يا قلبو (ya albo)

Oh My Heart

يا قلبو (ya albo)

I laughed and he laughed back
ضحك وضحكتله
ḍaḥik wa ḍaḥiktlu
I spoiled him, I’ve spoiled him so much
دلع، أنا ياما إتدلعتله
dalʿ, anā yāmā itdallaʿtlu
What else is left for me to do?
فاضل إيه تاني وأنا أعمله؟
fāḍil eih tāni wa anā aʿmilhu
I’ve done all I can
ما أنا عملت اللي عليا
mā anā ʿamilt illi ʿalayya
I winked and he winked back
غمز وغمزتله
ghamaz wa ghamaztlu
I’ve said sweet things to him so many times
وكلام حلو أنا ياما قلتله
wakalām ḥilu anā yāmā qiltlu
He’s been stressing my heart out and messing with me
ده تاعب قلبي معاه وبهدله
dah tāʿib qalbi maʿāh wabhadlu
And still, he doesn’t feel me
وبرضه مش حاسس بيا
wabarḍu mish ḥāssis biyā

Oh my heart, feel that I love him
يا قلبه، حس إني بحبه
yā qalbuh, ḥiss innī baḥibbuh
More than his own friends
أكتر من حبايبه
aktar min ḥabāyibuh
And I won’t leave him alone
ومش هسيبه أنا في حاله
womish hasībah anā fī ḥālah
Oh my heart, feel that I love him
يا قلبه، حس إني بحبه
yā qalbuh, ḥiss innī baḥibbuh
Always by his side
طول الوقت جنبه
ṭūl alwaqt janbah
And he doesn’t even notice
وهو مش واخد باله
wahuwa mish wākhid bālh

I stayed up late for him
سهر وسهرتله
sahar wa sahartlu
I took the night from the start
خدت الليل أنا من أوله
khadt al-layl anā min awwaluh
Like the moon, I stay up to look at him
زي القمر أسهر أبصله
zay al-qamar ashar abṣiluh
And I hold him in my eyes
وأشيله أنا جوة عينيا
wa ashiluh anā jūwah ʿaynīya
I’ve caught his eye so many times
ياما لمحتله
yāmā lamāḥtlu
I’ve told him I feel at ease with him
ياما قلتله إني إرتحتله
yāmā qiltlu innī irtaḥtlu
With gifts, I’ve brought him so much
لو بالهدايا، أنا ياما جبتله
law bil-hadāyā, anā yāmā jibtlu
And still, he doesn’t feel me
وبرضه مش حاسس بيا
wabarḍu mish ḥāssis biyā

Oh my heart (oh my heart), feel that I love him (I love him)
يا قلبه (يا قلبه) ، حس إني بحبه (بحبه)
yā qalbuh (yā qalbuh), ḥiss innī baḥibbuh (baḥibbuh)
More than his own friends
أكتر من حبايبه
akhtar min ḥabāyibuh
And I won’t leave him alone
ومش هسيبه أنا في حاله
womish hasībah anā fī ḥālah
Oh my heart, feel that I love him
يا قلبه، حس إني بحبه
yā qalbuh, ḥiss innī baḥibbuh
Always by his side
طول الوقت جنبه
ṭūl alwaqt janbah

وهو مش واخد باله
wahuwa mish wākhid bālh

Oh my heart, oh my heart
يا قلبه، يا قلبه
yā qalbuh, yā qalbuh
Oh, oh, oh my heart
يا، يا، يا قلبه
