Reyah El Hayah Lyrics Translation – Hamza Namira
The songwriter talks about the winds of life always blowing against his wishes. He sings, ‘Where can my heart find its cure? When the one who hurt it was the closest soul.’ The lyrics explore the struggle of letting go of old wounds and focusing on what lies ahead.
Tehebi ya reyah el hayahYou love to blow, O winds of life,
Deeman bema la achtehihalways bringing what I don’t desire.
W elli esseninn mo’addamihThe years have offered me,
Gher elli ‘olt nefsi fihsomething different than what I’d hoped for.
Yela’i albi fen dawahWhere can my heart find its cure?
W elli azah a’rab ma lihWhen the one who hurt it was the closest soul.
Da garh beyeallemThis is a wound that leaves a lasting mark.
W saab teskon el aalamIt’s hard for the pain to fade,
W akhrog mel elli fat salimand to walk away from the past unharmed.
W saab lamma aroh anamIt’s hard when I go to sleep,
Ma afdalsh arage’a el ‘adimnot to keep replaying the old memories.
Tala’ mokallef el allamKnowledge has come at a high price,
W khadt dars fessamimand I’ve learned a lesson deep in my core.
W lessa beteallemI’m still learning.
Rakkez ya albi fel elli gayFocus, my heart, on what’s coming next,
W alf chokr lelli baaand a thousand thanks to those who walked away.
Ma sansh hatta bo’ chayThey didn’t even respect a ‘sip of tea’ shared between us.
Salam ya taltemeyyet wadaaGoodbye, with three hundred more farewells.
W elli la’ana ma yesaaoshThose who aren’t big enough for us,
F khanet el wadaa tesaawill fit perfectly in the ‘farewell’ column.
Mashaerna mesh le’baOur feelings aren’t a game.
Ma tetchaghalsh bel elli fatDon’t let the past distract you,
Khellik ya albi fel mofidjust stay focused on what’s useful, my heart.
Kabbar le ay zekrayatRise above all those memories,
Rakkez w bass fel gedidand look only toward the new things.
Lazem ne’assem el khanatWe must categorize everyone,
Bemin ‘arib w min ba’iddeciding who’s close and who’s distant.
El hesba mesh sa’baThe math isn’t difficult.
Fraht messaaat saaatI was happy for a few moments at a time,
W do’t mel hagat hagatand I’ve tasted a bit of everything.
W esht messenin seninI’ve lived through years and years,
W nabni mel elli fat fatatand all I’ve gained from the past are crumbs.
W mel habib gawab hazinI received a sad letter from a loved one,
W as’ela bela egabatleaving me with questions that have no answers.
Hera wara heraIt’s just one confusion after another.
Hatta essaada yom w yomEven happiness comes and goes day by day,
Hatta el mahabba khod w hatand even love is about give and take.
W koll kom w komi komEveryone has their burdens, and mine are my own,
Zaman beyermi efehatwhile time keeps cracking its jokes.
W zay aadeti asoum asoumAnd as is my habit, I’ll keep fasting,
W asodd go’i zekrayatto satisfy my hunger with memories,
W afoddaha siraand then I’ll close the book on it for good.
Akheretha ya zaman ‘anidWhat’s the end of this, O stubborn time?
Kollo saba’ w ana el wahidEveryone has moved ahead, and I’m the only one left,
Elli mechet wara sarabwho kept chasing after a mirage.
W elli bada’t men gedidBut I’m the one starting over again.
El koll chaf elli warahEveryone saw what was behind them,
Hasabt ana ‘al masharibbut I was the one left paying the bill,
Lewahdi kal aadaall by myself, as usual.
Mesh ba’i gheri fel makanNo one is left here but me,
Mesh ba’i hagat mel elli kanand nothing remains of what used to be.
Mesh ba’i gher wagaa zamanNothing’s left but the pain of the past,
W hams zekra fel wedanand the whisper of a memory in my ears.
Tawet haddi lamma ‘alI’ve waited for someone to tell me,
Osbor le koll chey adanto ‘be patient, for everything has its time’,
Ya hadd ma te’zenuntil the call finally comes.
