"Silent Words" lyrics
Beyond the lines of no man's land
Time stands still
My voice is weak, but far away, I softly speak
In silent words, on folded knees
With silent words we call the night
To bring you sleep and dry your eyes
To bring you dreams and free your minds
When every hope has gone, we hold on
With silent words we'll ask the dawn
To chase your fears when nights are long
A million voices in to one
When every hope has gone
We echo all night through
With silent words we are with you
Where seeds were thrown, and taken far
A desert blooms a world apart
And while their roots are far from home
We whisper words to help them grow
With silent words we call the night
To bring you sleep and dry your eyes
To bring you dreams and free your minds
When every hope has gone, we hold on
With silent words we'll ask the dawn
To chase your fears when nights are long
A million voices in to one
When every hope has gone
We echo all night through
With silent words we are with you
With every tear you cry, we'll comfort you
Standing by your side, as one with you
You can find us, deep in the silence
Carried in the soft winds passing through
We'll be your shadow, today and tomorrow
There to follow everything you do
الهي، أدخل السرور
[Illahi adkhil asurroor]
[Lord bring hapiness]
ياربِ أسعد القلوب
[Wa as3id al-quloob]
[And cheer the hearts]
الهي، خفف الآلام
[Illahi khafif al-alaam]
[Lord, alleviate the pain]
من لسوريا سواك؟
[Man li-sooriyya siwaak?]
[Who can save Syria other than You?]
من يحيي بسمةَ الحزين؟
[Mann yu7yyi basmatal-7azeen?]
[Who can restore the smile of the depressed?]
من يُنسي أنّةَ المسكين؟
[Mann yunsi annatal-miskeen?]
[Who can soothe (alleviate) the soreness of the poor?]
من يمسح دمعَ اليتيم؟
[Mann yamsa7 dam3al-yateem?]
[Who can wipe the tear of an orphan?]
أبكي بصمتٍ وأنين
[Abki bi-ssamtin wa aneen]
[Silently, I cry and moan]
عن شيخ، شاب، ويتيم
[3an shaiyykhin, shaaban wa yateem]
[For an old man, a young man and an orphan]
عنكِ يا...آه سوريا
[3anki ya...ah sooriyya]
[About you...ah Syria]
Time stands still
My voice is weak, but far away, I softly speak
In silent words, on folded knees
With silent words we call the night
To bring you sleep and dry your eyes
To bring you dreams and free your minds
When every hope has gone, we hold on
With silent words we'll ask the dawn
To chase your fears when nights are long
A million voices in to one
When every hope has gone
We echo all night through
With silent words we are with you
Where seeds were thrown, and taken far
A desert blooms a world apart
And while their roots are far from home
We whisper words to help them grow
With silent words we call the night
To bring you sleep and dry your eyes
To bring you dreams and free your minds
When every hope has gone, we hold on
With silent words we'll ask the dawn
To chase your fears when nights are long
A million voices in to one
When every hope has gone
We echo all night through
With silent words we are with you
With every tear you cry, we'll comfort you
Standing by your side, as one with you
You can find us, deep in the silence
Carried in the soft winds passing through
We'll be your shadow, today and tomorrow
There to follow everything you do
