غيبي يا شمس غيبي
ghiby ya shames agiby
set, oh sun, set!

مالي عليهم عتب عتبي على حالي
maly 3alaihom 3atab, 3ataby 3la 7aly
I don't blame them, I blame myself

وأم الجدايل شقر هي اللي خذت بالي
w om el jedayl shogor hya elly akhthat baly
and the one with the blonde braids, she took my mind (meaning she's always on my mind)
غيبي يا شمس غيبي
ghiby ya shames agiby
set, oh sun, set!
وبلكي بورد حبيبي
w balki bawred 7abiby
and maybe I'll go to my lover
والله يقطع نصيبه
w allah yg6a3 naseebo
and may allah stop his share or part (meaning stop giving him anything he wants)
ياللي قطع لي بنصيبي
elly yg6a3 naseeby
who gets in the way of what I want
يا هليلي هويت الغربة
ya halayly hwayt el ghorbe
oh my people, I fell in love with (ghorbe: leaving home)

same3 meno 3eenaiee
I hear from him 3eenainee
والعنيني اعني شوقي
w el 3eenaine a3ni shogy
and el 3eenaine means my longing
وشلون الصبر يجيني
w shlon el sabr yjeeny
and how patience [bad word] to me?
وعمداً ما جيتك عمدا
w 3amdan ma jeetk 3amdan
and on purpose I [bad word] to you, on purpose
أنتي لحالك جيتيني
enti l7alek jeeteeni
and you on your own came to me
ذبحتيني يا ولوه
theb7teeni ya woloa
you slaughtered me (meaning killed me)
وبحبك قتلتيني
w b7obek getalteeni
and in your love you killed me
غيبي يا شمس غيبي
ghiby ya shames agiby
set, oh sun, set!
وبلكي بورد حبيبي
