الكلمات:
راحوا
وبضلهم يرجعوا
زي موج البحر
بضلهم يرجعوا
راحوا
وبضلهم يطلعوا
زي أوّل قمر
بضلهم يطلعوا
لينادوا أسامينا
ليضلوا حوالينا
ليعيشوا بليالينا
راحوا وبضلهم يرجعوا
مع السّلامة يا حبيبي
سلّملي عَ الّي راحوا
مع السّلامة يا حبيبي
طمّنّي عَ الّي راحوا
يا ريتك صاحي يا عيوني
ليه رايح من دوني
يا ريت فراقك ما يكون بعمري
يا ربّي صبرك يا ربّي!
English translation of lyrics:
They’re gone,
Yet they keep coming back—
Like ocean waves,
They keep coming back.
They’re gone,
Yet they keep rising—
Like a newborn moon,
They keep rising:
To call our names,
To linger around us,
To haunt our nights…
They left, but they always come back.
Farewell, my love,
Say hello to those who were taken from us
Farewell, my love,
Tell me they’re at peace
If only you were still awake, my darling
Why did you leave without me?
I wish you never parted in my lifetime
Oh God, grant me strength—oh God!
They’re gone… they’re gone…
But they will always come back
