by Idan Raichel featuring Shimon Buskila.
This is the new song from the multi-cultural and most talented musician Idan Raichel.
The beautiful Moroccan lyrics (which were written by the singer Shimon Buskila and displayed under the video) are talking about his mother, but if you turn up the volume and close your eyes, you can feel that the song is about anything that you care most about.
It took me few listens before I started liking the song. Now I love it.
يا ممّا علاش مشيتي/ إنت عمري و حياتي/ دموع عيني فيك يا ممّا/ قريتني و تعدبتي في/ إنت خيالك يا نور عيني/ المّيما إنت الحنينة/ المّيما إنت العزيزة/ غير إنت يا ضو عيني/ شحال جريتي و خممتي في/ توحشت خيالك يا نور عيني/ يا ممّا ضو عيني/إنت مشيتي و خليتني/ يا ممّا/ كيفاش خليتني بلاش/ ونموت بلهموم منهار و الليالي/ أنا و أنا اللي بكيتي علي/ طول عمري مننسك يا غزالي/ فين إنت المّيما/ فين كنتي الحبيبا/ أنا يتيم منهار اللي مشيتي/ أو العديان عملوها بي/ هيل مولانا يفرج عل

Many Rivers To Cross
by Joe Cocker.
Can't take this song out of my head lately.
Many Rivers To Cross
But I Can't Seem To Find My Way Over
Wandering I'm Lost
As I Travel Along The White Cliffs Of Dover
Many Rivers To Cross
And It's Only My Will That Keeps Me Alive
I've Been Ripped, Washed Up For Years
And I Merely Survive Because Of My Pride
And This Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone
It's Such A Drag To Be On Your Own
My Women Left Me But She Wouldn't Say Why
Guess I'll Just Break Right Down And Cry
Many Rivers To Cross
But Just Where To Begin
I'm Playing For Time
There've Been Times I Find Myself
Thinking Of Committing Some Terrible Crime
Still This Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone
It's Such A Drag To Be On Your Own
My Girl Left Me But She Wouldn't Say Why
Guess I'll Just Break Right Down And Cry
Many Rivers To Cross
But I Can't Seem To Find My Way Over
Wandering I Am Lost
As I Travel Along The White Cliffs Of Dover
Many Rivers To Cross
And It's Only My Will That Keeps Me Alive
I've Been Ripped, Washed Up For Years
And I Merely Survive Because Of My Pride
