Ghir khoudouni
Nass El Ghiwane Lyrics

غير خودوني
Other than me

يا ذا الرِّيْم منها مَوْلـُـوعْ مَرْحَبْتِي به إلى جَانِـــــي
O you that are saturated with the scent of the desired, my greetings to you as you approach me.

ولا زلت منها ملســــوع ولو عل لَحْبَل مَشَّانـِــــي
And still soaked in it, even if I have to walk on hot coals.

أدَنْ أدَنْ أدَنْ
Lower, lower, lower

روحي نْهِيبْ لَفـْدَاكم غير خدونـــــــــي
My soul is pledged to you, other than me, for your sake.

مَعْدُوم وُلـْفـِــي . . . لله دلونــــــــــــي
My absent and wandering self...to Allah I entrust it.

ما صابر عل اللي مشاو . . . أنا ما صابر
I cannot tolerate those who have left me...I cannot tolerate.

صفايح ف يدين حداد أنا ما صابـــــــــــر
Tools of mourning in the hands of the ironmonger...I cannot withstand.

قلبي جا بين يدين حــداد حداد ما يْحنْ ما يشفق عليه
My heart is in the ironmonger’s hands, and he shows me no mercy, no compassion.

ينزل ضربة عل الضربة وإلى برد زاد النار عليــــــه
Blow after blow falls, and the cold increases the fire that rages within me.

سيل سيل يا الدم المغدور تراب الأرض محال ينســـــاك
A torrent, a torrent, O blood that has been wronged...the earth’s dust cannot forget you.

وحوش الغابة ترهبات منـــك السم ف الصحاري جافل منك
Wild animals tremble in your presence...the venom in the deserts is useless against you.

دم المغدور ما نْسْلّمْ فيــــــــه حق الظلوم أنا مـــا نــــدوزه
We will not surrender the blood of the wronged...I will never forsake the cause of the oppressed.

يا طاعني من خلفي . . . موت وحدة هي
You who have stabbed me in the back...it's only a matter of time until you die alone.

الله بـــابـــا جاونـــــــي علاش أنا ضْحْيَّة للصمــت
Oh Allah, my father has come to me...why am I a victim of silence?

واش جرى ليه جاوبني مال سفبنتك ما وصلــــــت
What happened to me? Answer me...my message has not reached you.

بابا شكون كَدَّرْ صْفـَـاكْ بابا مول السيف المسلوب
Who tarnished your reputation, my father...my father who wielded the stolen sword?

بابا فين جحا والغــــول بابا عـْيـَّــانــــا لَحْجــِـــــي
Where is Jhah, and the ghoul, my father...our suffering is plain to see.

بابا يسير منين يجــــي بابا وُحـَـــــجْ المقــــــدس
Where is my father headed...my father to the holy pilgrimage?

بابا مشتاق نشوفــــــه بابا نـــــداه ف الكبـــــادي
We long to see him, my father...we call out to him from the hillside.

بابا ونوره ساطـــــع الله بـــــابــــا جاوبنـــــــي
My father and his light shine...Allah answer me, O Baba.

حمودة وابابا حمـودة
Hamouda and our father, Hamouda.

والله بابا حمــــــــودة
And Allah is indeed my father, Hamouda.

هَدِيكْ خَايْتِي وُخِّيْتـِــي وُهَدِيكْ خَايْتِي مظلومـــــة
Those are my siblings, my brothers and my sisters...and they are oppressed and wronged.

هديك رسامي مهجورة وهديك خيمتي مهدومـــة
There is my deserted artist and there is my ruined tent.

لله يا هلي اهل الحــال الشدة تزول ولا محــــــال
For Allah's sake, O my people, the hard times will pass and cannot persist.

هديك أرضي وبــلادي وباش من حق تبـــــعادي
There is my land and my country...can someone rightfully take it away from me?

هيــــة والهمـــاميـــة
Heeh and Al-Himamia.

ميموني ما يموت
Mimouni does not die.

المحبة ما تموت
Love never dies.

الخير ما يموت
Goodness never dies.

العدل ما يموت
Justice never dies.

السلام ما يموت
Peace never dies.

والله والله وابابا
And Allah and Allah and Baba.
