Rim Banna / ريم بنا‎,
ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻠﻌﺎﻟﻢ ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻪ [1]
ﻋﻦ ﺑﻴﺖٍ ﻛَﺴﺮﻭﺍ ﻗِﻨﺪﻳﻠﻪ
ﻋﻦ ﻓﺄﺱٍ ﻗﺘﻠﺖ ﺯﻧﺒﻘﺔً
ﻭﺣﺮﻳﻖٍ ﺃﻭﺩﻯ ﺑﺠﺪﻳﻠﺔ ..

ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻋﻦ ﺷﺎﺓٍ ﻟﻢ ﺗُﺤﻠﺐ
ﻋﻦ ﻋَﺠﻨﺔِ ﺃُﻡّ ﻣﺎ ﺧُﺒﺰﺕ
ﻋﻦ ﺳﻘﻒٍ ﻃﻴﻨﻲّ ﺃﻋﺸﺐ
ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻠﻌﺎﻟﻢ ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻪ ..

ﻳﺎ ﺑﻨﺖَ ﺍﻟﺠﺎﺭِ ﺍﻟﻤﻨﺴﻴّﺔ
ﺍﻟﺪُّﻣﻴﺔ ﻋﻨﺪﻱ ﻣﺤﻤﻴّﺔ
ﺍﻟﺪُّﻣﻴﺔ ﻋﻨﺪﻱ ﻓَﺘﻌﺎﻟﻲ
ﻓﻲ ﺑﺎﺹِ ﺍﻟﺮّﻳﺢ ﺍﻟﺸﺮﻗﻴّﺔ ..

ﺣﻨّﺎ ﻻ ﺃﺫﻛﺮُ ﻗَﺴﻤﺎﺗﻚ
ﻟﻜﻨﻲ ﺃﺷﻘﻰ ﻛﻲ ﺃﺫﻛﺮ
ﻓﻲ ﻗﻠﺒﻲ ﺧَﻔﻘﺔُ ﺧﻄﻮﺍﺗﻚ
ﻋﺼﻔﻮﺭٌ ﻳَﺪﺭﺝ ﺃﻭ ينقر ..

ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻠﻌﺎﻟﻢ ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻪ
ﻋﻦ ﺑﻴﺖٍ ﻛَﺴﺮﻭﺍ ﻗِﻨﺪﻳﻠﻪ
ﻋﻦ ﻓﺄﺱٍ ﻗﺘﻠﺖ ﺯﻧﺒﻘﺔً
ﻭﺣﺮﻳﻖٍ ﺃﻭﺩﻯ ﺑﺠﺪﻳﻠﺔ ..

ﻛُﻨّﺎ ﻣﺎ ﺃﺟﻤﻞَ ﻣﺎ ﻛُﻨّﺎ
ﻳﺎ ﺑﻨﺖَ ﺍﻟﺠﺎﺭِ ﻭﻳﺎ ﺣﻨّﺎ
ﻛﻨّﺎ ﻓﻠﻤﺎﺫﺍ ﺃﻋﻴﻨﻨﺎ
ﺻﺎﺭﺕ ﺑﺎﻟﻐﺮﺑﺔ ﻣﺠﺒﻮﻟﺔ
ﻭﻟﻤﺎﺫﺍ ﺻﺎﺭﺕ ﺃﻳﺪﻳﻨﺎ
ﺑﺤﺒﺎﻝِ ﺍﻟﻠﻌﻨﺔ ﻣﺠﺪﻭﻟﺔ ..

ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻠﻌﺎﻟﻢ ﺃﺣﻜﻲ ﻟﻪ
ﻋﻦ ﺑﻴﺖٍ ﻛَﺴﺮﻭﺍ ﻗِﻨﺪﻳﻠﻪ
ﻋﻦ ﻓﺄﺱٍ ﻗﺘﻠﺖ ﺯﻧﺒﻘﺔً
ﻭﺣﺮﻳﻖٍ ﺃﻭﺩﻯ ﺑﺠﺪﻳﻠﺔ

Tell the World

Tell the world, tell it
Of a house whose lanterns they have broken
Of an axe that killed the lily flower
And of a fire that eradicated a braid of hair

Speak of some cattle that were not milked
Of a mother's paste that was yet to be baked
Of a grassy mud roof
Tell the world, tell it

O, forgotten neighbor's daughter!
The doll is with me, safeguarded
The doll is with me, so come back
In the eastern winds' bus

Hanna, I do not remember your oaths
However, I strive to remember
In my heart are the beats of your steps
Like a bird that wanders or that pecks

Tell the world, tell it
Of a house whose lanterns they have broken
Of an axe that killed the lily flower
And of a fire that eradicated a braid of hair

We were the best we could be,
It could not have been any better,
O, neighbor's daughter, and O, Hanna
We were such, so why have our eyes
Become so fixed on estrangement?
And why have our hands
Become bound with cursed ropes?

Tell the world, tell it
Of a house whose lanterns they have broken
Of an axe that killed the lily flower
And of a fire that eradicated a braid of hair
