The truthful sound of egyptian thunder

I have never imagined there was one with such spirit, courage and grasp on words as i had found out today in Sheikh Imam, that was the first time i hear his songs, and i have to say that one called Anadeekom "I beckon you" brought me to tears, it goes as follows:

I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you .... I kiss the ground beneath your shoes and i sacrifice myself to you .... and I grant you the light in my eyes .... and all my heart i give you ... for the tragedy in which i live is my share of your tragedies

I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you .... I kiss the ground beneath your shoes and i sacrifice myself to you .... and I grant you the light in my eyes .... and all my heart i give you ... for the tragedy in which i live is my share of your tragedies

I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you
I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you

I have not let my country down... nor have i lowered my shoulders... i stood against my opressors... an orphan .... naked and barefooted
I have not let my country down... nor have i lowered my shoulders... i stood against my opressors... an orphan .... naked and barefooted

I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you
I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you

I have not let my country down... nor have i lowered my shoulders... i stood against my opressors... an orphan .... naked and barefooted
I have not let my country down... nor have i lowered my shoulders... i stood against my opressors... an orphan .... naked and barefooted

Held my blood in my palm ... and never did i lower my flag
Held my blood in my palm ... and never did i lower my flag

and i maintained that pasture beneath which my ancestors lay

I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you I'm calling you .... I'm calling you .... I beckon you

The strange Salah Jahin

إنسان أيا إنسان ما أجهلكما أتفهك في الكون و ما أضألك شمس وقمر وسدوم وملايين نجوم و فاكرها ياموهوم مخلوقه لك!! عجبي !!

nothingness

what if sunrise fell in love with sunset?

would there be a day?

What if sunrise walked away?

What if sunset changed?

How can an end meet with the beginning?

except if it were a circle, but then a circle is endless, life isn't

it's all too confusing ... i have a bad cold and i need to go to sleep

Doors and Windows

Lonely
But real

if there was a window
you may have seen

if there was a door
i wouldn't be lonely

Only me!

أنا ما حبش لا السياسة ولا فتة الكوارع (اديها اتش في الكلتش) ا

أنا مش بتاع سياسة ولا كلام كتير
كل همي المرتب اللي أول ما ييجي يطير

أنا مش بتاع مظاهرات و لا معارضة و منشورات
أنا بتاع اللمبي ، هنيدي و بورات

ما تقلب تضرب أنا مالي ..كبر دماغك تعيش
الحرامي حيفضل حرامي و الفساد ما بيختشيش

اديها اتش في الكلتش و ارقص في على المدرجات
الحكم الشرير سبب القرف نديله بالروصيات

روش عربيتك تعيش مع المزز و الحشيش
ادي الدنيا صرمة واللي مش عاجبه ما يلزمنيش

اديها اتش في الكلتش و برشت على ميدو القليط
هي الدنيا كدة الحرامي بيخلف عبيط

اوعى تعزي الغلابة اللي عيالهم غرقوا في الغويط
بسذاجتهم كانوا فاكرين الفساد ما بيعرفش يعوم في البحر الكبير
