Emanouel Bet Younan - Ma'eriwa

la ma3erwa leh makhdeyat, libbee shmee6a o khishana
apen d'et shopra b'ar3atakh, l'shoprakh lewin saghdana
nokhrayewin lakha ana, deranen len peshana
sneeqewin l'doh hawa d'atree, hawakh eleh khanqana

--

kha pa'wa m'elaneh d'atree, haweh milya min 6onta
leh yawinneh b'kol dawilta, gwilta b'mrar o sominta
lakhma barooza d'akhlinneh, am awahee go beta
bosh spayeeleh d'khayin malka, go malkoota nokhreta

mokhnewin min khdaryateh, m'khorawateh d'madrasee
ah ganee sniqtela l'napas, bet nahrain ela napasee
ya ma3erwa marweyanta, dakhee bit hawin ridya
aten l'etotee be blayet, o ana min qalee qi6ya

--

la ma3erwa lenwa khsheewa, o la qad peshinwa leema
ahela d'pishtela mirta, o 6osa l'kol pomma rteema
qala d'dahoola m'rikhqa, gargimmana o baseema
makhli6ana l'kol shamana, o edyom l'ahwalee psheema

--

oh khobba d'amraneh d'atree, milya m'khnana o sipyoota
bekhaya go daha kyanee, pomma b'atourayoota
apen edyo rokhqinnewin, b'libbee etin wa'doota
o khda hemanta tleeta b'qdalee, o dirta b'dimmeh d'sahdoota

nisyaneh d'khayeh belyapa, sniqtela d'peshakh b'shopan
qad shimmah la ateh l'shyapa, hadkha zona maloopan
kol khda omta d'baya khaya, o waleh d'pesha al arra
asrala ganoh b'tash3eetoh, o b'yolpana b'garwis zarr'oh
