Lyrics I Wish I'd Written: Habbaytak Bessayf by Fairuz

Someone that I love very much shared this with me. The words (very loosely translated) are beautiful and invoke the spirit of love throughout the seasons. I'm glad to share it with all of you lovers out there. Happy Valentine's Day! This is...

Habbaytak Bessayf

بأيام البرد بأيام الشتي

والرصيف بحيرة والشارع غريب

تجي هاكل البنت من بيتا العتيق

ويقلا نطريني وتنطر ع طريق

ويروح وينساها وتبدبل بالشتي

حبيتك بالصيف حبيتك بالشتي

نطرتك بالصيف نطرتك بالشتي

وعيونك الصيف وعيوني الشتي

وملقانا يا حبيبي خلف الصيف وخلف الشتي

مرقت الغريبة عطيتني رسالة

كتبها حبيبي بدمع الحزين

فتحت الرسالة

حروفا ضايعين

ومرقت ايام وغربتنا سنين

وحروف الرسالة محيها الشتي

I loved you in the summer

On cold days and winter days

The pier is a lake and the street is flooded

Huck girl comes from her old house

And he tells her to go and see me on the road

And go and forget it and change the thing

I loved you in the summer. I loved you

I look at you in the summer

And your eyes are summer and my eyes are winter

Meet us darling

Behind the summer and behind the winter

She gave me a message

Written by my beloved in tears sad

The letter opened its letters, lost

Days passed and years went by

And the letters of the letter are erased by the different
