Ojos Asi
Every time I hear this song, I'm reminded of that pool boy with turquoise eyes whom I loved as a child:
Oh, you know I have seen
A sky without sun
A man with no nation
Saints, captive in chains
A song with no name
For lack of imaginationya na he ya he ya na he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
ya na he ya he ya na he
And now it seems, that I
Without your eyes could never beMy one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Traveled all over; the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrein,
Got to Beruit
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yoursRabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidaiCame from Bahrein,
Got to Beruit
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yoursOh, you know I have seen
A woman of means
In rags and begging for pleasure
Crossed, a river of salt
Just after I rode a
ship that sunk in the desertya na he ya he ya na he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
ya na he ya he ya na he
And now it seems, that I
Without your eyes could never beMy one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Traveled all over; the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't giveCame from Bahrein,
Got to Beruit
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yoursRabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidaiCame from Bahrein,
Got to Beruit
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yoursRabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidaiCame from Bahrein,
Got to Beriut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yoursMy one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Traveled all over; the seven oceans
There is nothing I wouldn't giveCame from Bahrein,
Got to Beriut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
