This is one of the most wonderful songs I have ever heard. It is in Arabic, sung by: Medhat Saleh. It is the song of the movie: Amir El-Dhalaam (Prince of the Dark), starring: Adel Imam.
The story is about a military pilot who lost his eye-sight but never lost his inner sight nor his vision. He confronted a gang of terrorists to abort a terroristic operation and saved the residents of the house where he resides.
The song is played on the occasion of honouring this blind hero. So many touching and stimulating words along with lovely music embraced the meanings of heroism, courage, and inner strength that everyone of us possesses and must make use of.
It is a must-hear song! You can hear it on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwHT5akY2w0
The lyrics in Arabic are: (Please scroll down for English translation)
النور مكانه فى القلوب..احضن خيوط شمس الغروب
يا تكون قد الحياة..يا تعيش وحيد وسط الدروب
اليأس ضعف وخوف جبان..لكن الأمل يفتح بيبان
يا تكون قد الحياة..يا تعيش وحيد وسط الدروب
المس خضار الشجر..حس بضياء القمر
انقش قلوب ع الحجر..على شىء ما تندمشى
يمّك قوام عديه..امشى الطريق امشيه
العمر إيه يرويه..غير قلب ما يخافشى
***********
النور مكانه فى القلوب..احضن خيوط شمس الغروب
يا تكون قد الحياة..يا تعيش وحيد وسط الدروب
فيه ناس كتير ترضى المصير..وناس تشوف بضمير ضرير
يا تكون قد الحياة..يا تعيش وحيد وسط الدروب
حلى مرار الايام..لسة الحياة قدام
قوم لوّن الأحلام..واوعى ما تضحكشى
جسدك فى قلبه الروح..تداوى كل جروح
بالسر إوعى تبوح..واياك ما تحلمشى
Translation:
Only hearts can really see .. Hug the rays at the sunset
Be up to the struggles of life, or stay lonely on your way
Despair is weakness and coward fear.. But hope opens many doors,
Be up to the struggles of life, or stay lonely on your way
Touch the green of trees..feel the light of the moon
Carve hearts on the hard stones..Never regret anything you’ve done
Go on and quickly pass over your trembling sea..Move on your way
What can ever nurture your life..other than a fearless heart?
***************************
Only hearts can really see .. Hug the rays at the sunset
Be up to the struggles of life, or stay lonely on your way
So many are those passive people..So many are those who have no conscience,
Be up to the struggles of life, or stay lonely on your way
You can sweeten up life’s bitterness..Life is still there to be lived
You can colour the dreams..Never give up laughter
Your soul is still there in your body..It can heal up any scars
Never reveal your secrets..Never give up dreaming……………………….
I suggest this translation:
Only Hearts Can Really See
(Hug the rays of the setting Sun..)
