Oh, you know I have seen
sky without sun
man with no nation
Saints captive in chains
song with no name
For lack of imagination
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
You know it seems that I
Without your eyes
Could never be

My one desire
All I aspire
Is in your eyes
Forever to live
Traveled all over
Crossed lands and oceans
There's nothing
That I wouldn't give

Came from Bahrein
Got to [bad word] 
Looking for someone [bad word] to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours

Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai

Came from bahrein
Got to [bad word] 
Looking for someone [bad word] to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours

Oh, you know I have seen
woman of means and rags
And begging for pleasure
Crossed a river of salt
The specter I rode
The ship that sank
In the desert

Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
You know it seems that I
Without your eyes
Could never be

My one desire
All I aspire
Is in your eyes
Forever to live
Traveled all over
Crossed lands and oceans
There's nothing
That I wouldn't give

Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai

Came from Bahrein
Got to [bad word] 
Looking for someone [bad word] to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
