ليه يا قلبى ليه [Leih Ya Alby Leih] [English translation]

Why my heart, why.. you making me promise

To conceal the story.. & hide it from him.

To not describe my torment to him.. & the confusion I'm having,

And his love that took me.. from my relatives & my friends

And how can I hide

And how can he be near

And I still miss him !

Why my heart, why.. you making me promise.. Why my heart, why!

ـــــــــــــــــــــــــ

No, I can't hide.. I love him, o my heart.

And I swear he is the first.. & the last of my loved

And now I'll tell him

All of your words (my heart)

See what you're going to do

Why my heart, why.. you making me promise.. Why my heart, why!

ـــــــــــــــــــــــــ

I will tell him all I've hidden

I will tell him how much I love him

I will tell him, tell & tell

And I hope he would listen, I hope

O my heart, I love him .. And his love is making me suffer .. But what could I do!

Why my heart, why.. you making me promise.. Why my heart, why!
