ضمّة – Damma Meaning & Lyrics (Aley Eldin Omar | Yasmina El Abd)
محمد بحيري writes about pain that no one else has felt. He mentions barely needing a hug to find comfort from darkness.
Ya Waja’akOh, your pain.
Ya Elli Mahaddesh Hassah Waja’akOh, you whose pain no one else has felt.
Yebqa Kol El Darb Waja’akThe entire path remains your pain,
W Mesh Aaref Gaylak MeninAnd I don’t know where it’s coming from.
Ya Qalbak W Kol Dah Metshal Fe QalbakOh, your heart, and everything that’s stored inside it,
W Enta Mashy Lessa Be QalbakAnd you’re still walking with your heart,
Men Gheir Daman Ala El SeninWithout any guarantee for the years ahead.
Damma Ya Amma (Damma)A hug, oh mother (A hug),
Di Tal’et Damma Ya Amma (Damma)It turned out to be a hug, oh mother (A hug),
Atari El Donia Dhalma Ya Amma (Dhalma)It turns out the world is dark, oh mother (Dark),
W Ana Yadob Mehtag Le Damma Damma Damma (Damma)And I barely need a hug, a hug, a hug (A hug).
Damma Ya Amma (Ya Amma)A hug, oh mother (Oh mother),
Di Tal’et Damma Ya Amma (Damma)It turned out to be a hug, oh mother (A hug),
Atari El Donia Dhalma Ya Amma (Dhalma)It turns out the world is dark, oh mother (Dark),
W Ana Yadob Mehtag Le Damma Damma DammaAnd I barely need a hug, a hug, a hug.
Heya Sanada Hawwenet Kol Elli AddaIt’s the support that eased everything that’s passed,
W Gat Tesheddak Men El Bo’ad DaAnd it came to pull you from this distance,
Targa’ Ka’anak Sagh SaleemSo you return as if you’re whole and sound.
Baqeit AhdaI’ve become calmer,
W El Donia Khalas Sheb’et MonaahdaAnd the world’s finally had enough of conflict,
W El Sobh Aho Gay El NahardaAnd look, the morning’s coming today,
Yemsah Khalas Kol El QadeemTo finally wipe away all the old things.
Faddy MakanakMake some space for yourself.
Damma Ya AmmaA hug, oh mother,
Mabqetsh El Donia Damma Ya AmmaThe world isn’t dark anymore, oh mother,
W Seheet Khalas Ala Noorha Ya AmmaAnd I’ve finally woken up to its light, oh mother,
W El Donia Tal’et Shayla Damma Damma DammaAnd the world turned out to be holding a hug, a hug, a hug.
Damma Ya AmmaA hug, oh mother,
Mabqetsh El Donia Damma Ya AmmaThe world isn’t dark anymore, oh mother,
