In over 60 years of her musical career, Sabah recorded about 3500
songs. However, only about 1000 are known today, and less than 50 to 80 are very well known.
Unfortunately, many of her songs are only available today on a very narrow scale to new generations under 30 years old. Few songs are broadcasted from comercial radio and tv stations and if broadcasted, stress is often made on the most popular ones as "Zay el asal" , "Ya dala3", "sa3at sa3at" , "El mjawaj", etc.
She got married for over 10 times lol, and her last husband was 22 year old !!! and she is over 60 !!! I like this woman
She was in 6 movies, a legend for arab's.
She sung also in english, italian, french.
Ave Sabah!!!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr for over 2 hours i'm searching for the lyrics but no luck.
The only thing I know from my poor arabian is that "Zai el Assal" means "eyes of honey"

Dear Maria,
wow she really is amazing!!
I know now only Zay el Assal and some of the other songs you mentioned. I saw this album by Sabah on Amazon.com but it said it was not available (bummer).
Can you suggest some other songs (less known) by Sabah that are also worth listening?
Thanks for searching for lyrics for me, at least now I know what the title kind of means (your Arabic is not as poor as mine lol, I still need to start taking classes )
If you do find lyrics someday, please think of me

I was browsing another music forum some time ago and found these lyrics to Zay el Assal. I'm putting them up here now, still have to get them translated though.
Anyoneray:?
Zay el 3asal
Abelt kteer... Farashouli 3ashani el ard 7arir
W shoft kteer... w ma shoft zay habibi ameer
Manish rayda... Manish rayda ella houwwa manish rayda
Mafish fayda... Mafih fayda ella houwwa mafish fayda
Fil bo3d 3ash2ah... fil orb 3ash2ah
Zay el assal 3ala albi hawah.
Men soghrena we7na binebni 3eshena ma3 ba3dena
Men hobbena yet3allem el teir mennena el hawa zayyena
W kberna wel hawa keber, wala 7ad fil dunia 2eder
yefarra2na walaw leila... di ossetna ossa taweela
Fil bo3d 3ash2ah... fil orb 3ash2ah
Zay el assal 3ala albi hawah.

Like honey
Here is my take on translating the meaning of Sabah song I took out all the repeats it is not word for word. I hope this will give the feeling of this song.
Dear Maria, the clip you post is great she's really connecting with the music perfectly ... almost as good as Tito
Zai el Asal
Like honey
I have met so many they lay silk in front of me.
I have seen so many but have never seen someone like my love the Prince
I don't want anybody except him
I desire him when he's far from me ... I desire him when he's near me
like honey in my heart
since we were young we built our birdhouse together .. from our love the bird learn to love like us
we grow and our love grow .. no one will be able to separate us
if they bring me the moon and the stars .. I'll tell them no way I can't leave my precious love
I desire him when he's near me I desire him when he's far from me
like honey in my heart desire

Zay el assal
Lyrics and English Translation:
Zay el 3asal: Just Like Honey
Abelt kteer... Farashouli 3ashani el ard 7arir
I've met many... For me they spread silk on the floor
W shoft kteer... w ma shoft zay habibi ameer
And I've seen many... But haven't seen a prince like my baby
Manish rayda... Manish rayda ella houwwa manish rayda
I don't want... I don't want any other but him, I don't want
Mafish fayda... Mafih fayda ella houwwa mafish fayda
It's pointless... It's pointless if it were any other but him, it's pointless
Fil bo3d 3ash2ah... fil orb 3ash2ah
From a distance I love him... nearby I love him
Zay el assal 3ala albi hawah.
His love comes over my heart just like honey
Men soghrena we7na binebni 3eshena ma3 ba3dena
Since we were young we were building our life together
Men hobbena yet3allem el teir mennena el hawa zayyena
From our love the birds learned from us, a love like ours
W kberna wel hawa keber, wala 7ad fil dunia 2eder
As we grew our love grew, no one on Earth could..
yefarra2na walaw leila... di ossetna ossa taweela
separate us not even for a night.. that is our story, a long story
Fil bo3d 3ash2ah... fil orb 3ash2ah
From a distance I love him... nearby I love him
Zay el assal 3ala albi hawah.
His love comes over my heart just like honey
Law gabou el amar el 3ali
If they brought me the high moon
Wel nogoum 7atooha 3alashani
And placed the stars for me
Ra7 aghani w 2a2oul wana mali ana mali
I will sing and say "what do I care, what do I care"
Ma2darsh aseeb 7abibi el ghali
I can't leave my precious love
Dal amar howa 7abibi
The moon is my darling
Wel nogoum b3youn 7abibi
And the stars are in my darling's eyes
Here you can find some different versions for this song.

Hope you like it!
