Yaah’s Ghebet El Habayeb Arabic Lyrics English Meaning
Ashour says nights pass without sleep as memories consume him. El Shazly describes trying to erase a lover’s image from the eyes. The lyrics ask how to function when feeling lost.
Yah Adat Layali Fi Bu’dihi Anni Wa MansitushOh, the nights have passed while he’s been far from me, and I’ve never forgotten him.
Alatool Fi Bali Wa Guwwa Minni Wa A’mal EhHe’s always on my mind, a part of me, and what can I do?
Izzay Ha’awwid Eini Ya’ni MatshufushHow am I supposed to teach my eyes not to see him?
Da Wahshni Atammin AlehI miss him, I need to make sure he’s alright.
Yah Adat Layali Fi Bu’dihi Anni Wa MansitushOh, the nights have passed while he’s been far from me, and I’ve never forgotten him.
Alatool Fi Bali Wa Guwwa Minni Wa A’mal EhHe’s always on my mind, a part of me, and what can I do?
Izzay Ha’awwid Eini Ya’ni MatshufushHow am I supposed to teach my eyes not to see him?
Da Wahshni Atammin AlehI miss him, I need to make sure he’s alright.
Maba’tish Ashuf Bi’einayya Gheiro Wa Huwa GhayibI can’t see anyone but him, even though he’s absent.
Shayfeen Bita’mil Fina Eh Ghibitil HabayibYou see what the absence of our loved ones does to us?
Anwano Fein Tab Wasalulu Minni Is-SalamSo where’s his address? Send him my greetings.
Kan Akher Haga Hilwa Fiyya Ba’ia LiyyaHe was the last beautiful thing I had left.
Dallait Tari’i Ba’du Imta Yihiss BiyyaI’ve lost my way since he left, when will he ever feel for me?
Min Youm Ma Ihna Iftara’na W-Mish Ba’rif AnamSince the day we parted, I don’t know how to sleep.
Yah Adat Layali Fi Bu’dihi Anni Wa MansitushOh, the nights have passed while he’s been far from me, and I’ve never forgotten him.

Yah Sayib Alama Wa Sira Hilwa Ala Il-LisanHe left a mark, and a sweet story on everyone’s lips.
Law Sirto Tigi Arudd Bil-Kheir Kan HaninWhen his name comes up, I only say good things; he was so kind.
Kan Huwa Ruhi Wa Hudnu Kan Kull Il-AmanHe was my very soul, and his embrace was my only sanctuary.
Ana Itkasart W-Mish BibayyinI’m broken, but I don’t let it show.
