Helwa Ya Baladi

A sweet word and a couple of sweet words, my land
A sweet song and a couple of sweet songs, my land
My hope has always been, my land, to come back to you
My land, and to always stay by your side

And memories of all that's past, I remember, my land
My heart is full of stories, I remember, my land
My first love was in my land, I can never forget
My land, where are the days before goodbye?

We used to say that parting was impossible
And every tear on our cheeks would fall
Filled with hope that we would still be here
In the sea of love on both shores

A sweet word and a couple of sweet words, my land
A sweet song and a couple of sweet songs, my land
Where's the love of my heart, my land, he was far from me
My land, and every time I sing, I think of him

Say, my love, where are you going, leaving me behind?
The sweetest melody, we’ll sing it, just us two
How lovely is the word 'land' in a two-line song
Oh night, oh eyes, oh eyes, oh night
Oh my night, oh my night, night

A sweet word and a couple of sweet words, my land
A sweet song and a couple of moonlit songs, my land
My hope has always been, my land, to come back to you
My land, and to always stay by your side
Moonlight, my land

Sweet land, my land
