Oh, you know I have seen
a sky without sun
a man with no nation
Saints captive in chains
A song with no name
for lack of imagination
Yala hey ya hey yala hey
And I have seen
darker than ebony
Yala hey ya hey yala hey
And now it seems that I
with out your eyes could never be
My one desire
All I aspire is in your eyes
forever to live
Traveled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beriut
Looking for someone
comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
and I could not find eyes like yours
Rab el sama'y fika elraja'y
feh 'ieniha arra elhayaty
'atey elyak min hatha elkawn
arjok raby labi neda'y
Came from Bahrein
Got to Beriut
Looking for someone
comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
and I could not find eyes like yours
Oh, you know I have seen
A woman of means in rags
and begging for pleasure
Cross the river of salt
Just after I rode a ship that
sunk in the desert
Yala hey ya he yala hey
And I have seen
darker than ebony
Yala hey ya hey yala hey
And now it seems that I without your eyes
Could never be
My one desire all I aspire
is in your eyes forever to live
Traveled all over
the seven oceans
there is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrein
got to Beirut
Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors and I could
not find eyes like yours
Rab el sama'y fika elraja'y
feh 'ieniha arra elhayaty
'atey elyak min hatha elkawn
arjok raby labi neda'y
Came from Bahrein
got to Beirut
Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors and I could
not find eyes like yours
Rab el sama'y fika raja'y
feh 'ieniha arah hayaty
'atey elyak min hatha aton
arjok raby labi neda'y
men Bahrien ila Beirut
Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors

My one desire all I aspire

Travelled all over
the seven oceans
there is nothing that I wouldn't give

Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors and I could
