Yemma Songtext

von Souad Massi

Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik
Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you
El reih maynqusnich
The wind cannot measure me
Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik
Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you
Drahem maykhussunich
Money does not concern me
Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik
Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you
Dmou3 mate3refnich
Tears do not know me
Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik
Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you

Hena Kayen ghir el bard
There is nothing but cold here
Nchouf fi 7atta wa7ed
Let me see just one (who cares)
Hal keich rani qa3da?
Why am I sitting here?
W keich wallef ki 3al bard da?
And standing this cold?

Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik
Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you

Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you
Drahem maykhussunich
Money does not concern me

Barra maysebbunich
Outside they cant touch me
Yemma nekdeb 3alik, lazem nekdeb 3alik Oh mother I lied to you, I have to lie to you

Yemma twahhacht el chams
Oh mother I missed the sun
Hal keich rani chadda?
Why ----
El tayr elli ayech fel qafs
The bird that lives in a cage
Ma 3indo hatta fayda
Has no use

Low kan djat el ard tentaa
If it came to this earth
Rahi menna tetbarra
From it I will disown
El kheir ma sma yetdaffa
Good from your name grows warm
Kayen elli bato fe barra
Like those that stayed outside
