Lyrics - Transliteration
(Folk song from Lebanon)
Tafta hindi, tafta hindi,
Shash hariri ya banat
Iftahili ya sabiya
Endi bida lil sit-tat
English Translation – Indian Taffeta
Indian taffeta, Indian taffeta,
Silk and linen I sell here.
Open (the door) for me, pretty girls,
I have goods to sell you.
Arabic – تفتة هندي
بفتة هندي بفتة هندي شاش عريض يا بنات
افتحوا لي يا صبايا ولا اخش من الشباك
افتحي لي يا صبية عندي بضاعة للستات
