Fairuz - Hawa Bairut (The love of Beirut) lyrics

rate me

They put up road-blocks

they dimmed all the signs

they planted cannons

they mined the squares

where are you love

after you we became

the love that screams

we became the distances.

For the happy days we longed

the days of staying up on the road

the long walks

the rendezvous at the old restaurant.

O love of Beirut

O love of days

They will come back Beirut

the days will come back.

It is the second summer

the moon is broken

is it true you may forget me

my defeated love

I went back to my house

my house I didn't find

only smoke and twisted beams

no rose and no fence.<br />

<br />
