Tune of the Day: أنا هويت وانتهيت – سيد درويش

Whenever I go over to my grandparent’s house, my grandmother eventually asks me to play this song. With closed, reminiscing  eyes, she listens serenely to its endearingly tinny melodies, its heartfelt words, and Sayed Darwish’s hauntingly dazzling vocals and for the 12 minutes that this song plays, the most graceful, contented grin is drawn across her face. This beautiful, classic, honestly pure love song is one of my grandmother’s favorites (and quickly becoming one of mines as well) and, this right here, is for her.

أنا هويــــت وانتهيــــت وليه بقى لوم العــــــزول /يحب إنى أقـــول ياريت الحـــب ده عنى يــــزول/ ما دمت انا بهجره ارتضيت خللى بقى اللى يقول يقول/ أنا وحبيبى فى الغـرام مافيش كده ولا فى المنام/ أحبه حتى فى الخصام وبعـده عنى يا ناس حرام/ما دمت انا بهجره ارتضيت منى على الدنيــا الســـــلام
