lyrics

وإحنا بنات العرب احنا من الوطن طلّينا ما نِلبس إلّا الحرير فخر لأهلينا
يا ريت العِز إلنا يندام لنحنّي إيدينا ونقول فرحتنا اليوم يا بعد عينينا
وإحنا بنات القوم إحنا من الوطن طلّينا ما نلبس إلا الحرير فخر لأهلينا
يا ريت العِز إلنا يندام لنحنّي إيدينا ونقول فرحتنا اليوم يا بعد عينينا

عادِتنا نكرِم الضّيف جوّا مضافِنا والإيد تلوّح بالسّيف للّي يعادينا
وإحنا بنات القوم إحنا فرح لأهلينا نار القِرا يا دوم شارِب قهاوينا

وإحنا بنات العرب احنا من الوطن طلّينا ما نِلبس إلّا الحرير فخر لأهلينا
يا ريت العِز إلنا يندام لنحنّي إيدينا ونقول فرحتنا اليوم يا بعد عينينا
وإحنا بنات القوم إحنا من الوطن طلّينا ما نلبس إلا الحرير فخر لأهلينا
يا ريت العِز إلنا يندام لنحنّي إيدينا ونقول فرحتنا اليوم يا بعد عينينا

Lyrics:

And we are the daughters of Arab from the homeland we’ve come
Silk we only wear proud for our folks

How we wish the grandeur remains for us to dye Henna our hands
And to say today is our happiness day oh our lovers

And we are the daughters of Arab from the homeland we’ve come
Silk we only wear proud for our folks

How we wish the grandeur remains for us to dye Henna our hands
And to say today is our happiness day oh our lovers

Our custom to host the guest in our guest house
One hand waving sword for the enemy

And we are the daughters of horde joy for our parents
Our fire is always on for food and coffee

And we are the daughters of Arab from the homeland we’ve come
Silk we only wear proud for our folks

How we wish the grandeur remains for us to dye Henna our hands
And to say today is our happiness day oh our lovers

And we are the daughters of Arab from the homeland we’ve come
Silk we only wear proud for our folks

How we wish the grandeur remains for us to dye Henna our hands
And to say today is our happiness day oh our lovers
