Lyrics:
A sweet word and two sweet words, my country
كلمة حلوة وكلمتين حلوة يا بلدي

Sweet song and sweet song, my country
غنوة حلوة وغنوتين حلوة يا بلدي

My hope has always been, my country, that I will return to you
أملي دايما كان يا بلدي إني أرجع لك

Oh my country, I always prefer to be by your side
يا بلدي وأفضل دايما جنبك على طول
And the memories of everything that passed, I remember, my country
وذكريات كل اللي فات فاكرة يا بلدي

My heart is full of wonderful stories, my country
قلبي مليان بحكايات فاكرة يا بلدي

The first love in my country that I cannot forget
أول حب كان في بلدي مش ممكن أنساه

Oh my country, where are the old days before goodbye?
يا بلدي فين أيام زمان قبل الوداع
We used to say that this separation was impossible
كنا بنقول إن الفراق ده مستحيل

And every tear on the cheek was flowing
وكل دمعة على الخدين كانت بتسيل

Full of hope that we will still exist
مليانة بأمل إن إحنا نبقى موجودين

In the sea of ​​love on both sides
في بحر الحب على الشطين
A sweet word and two sweet words, my country
كلمة حلوة وكلمتين حلوة يا بلدي

Sweet song and sweet song, my country
غنوة حلوة وغنوتين حلوة يا بلدي

Where is my beloved, my country? He was far from me
فين حبيب القلب يا بلدي كان بعيد عني

Oh my country, and every time I sing, I think about it
يا بلدي وكل ما بغني بفكر فيه
Say, my love, where will you leave me and go?
قول يا حبيبي إنت سايبني ورايح فين

This is the most beautiful melody, the two of us will sing it
أجمل لحن ده هنغنيه إحنا الاِثنين

Oh sweetheart, the word “my country” is in a two-line song
يا محلى كلمة بلدي في غنوة من سطرين

Oh night, oh eye, oh eye, oh night
يا ليل يا عين، يا عين يا ليل

Oh Lily, oh Lily, Lily
يا ليلي، يا ليلي، ليلي
A sweet word and two sweet words, my country
كلمة حلوة وكلمتين حلوة يا بلدي

A sweet song and two moon songs, my country
غنوة حلوة وغنوتين قمر يا بلدي

My hope has always been, my country, that I will return to you
أملي دايما كان يا بلدي إني أرجع لك

Oh my country, I always prefer to be by your side
يا بلدي وأفضل دايما جنبك على طول

Moon, my country
قمر يا بلدي
Sweet, my country
حلوة يا بلدي
