Lena Chamamyan - Before Dinner lyrics

rate me

Not before dinner sir

After dinner yes, yes

With who can I send my greetings to you

With my soul (literally "apple of the eye") or my heart?

Oh lighting send them my regards whenever you strike

When you were far away I used to hear your news

Now that you're close I can't stop looking at you

I won't die, no I won't die even if they bring the burial shroud I won't

I'll go down to the Straight Street market and have a coffin made

One nail made of silver and gold and the other nail of ruby

The people will be amazed when they see us both in the coffin

You have a apricot tree in your house and we have a peach tree in ours

The apricot tree has leaned towards the peach tree (it makes a little more sense in Arabic, but to lean towards someone means to like them so it's a play on words)

Quit coming and going

Oh lord give us some rain, the Earth is longing (also a metaphor)<br />
