Nawal el-Zoghbi - You Have No Oath on Meنوال الزغبي - ما لك عليا يمينMalak Alaya Yamine

Well the title of this song is as usual the hardest line to translate "Ma Lak 3alaya Yamiin" means like 'you don't have an oath on me.' The el-Badawi colloquial dictionary gives this definition: "although you have no right to demand an oath from me that the case is so, nevertheless I swear it is." I really after some thinking could not come up with a nice english equivalent. ِِAnyway, I am certain the writer forced a rhyme by using this phrase with "Haziin" and "Aniin."

Nawal el-Zoghbi - You Have No Oath on Me Although you can't make me swear it I will My heart in your absence is sad And I am hiding and concealing My torment and the moans

In your absence my branch has become dry
And the tears have melted my eyelids
My patience is over I'm fed up
When (where) will I see you, when?

I wish I could believe my suspicions
In your return oh my madness
Me my heart and my eyes are melting from our desire

نوال الزغبي - ما لك عليا يمين

مـــــــــــا لــــك عليــــا يـــــــمــــــيــــن
قلــــــبي فـــي بـــعــــــدك حـــــــزيـــن
و أنا أداري و خـبي لوعـــتي و الأنيـــن

فـــي غـــيـبــــتك جــــف غــــصــــنـــي
و دوب الــــدمـــــــــــع جــفـــــــنـــــــي
خلاص صبري تعبني...وين أشوفك وين

نـــــفســـي أصــــدق ظـــــنــــــونــــــي
فــــي رجــعــــتــك يــــا جـــــنـــونـــي
أنا و قلبي و عيوني...من شوقنا دايبين
