Does anyone know Ragheb Alama's song "Albi ashikha"? I think it's among his old songs, but very beautiful.I love it, ita atmosphere brings out all kinds of emotions in me, but I have absolutely no clue what is it about.Can anyone help?
Dear Leila,
it is a beautiful song, I asked for the translation some time back in another forum, here it is. Enjoy!

Ragheb Alama
قلبي عشقها
alby aesheqha//my heart loved her said:
قلبي عشقها والعيون هويتها واهلها ما يرضون
alby aesheqha wel 3yon hweta w ahla ma yerdon//my heart and eyes adored her n her folks don't agree
وانا كل ما اشتق اليها اروح واسال عليها عليها
wana kol mashta2 eliha aro7 was2al 3leeha //n every time I miss her I go n ask about her
تجاوبني عينيها تجاوبني عينيها
tegawibni 3neeha //her eyes reply
ارحل يا حبيبي حبيبي اهله ما يرضون
er7al ya 7abiby 7abiby ahli ma yrdon//go darling my folks don't agree
يا اهل الهوى ايه العمل يالي هوتها عمري عطيتها وهي الامل
yaal el hwa eh el 3amal yalli hwita 3omri 3atita w heya el amal//o love folk what can i do the one i love i gave her my life and she is the hope
يا ويل قلبي يا ويل قلبي لو يرحلون
ya weel albi law yer7aloon//o woe unto my heart if they leaved
هي افراحي واهاتي هي اغلى ما فحياتي هي عمري ودكرياتي هي حبي للجنووووووون
heya afra7i w ahati heya aghla mn hayati heya omri w zikryatu heya hobi llgenon//she is my joys n groans , she is the most precious thing in my life, she is my life n my memories, she is my love for insanity
