rate meIntro
Today, I wished to say,
Ana enaharda kan nefsy akool,
To say a lot of things about a man
Akool fe kalaam keteer ragel
Who carried on his shoulders
Hamel ala ketafoo.
Arabic Music his whole life.
Eb el mosika el arabia tool omro.
In reality, I can't find the words
Fel wakei mesh la-ee kalaam.
That I can describe him with.
Yaany aadar awsefoo bee.
My teacher, the master
Ostazee, el ostaz
Mohamad Abdel Wahab.
Mohamad Abdel Wahab.
I will sing to his music the song
Haghanee el lahn betaoo,
"She Passed By Us"
Fatet Ganbena.
Whose words were written by
Elly kateb kalematehoo
The poet the supreme, the master,
El sha-eir el rakeek, el ostaz,
Hussein El Sayed.
Hussein El Sayed.
