Warda - Ya Leyl Tawel (Oh! Night, Please Lengthen..) lyrics

rate me

Do not ask my lover, oh night, why he lies

awake, for how could your moon benefit him?

If, in a day, the moon slipped through his hands

my night too would be long and l, also would lie

awake thought if the stars slept as well then my

tears would flow.

Whatever in life I forget, my love is always

remembered: his absence reminds me of travel

but when the sun is shining I am reminded of

sleeplessness. And I said that this insomnia is

my destiny where a moon appears and I lie

awake the night. But , oh night, be less stone

hearted, and more tender, for I must lie awake

in your company with you, that father of all

nights, and along with my unhappy heart who

lives days which seem like years. The morning

seems afar and the night remains stubborn. But,

oh night, be less stone hearted, and more tender

whilst being longer as I must lie

awake throughout you.<br />
