Oh Mother/أيا أمي
The ornament of my life
The light of my eye
The teacher of my life
You are very generous
And you always give
You are generous
Oh, how much I love you?!
Oh, how much I want to live for you
To make up for all you have done for me
Oh mother, Oh mother
How I love being with you
How I love sitting by your side
Kneel in your heart
And bury my soul in yours
So my heart can be calm and unconcerned
And to be with you all the time
And evict everything hideous
And
To know what’s right?
Nothing, but you, is right
The queen of tenderness and care
You are a garden that flourishes with daisies
Oh mother,
Oh mother
Oh human!
أيا أمّي
أيا زينةَ حياتي
أيا نورَ مقلتي
أيا رجوتي ومعلّمتي..
بعطائِكِ..
أنت كريمةْ
بأخلاقكِ أنتِ كبيرة
كم أحبُّكِ؟!
وكم أريدُ أنْ أحيا لِأجلِكِ
لكي أُعوِّضَ بعضَ فيضكِ
أيا أمي، أيا أمي
كَم أُحبُّ الجُلوسَ بقربكِ
كم أحبُّ أن أجثوَ في قلبكِ
أنْ أدفن روحي في روحكِ
كي يهنأ قلبي وأستريحْ
كي أواجه بكِ ألفِ ريحْ
كي أطردَ منّي كلَّ قبيحْ
و كي…
أعرفَ دومًا ما الصّحيحْ؟
لا شيء إلّاكِ صحيحْ
يا ملكةَ الحنانْ
يا حديقةً تفورُ أقحوانْ
أيا أمي، أيا أمي،
أيّتها الإنسانْ
