Lolaki Lyrics English Translation by Aziz Maraka | Joseph Attieh

The poet Aziz Maraka tells the story of finding love through pain. A key line, ‘If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have loved,’ shows how love transforms even the darkest moments. The lyrics describe sleepless nights and broken pieces mended by someone who truly cares.

Ah ya aayniOh, my darling
Kan omri ma ghannaytI’d never have sung a single note.
El alb etalam maarafsh ezay hasal?The heart suffered, I’m not sure how it happened,
Le’i had ehtam w lemlam elli etkassarit found someone who cared and gathered the broken pieces.
Ghayyar li hali w ah sahert el layaliYou’ve changed my world and oh, I’ve spent nights awake,
De enti maaki habbayt hatta el alamwith you, I’ve even fallen in love with the pain.
Yalli loulaki ma kunt habbaytYou, without whom I’d never have known love
W loula koll ha el asa kan omri ma ghannaytand if not for all this sorrow, I’d never have sung.
Yalli loulaki ma sahert el layaliYou, without whom I wouldn’t have spent nights awake,
Ya omri ghali loulaki ma habbaytmy precious life, if not for you, I wouldn’t have loved.
LoulakiIf it weren’t for you
Loulaki ma habbaytif it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have loved.
LoulakiIf it weren’t for you

LoulakiIf it weren’t for you
Loulaki ma habbaytif it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have loved.
Yalli loulaki ma kan adda el asaYou, without whom the misery wouldn’t have passed
W ma dam maaki koll el baqi etnessaand as long as I’m with you, everything else is forgotten
W loula enni la’aytak kunt la’aytni ezay?if I hadn’t found you, how would I have ever found myself?
W ezay asaab ayami maaki bardo kwayessaand how my toughest days are still beautiful with you.
