Qolli Ahiboka (Say "I love you")
Qolli ahiboka, kay tazeeda wasamati
Tell me, "I Love You", so my beauty may increase.
Fa be ghair hobiki la akoono gameelan.
For without your love, I can't be beautiful.
Qolli ahiboka kay taseera asaba-ee dahaban
Tell me, "I Love You", so my fingers can turn to gold.
Wa tosbeha gabhti kandeelan.
And my brow can light up like a candle.
Alan akoliha! Wala tataradadi.
Say it now! And do not hesitate,
Baadan hawa la yakbalo takjilan
For some love cannot stand to wait.
(Chorus)
Saghir el takwim law ahbabtini,
I would change the calendar if you loved me,
Amho fesoolan aw adif fesoolan.
Erase seasons, or add seasons.
We saientahi el asr el kadim ala yadi,
The old period would end under my hands,
We akim azimatan el nisa badilan.
And I would establish a kingdom of women in its place.
