The evening sun is about to go down and my eyes filled with tears because of separation It set her lines upon the horizon and when it went down, the one in love fell for his longing Even birds warbled and trilled mourning upon leaves Oh, sun of the evening, wait, don’t go down, And for God’s sake take it easy on me You set me on fire and you make the heart dies of its yearning Have mercy on me, I’m falling deeper for the beautiful one In the golden valley where the face of the beautiful (shines) like a chandelier And the polite servant serves drinks in concave glasses Set the divans up and give us more, let us have fun this evening Each one of us is holding his glass in his hand and enjoying the moment And my heart wants the beautiful one and opens wide for him I am all at your service, master, what about you? I am a slave that you bought with cheapest price Credits Song: Arabic classical music Artist: Nabyla Maan (نبيلة معن) Music video: Courtesy of Nabyla MAAN Text & translation: Sandy M on lyricstranslate.com Copyright: Fair use principle, for educational purposes. | |
