If I Could Go Back In Time - لو أرجع بالزمن Lyrics by DAM

Dabke on the Moon

2012

English After Arabic
[المقطع الاول - سهيل نفار]
قبل ما تقتل ما كانت عايشه
نسرد قصتها بالعكس من الجريمة للولادة
جثتها قفزت من الحفرة لحفة الأرض
طلقة طلعت من جبينها وأنبلعت بالفرد
صدى صوتها صرخ وهي ردّت عليه
دموعها تصعد من الخد للعينين
من وره غيمة الدخان وجوه العيلة
أخوها بلا خجل حط الفرد بالجيبة
الأب نزل المجراف دهن عرق عجبينو
وبهزة راس أكتفى من القبر ومقاييسو
جرّوها عالسيارة, هي تضرب بأقدامها
كعاصفة رمال تمحي أثر دعساتها
دخلوها عالبكاج ، مش عارفة لوين
بس عارفة أنهم طلعو 3 وراجعين تنين
وصلو البيت رموها بعنف عالتخت
( بدك تهربي برّه البلاد آه؟)
صحوها بضرب
[اللازمة - أمل مرقص]
لو أرجع بالزمن
كنت ببتسم ، بعشق ، كنت بغني
لو أرجع بالزمن
كنت برسم ، بكتب ، كنت بغني
[المقطع الثاني - محمود جريري]
قبل ما تغفى كانت تحلم
نعكس حياتها علينا بركن نفهم
عقارب الساعة تتحرك من اليمين لليسار
بتراجع خطواتها مثل اللي تاهت بمسار
نامت جاهزة كم من قرش للتاكسي
تذكرة وجواز سفر تحت الوسادة
الجواب: خلّي الأواعي بالخزانة ، بتلبس حياة جديدة
وأذا سألوها لأيش الحقيبة
وأستأذنت للنوم قامت عن الطاولة
أكلت منيح مجبورة تمثل اليوم
الأنف وقّف نزيفو هيك مبينلهم
بس الجرح طري قبل ما يثبتوها حتثبتلهم
أمها عاتبتها حياتك جنة
صدقت لما ندوق الممنوع فش أشي بتخبى
سيعتين قبل العشا السماعة أنطرقت
"الأم أنصدمت "قولولها الطيارة تأجلت
رن التلفون...
[اللازمة - أمل مرقص]
[المقطع الثالث - تامر نفار]
قبل ما تخطب ما انسألت سرد قصتها
كالمعايير بحياتها أنعكست
أيديها قبال وجهها طالبة النجدة
أيدين الحواليها قبال وجههم بقرؤا الفاتحة
ورقة الرزنامة انقلبت يوم لورا
سيعة مسا النقاش أنتهى أخوها أمر
شلال دم بجري من شفايفها وبنصب بالأنف
صوت لكمة من وجهها أنطلقت أيد الأخ
لأول مرة بحياتها بترفض
أمها أعلنت بفرح "بكرة أبن عمك جاي يطلب"
أذا بمسك ألبوم حياتها وبقلّب
ما بصدف صورة فيها هي ماخدة موقف
مستصعب ، الصفحات بأيدي تلزّق
الماضي ملطّخ بدم وعيون تدمّع
بس وعدتكم ، من الجريمة للولادة وجوههم غاضبة
"كأنه خبروهم بجريمة "مبروك ، أجتكم بنت
البداية...
[اللازمة - أمل مرقص]
كنت بغني
If I Could Go Back In Time
‏Suhel Nafar:
‏Before she was murdered, she wasn't alive
‏We'll tell her story backwards from her murder to her birth
‏Her body rises from the grave to the ground
‏The bullet flies out of her forehead and swallowed into the gun
‏The sound of her echo screams, she screams back
‏Tears rise up from her cheeks to her eyes
‏Behind the clouds of smoke, faces of her family appear
‏Without shame, her brother puts the gun in his pocket
‏Her father throws down the shovel and wipes the sweat off his forehead
‏He shakes his head, satisfied from the size of the grave
‏They drag her back to the car, her legs kicking
‏Like a sand storm, she's erasing her own tracks
‏They throw her in the trunk, she doesn't know where she is
‏But she knows that three left the house and only two will return
‏They reach the house; throw her to the bed in violence
‏"So you want run away huh?" they wake her with violence
‏Amal Murkus (Chorus)
‏If I could go back in time
‏I would smile
‏Fall in love
‏Sing
‏If I could go back in time
‏I would draw
‏Write
‏Sing
‏Mahmood Jrere:
‏She dreams before falling asleep
‏We'll tell her story backwards, maybe understand
‏The clock hands move right to left
‏She reconstructs her steps as if she were lost
‏She sleeps prepared, money for the taxi
‏Plane ticket and passport under her pillow
‏Answer: leave the clothes in the closet; she plans to wear a new life
‏Question: what if they ask what the suitcase is for?
‏She went to bed, leaves table
‏Eats well, she must act today
‏Her nose stops bleeding, that's what they see
‏But it's a fresh wound; before they will beat her she will beat them
‏Her mom says "your life is like heaven"
‏She's right, if you taste the forbidden you better know someone is watching
‏Two hours before dinner, the phone hangs up
‏Her mom is shocked "the flight is delayed"
‏Phone rings
‏ Amal Murkus (Chorus)
‏Tamer Nafar:
‏Before she answers, she isn't even asked
‏The story is like the logic in her life, all backwards
‏Her hands up in the sky, begging for help
‏Their hands up in the sky reciting the Fatiha (ceremony before marriage)
‏The calendar page moves one day back, the time is
‏Afternoon, the argument is over, her brother commands her
‏Blood flows from her lips to her nose
‏A sound of a fist, his hand jumps from her face
‏It's the first time in her life that she says "NO!"
‏Her mom announces happily "tomorrow you will marry your cousin"
‏If I look through the album of her life
‏I won't see a photo of her standing up for her rights
‏It's hard, the pages are stuck to my hand
‏Her past full of blood and tears
‏But we promise you, from her murder to her birth
‏Their expressions filled with anger as if someone announced a crime
‏"Congratulations, it's a girl"
‏The beginning
