Selma - Don't Just Call Me
سلمى وزياد رحباني - مش بس تلفنلي
Mish Bas Telfenli

Selma with Ziad Rahbani - Don't Just Call Me

Don't just call me, don't just say hi to me, remember this title (of the song)
You care about my situation even though you're not who it was
When you bow and kiss, my hand slowly, you think this is an easy thing
Yeah don't call me, yeah don't say hi to me, say it a long time ago (meaning: you're too late)
You care about my situation and this is not what it was
Don't just call me, keep calling me, wake up whoever is around (with all the calls)
You care about my situation and you are not who it was
Why do you just call me, what do you want tell me some kind of explanation
I don't like this silence of yours at all
I'm going to end up in place of her after her or before her give me something like two months
Don't forget that at one time you loved two
I can take what you're saying
I feel that if you just smile everything becomes reasonable
Don't just call me, don't just say hi to me, I have a lot of things going on
You care about my situation, and I don't know what's happening


سلمى وزياد رحباني - مش بس تلفنلي

مش بس تلفنلي مش بس تسلملي حفظلي هالعنوان
بيهمك امري وانت مش مين ما كان
ما انت لما بتنحني وبتبوس
ايدي على مهل فكرك هيدى شي سهل
ايه لا تسلملي ايه لا تلفنلي قللي من زمان
بيهمك أمري وهيدى مش شو ما كان
مش بس تلفنلي ضلك تلفنلي وعّي مين ما كان
بيهمك أمري وانت مش مين ما كان
ليش تلفنلي شو بدك قللي شي تفسير
سكوتك هيدى مانو عجبني كتير
راح صفي بدلها لبعدها و قبلها اعطيني شي شهرين
لا تنسى انك يوما حبيت اتنين
بقدر أحمل شو ما عم بتقول
بشعر بس تبتسم صفى كل شي معقول
مش بس تفلنلي مش بس تسلملي عندي اشيا كتير
بيهمك أمري وما بعرف شو بيصير

Selma with Ziad Rahbani - A Suit against Anonymous
سلمى وزياد رحباني - دعوة ضد مجهول
Daawa Didd Mejhoul

This is off an album sung by Selma and composed by Ziad Rahbani. It's one of the few examples of Arabic jazz that i've seen.



Selma - Call Against an Unknown

This is a suit against anonymous
You fool you drunk

The fool is racing, racing with what
Racing with some unknown

Cmon catch up my darling
Cmon catch up my darling

This is a suit with no limits
You clumsy fool you limited person

This means you mean you're accusing
Everything is present

What will you accomplish my darling?
What will you accomplish my darling?

This is a call against...against...against

سلمى - دعوة ضد مجهول

هاي دعوى ضد مجهول
يا بهلة يا مسطول

البهلة ملاحق، شو ملاحق؟
ملاحق مجهول

تعا حصّل يا حبيبي
وتعا حصّل يا حبيبي

هاي دعوة مالا حدود
يا أخرق يا محدود

هاي يعني بتعني عم تتهم
كل شي موجود

شو حَ تنجح يا حبيبي!
وشو حّ تنجح يا حبيبي

هاى دعوى ضد.. ضد.. ضد.. ضد
!
