Claude 2

  1. تلعب وانا .. ما عاد لي بالطرب شف

    لعبك بروحي بدل الفرح بجراح

    You play while I...have no more joy in music

    Your playing with my soul replaced joy with wounds

  2. زل الطرب يا موجع الطار بالكف

    شابت قوافي الليل .. نور الضحى لاح

    The joy slipped away, O painful wind blowing in the palm trees

    The rhymes of the night have grown old...the light of dawn appeared

  3. كانك تدق القلب .. دقك على الدف

    عسى الضلوع توقي القلب لا طاح

    As if you were beating on the heart...your beating upon the tambourine

    I hope the ribs will protect the heart lest it falls

  4. شفتك .. ولا ادري من قضب بعدك الصف

    ناس ٍ كثير .. وكنهم عندي أشباح

    I saw you...and do not know who else stood in line after you

    Many people...yet they seemed to me like ghosts

  5. نورك دعاني عندك الشوف وقف

    كنه فنارٍٍٍ لاح في عين ملاح

    Your light invited me to stop and see you

    As if a beacon appeared in the eyes of a sailor

  6. من له ثمان اسنين من راح منكف

    خلّى السفين وعارض الموج سباح

    He who is eighteen years old and set sail

    Left the boat and challenged the waves swimming

  7. من فرحته ما حسب االحيل يتلف

    غلب عليه الموج والقاع منزاح

    In his joy he did not calculate the ropes wearing out

    The waves overpowered him and the bottom shifted
