Mother [Arabic] [Transliteration]

================ English =================

Blessed is your face

Blessed is your name

My beloved

Blessed is your smile

Which makes my soul want to fly

My beloved

All the nights and, all the times that

you cared for me

But I never realized it

And now it’s too late

Forgive me

Now I’m alone filled with so much shame

For all the years I caused you pain

If only I could sleep in your arms again

Mother, I’m lost without you

You were the sun, that brightened my day

Now who’s going to wipe, my tears away

If only I knew what I know today

Mother I’m lost without you
