Adena Aho 3erefna Meaning & Lyrics (Lella Fadda)
The poet writes about photos that no longer look like the couple they once captured. One line stands out: ‘My heart is still with you, it hasn’t come back to me yet.’ This captures the bittersweet ache of holding onto love even when it’s slipping away.
El bod metawel w ana hammi mokamelThe distance is growing long, and my worries only continue.
Nergaa nesallahWe try to go back and fix things,
Mafish wa’t nerammembut there’s no time left to restore what’s broken.
Gheflet eini w seket sotiMy eyes blinked for a moment and my voice went silent.
Fi lahza ethaddet w mshyet men gheriIn an instant, everything collapsed, and life moved on without me.
Fi bet fi albi sakennaWe lived in a house built within my heart.
Baraweez w el sowar mesh ehnaThe frames and the photos don’t look like us anymore.
Shouf konna fen delwa’ti fenaLook at where we were, and where we are now.
Ma kontesh haaraf akhret-haI didn’t know how it would end,
W adena aho aerefna w adena aho aerefnabut here we are, now we know. Yes, now we know.
Lessa fi makan ma etrahshThere’s still a place we haven’t visited yet.
Lessa eini ma shebaetshMy eyes haven’t had their fill of looking at you.
Albi maak lessa ma regaeshMy heart is still with you, it hasn’t come back to me yet.
W lessa benna maad mesh delwa’ti lamma nennamThere’s still an appointment between us, not now, but when we dream.
Yaretna konna zay el aflamI wish we could’ve been like the movies.
Fi bet fi albi sakennaWe lived in a house built within my heart.
Baraweez w el sowar mesh ehnaThe frames and the photos don’t look like us anymore.
Shouf konna fen delwa’ti fenaLook at where we were, and where we are now.
Ma kontesh haaraf akhret-haI didn’t know how it would end,
W adena aho aerefna w adena aho aerefnabut here we are, now we know. Yes, now we know.
