Khekaya (A Story) – Lyrics: Marzouk Khalabi / Music: Salem Darwish
"One day, I don't know how, they put a brick on top of a brick and there was a
house."

חיכאיה (סיפור) - מלים: מרזוק חלבי / לחן: סאלם דרוויש
"יום אחד, אני לא יודעת איך, שמו אבן על אבן ונהיה בית."

حكاية - كلمات مرزوق حلبي / ألحان سالم درويش
"في يوم مادري كيف ؟ حطوا حجار فوق حجار صاروا دا."

lyrics

One day
I don't know how
One stone was laid upon another
And they became a house
At the entrance they planted a mulberry tree and a laurel bush

The yard filled with young children
Pomegranates grew in the garden
And every evening birds of the mountain circled the house in flight
One stone was laid upon another
They became a house

יום אחד
אני לא יודעת איך
הניחו אבן על אבן
נהיה בית
שתלו בשער הבית תות ודפנה

וגינת הבית התמלאה אחים קטנים
וסביב החצר גדלו רימונים
וכל ערב סבו ציפורי ההר סביב הבית
אבן על אבן
נהיה בית

شي يوم
مدري كيف
حطوا حجار فوق حجار
صارو دار
وغرسوا ع باب الدار توته وغار

وامتلى حوش البيت إخوة صغار
والحاكورة طلعت رمانها زنار

وصارت عصافير الجبل
ع البيت تعمل كل مسا مشوار

وحجار فوق حجار
صارو دار
