راس قمة

“Top of the Mountain”

Pronounced: Ras Qimmah

Emirati Song

Written by Hanzal

يكفي طعونه.. سامح الله طعونه

Enough of stabbing, may God forgive his stabbing

Yakfy to’oona… Samah Allah to’oona

ماني تحت أنا على راس قمه

I’m not down, I’m on top of the peak (mountain)

Manny tahet ana ala ras qimmah

مابغي عيونه.. جعل تسلم عيونه

I don't want his eyes, may his eyes stay safe

Ma bghy oyonah… Ja’al tslm oyoonah

عندي كثير أشياء غيره مهمه

I have many things more important than him

Indy ktheer ashya ghaira mohima

قولوله إن الغيم جفت مزونه

Tell him that the clouds have dried their rain

Gololah ena elgaim jafat mzoonah

ووجه الحياوي فوّر الغدر دمه

And the face of the brave is boiling with the blood of betrayal

Weh wajh elhayawi fawar algadr damah

ماتوقف الدنيا على هالنمونة

Life doesn’t stop because on people like these

Matogaf aldenya ala hal nomonah

ماحاتي فراقه.. ولاشلت همه

I don’t care about separating, nor do I carry any worries

Mahaty efragah… Wla shlt hammah

***

معاه انا عايش وعايش بدونه

With him, I’m alive; without him, I’m alive

Ma’ah ana ayish w’ayish bdonah

ماني يتيم و حده الشوق لامه

I’m not an orphan, just longing for his mother

Manny ytem w’hadah el shog lammah

مني عليه اخاف تطلع جنونه

I’m afraid because of him my madness might come out

Mny alaih akhaf tetla jnoonah

وفراقي له بدعي عسى الله يتمه

And our separation, I’ll pray that God completes it

W’fragy lah bad’ee asa Allah ytimah

***

ماتت علاقه والسبب من ظنونه

A relationship died, and the cause was his thoughts

Matet elaqa w’elsbab mn dnoonah

مثل الزهر لامات محدٍ يشمه

Like a flower when it dies, no one smells it

Mthl al zaher lamat mahdin yshimah

وإن كان نفسه للتلاقي حنونه

And if his soul is longing for meeting

W’en kan nafsah lel talagy hanoona

عنده خيالي لا تضايق… يضمه

He has my memory, when he’s upset… Let him embrace that

Endah khayaly la t’thayag… Ythmah
