that have lost a love, and the melody enhances the emotional dimension.
