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

Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
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
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn’t give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours

Rabboussama’i fiki arraja’i
Fi ainaiha ara khayali
A’ti ilaiha min haza alkaouni
Arjou ellaiki labbi nidai

Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
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

Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
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
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn’t give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours

Rabboussama’i fiki arraja’i
Fi ainaiha ara khayali
A’ti ilaiha min haza alkaouni
Arjou ellaiki labbi nidai

Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours

Rabboussama’i fikarraja’i
Fi ainaiki ara el hayati
A’ti ilaika min haza alkaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Men Bahrein ila Beirut

Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
and I could not find eyes like yours

My one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn’t give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
