A love song for a wife

I was on my way home from work some time ago when I heard this song for the first time in radio IKIM.fm 91.5. I only know some basic Arabics, but I know enough to understand “zaujati uhibbuki, zaujati habibti…” How sweet, it’s a love song for a wife. I started to imagine MHH dedicating (or perhaps even singing?) this song to me, tee hee..

I googled it, and found this. This video clip has English subtitles. I don’t know enough Arabic to tell whether the translation did justice to the original lyrics. Such a soft and sweet song, with such soft and sweet lyrics.



MHH found the lyrics. Thanks, darling :)
