El Rolet
Wael Jassar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
الشمس شمعة بشمع ذاب معدتش تطلع بالنهار
ويعلموك معنى الحياة والحب في كزينو القمار
شفت الحياة في عجل الروليت لما يدور عقلك يشد
وضحكت ليه لما اتهزمت وتسمي خبتك إنتصار!
تحلم بإيه وتعمل حزين ولعبت ليه دور الرزين
كومبرس منسي من سنين وملكش حق الإختيار
مسرح عرائس يا بنات وكله يرقص من سكات
قالوا الفضيلة والشرف نوع من الخيابه والترف
ومش مهم إللي انصرف والفرحة نحسبها بدولار $
تحلم بإيه وتعمل حزين ولعبت ليه دور الرزين
كومبرس منسي من سنين وملكش حق الإختيار
In Wael Jassar's song "El Rolet," the lyrics describe a person who appears to be miserable and sad despite having dreams and aspirations. The song asks why this person is playing the role of a reserved and serious individual when they could be enjoying life. The imagery of the sun being a candle that melts away signifies that time is precious and one should make the most of every moment.
The lyrics go on to describe how one can learn about life and love through gambling, as if the act of playing roulette can teach us something about the unpredictability of life. The idea of laughing at oneself when they lose and calling it a victory rather than a defeat is a metaphor for not taking life too seriously and finding joy in the small things.
The song touches upon themes of conformity and societal pressures, with the idea of being a "forgotten compass" and not having the freedom to choose. The line "puppets on a stage who just dance and forget their past" is a commentary on the entertainment industry and how it can be a distraction from the realities of life. The mention of "dollars" as a way to measure happiness reflects the materialistic nature of society, with people valuing wealth and status over true happiness.
Overall, "El Rolet" is a song that encourages listeners to seize the day and find joy in life's simple pleasures rather than conforming to societal expectations and valuing material possessions over true happiness.

A puppet show, my girls, where everyone dances to the strings.
نسو الزبون كل اللي فات ينفخ مررتو في السجار
They forget the customers and all that has gone before and blow their smoke in their faces.
قالوا الفضيلة والشرف نوع من الخيابه والترف
They say honor and virtue are a kind of deceit and luxury.
ومش مهم إللي انصرف والفرحة نحسبها بدولار $
And what is important is not what is gone and happiness is counted in dollars.

you dream of what? you make yourself sad, why did you play the role of the smart person?1
the sun is a candle in the candleholder, it doesnt come out anymore during the day
and they teach you the meaning of love..of tenderness in a casino (one where you can gamble)
i saw life throught the wheel of the roulette, when it spins/goes around, your mind will become distracted
you laughed when you lost, yet you call your loss a win
you dream of what? you make yourself sad, why did you play the role of the smart person?
you are a combars that has been forgotten for years, you dont have the right to choose anymore
girls, it is a stage full of dolls (a theature), where everyone dances in silence
they've made the client forget everything that has happened in the past, they made him blow his saddness and hardness away through a cigar
they've said that honour and morality are silly, they are of failure
its not important how much has been spent, for happiness is calculated through dollars
