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.

كان ليّ فين أنا كل ده يا شاغل لي بالي
إيه اللي جرى لي ليه كده بسهر ليالي
كان ليّ فين أنا كل ده يا شاغل لي بالي
قلبي وديته لعذابه
ده اللي معملتش حسابه
آه يا قلبي من اللي فينا مين هيحس بينا
كنت خايفة من غرامك
ياما قالوا الحب قادر ليه كلمة علينا
إيه اللي جرى لي) ليه كده بسهر ليالي)
كان ليّ فين) أنا كل ده يا شغلي بالي)
كان القلب راضي بوحدتي وبعيش في حالي
وبنظرة وحدة شغلتني كان بس مالي
كان القلب راضي بوحدتي وبعيش في حالي
وبنظرة وحدة شغلتني كان بس مالي
قلبي وديته لعذابه
ده اللي معملتش حسابه
آه يا قلبي من اللي فينا مين هيحس بينا
كنت خايفة من غرامك
قلبي توهته بكلامك
ياما قالوا الحب قادر ليه كلمة علينا

The lyrics of Nancy Ajram's song "Eyh Elli Garali" reflect the feeling of confusion and heartbreak of the singer. The opening lines, "Eyh Elli Garali, Leyh Keda Besshar Layali" translate to "What happened to me? Why am I spending my nights awake?" This suggests that the singer is going through a significant emotional struggle, and she cannot understand why.
The lyrics go on to express the singer's dissatisfaction with her current circumstance, wondering where she belongs and why she is consumed by thoughts that distract her from her daily life. "Kan Lai Fein Ana Kol Da Ya Shaghil Li Bali," translates to "Where do I belong? Why am I preoccupied with all this? It is all in my head." It is evident that the singer is battling with herself and her emotions, and she cannot seem to overcome the internal turmoil.
The song's chorus repeats the opening lines, which signify the singer's confusion and the reasons behind it. The second verse reflects the singer's struggle to remain content with her solitude. She sees an opportunity in someone and entertains thoughts about a potential relationship. However, the experience ends up causing more pain than happiness, and she questions herself, asking, "Aih Elly Gerally? Leyh Kida Basahr Layali; Kan Elalb Radi Behawda Wbaashesh Feel Hali" which translates to, "What happened to me? Why am I spending my nights awake? My heart was satisfied with being alone, and it was enough for me."
Overall, Nancy Ajram's song "Eyh Elli Garali" captures the complexity of emotions experienced during a personal crisis, particularly in relationships. The lyrics are relatable and help the listener to connect to the singer's experience.

إيه اللي جرى لي ليه كده بسهر ليالي
What happened to me? Why am I spending sleepless nights like this?
كان ليّ فين أنا كل ده يا شاغل لي بالي
Where did I have peace of mind? All of this is distracting me.
قلبي وديته لعذابه
I gave my heart to its own suffering.
ده اللي معملتش حسابه
This is something I did not anticipate.
آه يا قلبي من اللي فينا مين هيحس بينا
Oh my heart, who among us will feel the pain?
كنت خايفة من غرامك
I was afraid of falling in love with you.
قلبي توهته بكلامك
Your words have confused my heart.
ياما قالوا الحب قادر ليه كلمة علينا
They say love has power over us with just a word.
كان القلب راضي بوحدتي وبعيش في حالي
My heart was content with my solitude and living for myself.
وبنظرة وحدة شغلتني كان بس مالي
But with just one glance, you captured me and I was yours.
