Lyrics:
IT’S A GAME, THAT THEY PLAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHAT A SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHERE ARE YOU IN MY DREAMS?
YOU FEEL SO CLOSE BUT SO FAR
WHEN ALL I WANT IS TO SEE
YOUR FACE IN FRONT OF ME
YOU MAKE ME CHASE AROUND
SHADOWS IN THE MOONLIGHT
ONLY FOR THE SUNRISE
TO OPEN MY EYES
MAKES ME JUMP TO MY FEET
WALK AROUND THE CITY STREETS
HOPING THAT I’LL FIND YOU
BY MY SIDE.
THEN I FEEL YOUR SUNLIGHT
BEAUTIFUL AND SO BRIGHT
FEELING I’M IN YOUR ARMS
FOR A WHILE
HOURS PASS LIKE A BREEZE
MOVING THROUGH THE PALM TREES
HAND IN HAND YOU AND ME
WITH YOUR SMILE
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHAT A SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
(TURKISH)
SEN BENİM NAZLI YARİMSİN
YOU, MY DELICATE BELOVED
SEN BENİM GÖZBEBEĞİMSİN
YOU, THE LIGHT OF MY EYE
SANA GÖNÜLDEN BAĞLANMIŞIM BEN
TIED TO YOU, AT THE HEART
SEN SEVDİĞİM SEVDİCEĞİM
YOU ARE MY DEEPEST LOVE, MY BELOVED
BEN SENİ BİR GÜL GİBİ KOKLARIM
INHALING YOUR SCENT, JUST LIKE SMELLING A ROSE
AŞKINLA TUTUŞUR AŞKINLA YANARIM
BURNING INSIDE, WITH THE FIRE OF YOUR LOVE
HEP SENİ ARAR SENİ SORARIM
I ALWAYS LOOK FOR, AND ASK OF YOU
SANA VARMAK İÇİN HAYAL KURARIM
ALWAYS DREAM OF REACHING YOU
(URDU)
تیرا تصور میرا ہی سکوں ھے
TERA TASAWUR MERA HE SAKOON HAI
THE VERY MENTION OF YOU BECOMES MY TRANQUILITY
تیرا نام لینا میرا ھے جنوں
TERA NAM LEANA MERA HAI JANOON
TO TAKE YOUR NAME, IT BECOMES MY SANITY
وہ میٹھی باتیں تیری ھی سنوں میں
WOH METEE BATEIN TEREE HEE SOONOO MEIN
THOSE SWEET CONVERSATION OF YOURS I WOULD LISTEN TOO
دنیا برا مانے تو میں کیا کروں؟
DUNIYAH BOORA MAA NE THO MEIN KYA KAROO?
IF THE WORLD DEEMS THEM OFFENSIVE, WHAT DO I CARE?
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
WHAT A SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY
شتموه لما جهلوه
SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM
تبعوه لما عرفوا هداه
TABI’UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM
I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE LIKE THE AIR WITH WHICH I BREATHE
SO LET THEM SAY WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY
IT’S THE SAME GAME THEY ALWAYS PLAY
I’LL TURN MY EARS THE OTHER WAY,
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE EITHER WAY
IT’S A GAME THEY’RE ALWAYS GOING TO PLAY
LET THEM SAY WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY
IT’S A GAME
IT’S A GAME
IT’S A GAME
THEY’RE ALWAYS GOING TO PLAY
