Words ( كلمات)

Lyrics: Nizar Qabbani
Composer: Ihsan Munzir

He tells me, while dancing with me, words that are not like any other words...
He takes me from my arm and plants me in one of the clouds
While the black rain falls from my eyes in heavy drops
He takes me with him to an evening with rosy balconies
And I am just like a child in his hands
Like a feather carried by the breeze
He gives me sun...He gives me summer...And a flock of swallows
He tells me that I am his masterpiece and I am worth thousands of stars
And that I am a treasure...and I am the best portrait he has ever seen
He tells me things that make me dizzy...make me forget the dance and the moves
Words that turn over my history...and make me a woman in moments!!
He builds me a castle of illusions where I live only for moments!!
And I go back to my table... Having nothing with me.... But words!!
Words that aren't like any other words....
I have nothing but Words... Words... Words.
