Habibty Lyrics Translation – Hassan Shakosh

The vocalist stands below a window asking for affection without a scene. Adam Burton writes ‘Your heels are decorated with henna patterns’. The songwriter notes a desire for an engagement ring to seal the bond.

Habibty eftahi shabbakek ana geetMy love, open your window; I’ve arrived.
Ana wa’ef taht el beit mesh haamel zeita w seitI’m standing below your house, and I won’t cause a scene or make a fuss.
WahashtiniI’ve missed you.
Betleffi w tedouri aleya lehWhy are you playing these games with me?
Mesh ayza tehanni lehWhy don’t you want to show me some affection?
Tab bossi ya bent el eih mesh hahellikNow look here, you clever girl, I’m not letting you go.
Bala’iki oddamak behwayaI always find myself right in front of you by my own choice.
Law mesh gaya maaya haamel alf genaya ha’leb zombieIf you don’t come with me, I’ll commit a thousand crimes and turn into a ‘maniac’.
Ana gaylek w ba’ollak wahshani enti el noss ettaniI’m coming to tell you that I’ve missed you; you’re my other half.
W ba’eti bennesba leya om ayaliTo me, you’ve become the mother of my future children.
Esmellah mahrousa men el ein mashaallahIn God’s name, you’re protected from the ‘evil eye’; it’s as God willed.
Ya ghazal beyetoll etallaYou’re like a gazelle peeking out for a look.
Ka’bek marsoum bel henna ya amiraYour heels are decorated with ‘henna’ patterns, my princess.
Shaghlani w men el aalam wakhdaniYou’ve occupied my mind and taken me away from the world.
Hodnek la’eto makaniI’ve found my place in your embrace.
Law ghibti anni ba’ani ya rouh albiIf you leave me, I’ll suffer, soul of my heart.
Bel aafya ana gowa fi manta’tekWhether by force or love, I’m here in your neighborhood.
Wa’ef taht beitek w basama’ hattatek enti tkhassiniI’m standing under your house listening to your footsteps, for you belong to me.
Men el akher elli ye’rablaha aw yeegy youm aandahaIn short, anyone who gets close to her or comes near her one day,
Hakhtafu fi wa’taha ana dammi hamiI’ll make them disappear instantly; I’ve got a hot temper.
Rouhi afdiki berouhi bas aw’i trouhiMy soul, I’d sacrifice my life for you, just don’t ever leave.
Ana kol tomouhi deblet khoutoubaMy only ambition is an engagement ring.
Albi enti nabd albi w hayati entiMy heart, you’re my heartbeat and my life.
Ya batal manta’eti ya gamilaYou’re the star of my neighborhood, beautiful one.
Katkouta ya karima ala baskouta geranof w mesh ma’routaYou’re a ‘cute little bird’ on a biscuit, high-class and not stingy.
Amara gilly w ‘at’outa ya asaliyaYou’re a moon, sweet like jelly and a kitten, my honey.
Mamlaktiti w el ba’i kollo gawari enti elli gowa khayaliYou’re my kingdom while the rest are just ‘maids’; you’re the one in my imagination.
Akhadti kol hanani ya nen el einYou’ve taken all my tenderness, ‘light of my eyes’.
Ma yasahhish fel rayha w fel gayaIt isn’t right that every time you come and go,
Einak teegy aleya mesh hagi bel malaghya w el marazeyayour eyes meet mine, but I won’t respond to sweet talk or persistence.
Beta’akes tab bardak mesh hagi mo’gab kalem dadyYou’re flirting, but still, I won’t come as a fan; go talk to my ‘father’.
Law wafe’ ya hayati hadeek enayyaIf he agrees, my life, I’ll give you my very eyes.
Ana gaylek w ba’ollak wahshani enti el noss ettaniI’m coming to tell you that I’ve missed you; you’re my other half.
W ba’eti bennesba leya om ayaliTo me, you’ve become the mother of my future children.
