Children of the Desert Sky (versie 2)

Intro – Female

Ahh...

Ya leili...

Ya habibi...

Ahh...

Verse 1 – Male

Far beyond the rising sun,

Where the silent rivers run,

I can hear the ancient flame,

Calling softly through my name.

Every footprint leaves a sign,

Every heartbeat echoes time.

From the mountains to the plain,

Life is born through joy and pain.

Pre-Chorus – Female

Ya rouhi... hear the call,

Stars are shining over all.

Ya leili... don't be afraid,

Hope is never meant to fade.

Chorus – Male & Female

Male:

Lift your eyes into the dawn,

Every night is overcome.

Female:

Ya nour... ya habibi...

Stay beside me endlessly.

Together:

Hey ya lo... ya leili ya...

The desert sings beneath the moon.

Hey ya lo... ya salam ya...

Morning always comes too soon.

Raise the fire...

Raise the light...

Let our voices fill the night.

Instrumental Break

Female Vocalise

Ahh...

Ya la la...

Ya leili...

Na ya hey...

Verse 2 – Female

The qanun whispers to the breeze,

The ney is dancing through the trees.

Every note becomes a prayer,

Floating gently through the air.

The dunes are glowing amber bright,

Like a sea beneath the night.

Every dream begins to bloom,

Breaking every fear and gloom.

Bridge – Male

I don't seek a crown of gold,

Only stories yet untold.

Where the eagle spreads its wings,

Every hopeful spirit sings.

Bridge – Female

Ya amar... light the way,

Guide our hearts until the day.

Ya rouhi... hold me near,

Love is stronger than our fear.

Final Chorus – Together

Hey ya lo... ya leili ya...

One horizon, one desire.

Hey ya lo... ya nour ya...

Every soul becomes the fire.

The stars above,

The earth below,

Together we will always grow.

Through every storm,

Through every sea,

Forever one...

Forever free.

Outro – Female

Ahh...

Ya leili...

Ya habibi...

The moon is watching...

The wind is calling...

Forever alive...
