Arabic Text (as image)

HAWA BAIRUT

AIR OF BEIRUT
SAKKAROU EL CHAWARE'E

They barricaded the streets, they turned off the neon lights,
they planted cannons, and cleared the places,
where are you my love, you are still my love,
we have become the shouting love, we have become the distances,
we miss the happy days,
the days of staying out on the streets,
traffic jams and long promenades,
and we would meet in the old café,
Oh air of Beirut, oh air of the times,
come back Beirut, so that the days would come back,
the second summer came and the moon is broken,
would you forget me, my bitter love,
I came back to my house, I couldn’t find my house,
smoke and corners, no rose or fence,
they are migrating like birds,
dispersed under the night stars,
where do you think are the friends,
where would the tears and nostalgia be.
