إيه تعا نبلشا هيك

تكة راح يوقف قلبي
دخيلك يا ربي وشو حلوة عينيها
بضحكة بتنسيني همي
وعم تمشي بدمي

تكة راح يوقف قلبي

دخيلك يا ربي وشو حلوة عينيها
بضحكة بتنسيني همي
وعم تمشي بدمي
وراح موت عليها

بحبها بغار عليها بجن بذوب
قلبي ملكها بإسمها مكتوب
وقفت ها الدنيا عندها
بتكفيني هي وحدها
الحب اللي بقلبي بده خمس قلوب
