Lyrics - Transliteration
(Egyptian folk song)
A ya zain a ya zain
A ya zain el `agibeen
Ya ward ya ward
Imfatah bain il basateen
Bil hub bil hub
Ya malo saharni
Dawab dawabli rohi
Ba`oono el hilween
Ba`oono el hilween
English Translation – Oh Beautiful
Oh beautiful, oh beautiful,
oh beautiful among people.
Oh flower, flower blooming in the garden.
Oh flower, flower blooming in the garden.
In love, in love,
infatuated with beauty.
I’ve lost my soul, I’ve lost my soul in beautiful eyes.
I’ve lost my soul, I’ve lost my soul in beautiful eyes. (source)
Arabic – اه يا زين
آه يا زين، آه يا زين
آه يا زين العابدين
يا ورد، يا ورد مفتح بين البساتين
يا ورد، يا ورد مفتح بين البساتين
بالحب، بالحب جماله ساحرني
دوَّب، دوَّبلي روحي بعيونه الحلوين
دوَّب، دوَّبلي روحي بعيونه الحلوين
